The comparison
What a point costs elsewhere
Same math for the league's top scorers who have a published 2026-27 cap hit. Shorter bar means a cheaper point. Points are live as of the last refresh.
Every player gets the same number of paid days (counted from Vancouver's opener), so the comparison is about the points, not the calendar. Cap hit, not actual salary. Close enough to be rude.
Rain gauge
Every game, every drop
One drop per point. Gold drops are goals. A red line means he got wet for nothing.

The forecast
To be fair to the man: he's producing. Point a hose at the standings, not at him. We just like the math.
How it's calculated
The math
- Daily pay:
$11,600,000 ÷ 194= per day. 194 is our stand-in for the length of the paid regular season. - Paid so far: daily pay × days since Vancouver's first regular-season game (), capped at 194. It ticks every second.
- Cost per point / goal: paid so far ÷ his points / goals this season.
- Cost per standings point: paid so far ÷ Vancouver's points in the standings.
- We use the AAV, not his actual 2026-27 salary or bonus structure. Treat every dollar figure as an estimate.
