The contractThe San Jose Sharks signed center Macklin Celebrini to a five-year extension with an $18.8 million AAV.Dom Luszczyszyn: There’s been a lot of sticker shock this summer when it comes to contracts. It doesn’t matter if it’s RFAs or UFAs, everyone is getting paid — often a little too much. That’s the nature of the current salary landscape with a rapidly exploding cap, where every franchise has more space to spend than ever before.Make no mistake, though, Macklin Celebrini’s extension does not qualify in the “overpaid” category. Quite the contrary, actually. Even on what will be the league’s richest deal when it starts in 2027-28, Celebrini will be a slight bargain at $18.8 million per season.Considering recent deals signed for Leo Carlsson ($18 million AAV, five years) and Connor Bedard ($15 million AAV, five years), overpaying future superstars has been en vogue this summer. The same will likely apply to Adam Fantilli, who’s rumored to come in around $13 million or $14 million. They’re deals that each player could grow into, but there’s a stronger chance that it’s an overpay throughout. That’s not the case for Celebrini, whose market value trumps what he’s being paid: On a five-year deal, it’s $20.6 million. On Day 1, this deal is already good business.There’s a real chance it will look even better, too.Celebrini is far from a finished product and has all the tools to take his game to even further heights than the ones he already flashed last year, when he finished fourth in Hart Trophy voting. The defensive toolkit suggests further growth to one day become the game’s most complete player and he is the obvious heir-apparent to Connor McDavid as a potential future Best Player In The World.
