Cole Caufield's eight-year extension is a tidy bit of business for the Canadiens NickAshbourne

are that it will sit at $83.5 million — meaning Caufield will account for 9.4% of the Canadiens' cap. That's a reasonable number for a guy who's clearly the most gifted goal scorer on the roster, but unlike a number of NHL stars' recent extensions, Caufield will probably get cheaper and cheaper over time in relative terms.NHL teams could have $87.5 million to work with in 2024-25 and $92.5 million in 2025-26. That means a couple years down the line, Caufield will cost just 8.

It's possible that Caufield's 123 games are a small sample over-representing his true talent, or injuries become a problem for him again.
