Mike Hoffman goes to arbitration on July 30. He's asked for $3.4-million, while the Sens have offered $1.75-million. Here's what I think he should get.
Last week Alex Chiasson went to arbitration. My article argued that he should get $1.4-million, and he in fact got $1.2-million. Based on that success, I've decided to try my hand at a more difficult player: Mike Hoffman. He goes to arbitration on July 30. Here's a look at some comparables.
First of all, here are his comparables from a raw numbers perspective. His 48 points put him tied for 95th in the league with Mikko Koivu, David Desharnais, and Valtteri Filppula.
