You seem to forget that Kulemin's previous 2.350mil contract was a two year deal signed before the 10/11 season. He is not being given a raise based on last year's totals alone. He was given a raise based on his overall work ethic, defensive game and for scoring 30 goals 2 seasons ago. But it is not just those personal reasons and attributes that warranted a minor raise. The cap has gone up and as evident with some of the signings seen this off season, market value has gone up as well. 2.8mil for Kulemin is an excellent deal imo.
Go Leafs Go!
