Dubinsky re-ups with Columbus $35.1m over 6 years

I don't understand things anymore.  Maybe it's just me, but a guy that's topped out at 54 points isn't a $5.85m player on my team.

Well, considering that top tier players will be making 10+ a year rather than 8 or 9+ there's going to be some growth in the middle classes as well.

I think there's also a bit of location premium going on here.  Places like Edmonton, Winnipeg, and Columbus may have to tack on a percentage to get guys to sign there.
