Interesting: Frank Nazar will be the 73rd highest paid forward when his new extension begins in 2026-27. Nazar finished the season with 10 points in his final 11 games with the #Blackhawks this past season, and had a clutch moment against the #Canadiens on the road to hold them out of a playoff spot temporarily. Nazar will be making less than Mikael Granlund, Troy Terry, Brock Boeser, Andrei Svechnikov, and more in 2026-27, and that list will only continue to grow as the deal goes on and the cap continues to rise.
