Trying To Project Fabian Zetterlund's Next Contract

Fabian Zetterlund had a breakout season for the San Jose Sharks and is entering the last season of his current contract. What are some comparable contracts if the Sharks wanted to lock up Zetterlund long-term? Start by looking at Zetterlund's production from 2023-24 and what ESPN is projecting for Zetterlund to do in the 2024-25 season. Examine Seattle Kraken Eeli Tolvanen's new contract and compare production between Tolvanen and Zetterlun. Then, while Alexis Lafrenière is a more skilled player than Zetterlund, their production is similar. How could Lafrenière's upcoming contract affect Zetterlund's? Next, Joel Farabee and Fabian Zetterlund have had similar production. Should Farabee's contract provide a template? Finally, try to determine a fair contract for both Zetterlund and the Sharks and why the Sharks should look to lock up Zetterlund long term.
