On today's episode of Locked on Wild, we discuss Brock Faber and what a long term extension might look like. We look at all of the things Faber has done in his rookie season, from playing a high level of minutes, to helping on the Power Play, Penalty Kill, top defensive pairings and more, and what he will continue to bring on the offensive side of the puck and in the leadership department too. We discuss recent long term deals across the NHL, from Cale Makar and Rasmus Dahlin, to Quinn Hughes and Jake Sanderson, to try to find a middle ground for Faber. We also discuss recent examples of long term deals for young players that feature high AAV early in the deal to try to maximize the final years such as Matt Boldy and Joel Eriksson Ek. Mark us down for predicting an 8x8 for Faber sometime in the summer!
