I'm confused, I thought you are not allowed to have a contract where the highest paid year is more than double the lowest paid year.

could be because he's getting paid more and more every year, so it's not like one of those front loaded contracts where the guy won't play out his last couple of years

Year-to-year variability is limited to 35 per cent of the first-year compensation. If a player earns $10M in Year 1, the contract cannot subsequently increase/decrease by more than $3.5M from year to year. Meanwhile, the lowest year’s compensation cannot be less than 50 per cent of the highest year’s compensation. If a player earns $10M in his highest year, he can never earn less than $5M any other year.

you're right.

Oilers signed omark to a two way, one year deal. 600k/100k

A trade is imminent! Why else would they sign him...

How does a 2 way signing indicate an imminent trade

just got confirmation from capgeek that this only applies for front loaded deals


Edit:
Also, think this was missed. Leighton signed a deal in the KHL
