Within the model's margin
The cap hit falls inside the fair-value range below, so the model can't resolve which way this contract leans.
Partial recent sample — this score leans on prior seasons.
Fair-value range $840K – $1.6M
Pending unrestricted free agent (UFA) This is a rating, priced in dollars — what the model rates his on-ice value at. It is not a forecast of what he'll sign for. See the projected signing price on the Free-Agent board.
Availability adjustment −8% avg games played below league mean — see methodology.
+0.01 cap-years of surplus ≈ +$1.1M
Judged as-of — each season priced with only the model and data available then — Rodrigo Abols has delivered 0.01 cap-years more value than he's been paid across our data window. One cap-year = a full season's salary-cap ceiling.
Career still active — this total will keep moving.
Low-confidence total — thin or short seasons drive a large share of the swing, so read it with caution.

Why this verdict
Why this verdict
Where this contract sits vs. the market
Each dot is a real free-agent signing (2015-2026): 1082 comparable forward deals. The line is the going rate at each talent level, the market convention we price against. Real signings scatter around it; comparable players don’t all sign for the identical number.
The page’s headline verdict, +$239K/yr, refines this by adjusting the market rate for age, contract term. The plot compares to the raw market curve; the verdict adjusts it.
Structurally similar active deals
This contract sits in the Veteran depth region of the contract map. These are the active contracts whose shape is nearest to it, closest in spend, term, age, and role (not how they aged):
- Robby Fabbri $775K +$263K
- Bokondji Imama $775K +$379K
- Justin Kirkland $900K +$326K
- Adam Erne $775K +$354K
- Curtis Lazar $775K +$338K
- David Kampf $1.1M −$46K
Comparable by the shape of the deal, not by team or playing style. Archetypes are broad regions on a continuum; a deal near a boundary is genuinely in-between.
The range reflects pricing-model error, not measurement — fair value is a modeled estimate. The sample badge reflects games played, not dollar accuracy.
