Is Pavel Buchnevich a low-end comp for Travis Konecny?

Kevin Kurz: (after Pavel Buchnevich’s six-year extension at an $8 million cap hit) Buchnevich and Travis Konecny have put up similar offensive numbers. Konecny is two years younger.

Believe that Konency’s extension will come in between $8.5-$9 million.
