p.s. For the record, I like Kulemin. I just think he's overpaid. And I think most (not all) players like him are similarly overpaid. In 20 years, we won't even remember those guys played in the league. And yet they have become multi millionaires, set for life, off the wages of people like you and me. How special are they really, to deserve that...

How about taking up a book on basic free market capitalism? The market decides the going rate. The market is supply and demand. If players of Kulemin's skillset is in a certain demand and there is a certain supply, then he will get what the market dictates for those factors. It's that easy.
