During Saturday afternoon&#8217;s matinee against the Arizona Coyotes, Sportsnet&#8217;s Mark Spector said Kassian&#8217;s new contract is likely in the range of four years with an AAV of $3.25-3.5-million.

Likely range on Kassian contract: four years, with an AAV of $3.25-$3.5 million.

If signed, the contract would lock up Kassian, 28, until he&#8217;s 32 years old and see him take up roughly four percent of the team&#8217;s cap moving forward. The money would be a decent raise for the forward from the current $1.95-million he&#8217;s paid.
Yesterday, Spector reported that Oilers GM Ken Holland and Kassian agent, Rick Curran, were finding common ground in contract discussions and Spector&#8217;s latest report seems to suggest a deal could be close to completion.
@Zack Kassian is on pace for career highs in every offensive category this season having posted 13 goals and 15 assists in 44 games this year. He’s playing a career-high of 16:15 per game this season and is shooting at 18.1 per cent — well above his career-high of 11.9.
