This is not a good take. He's a nice story but that's a whole lot of average for damn near double the league minimum.
Looks great playing on a team where David Kampf is paid 2.4 million to skate around and do nothing.

I don't think you're paying enough attention to the league economics. A 3rd line player makes about that much or more. These are his contemporaries in ice time:
Filip Chytil at age 25 has 14gp 4-5-9 for 4.437m x 4
Dmitri Voronkov at age 24 has 6gp 1-0-1 on his ELC
Anthony Mantha at age 30 has 13gp 4-3-7 for 3.5m x 1
Jack Roslovic at age 28 has 15gp 9-1-10 for 2.8m x 1
Matias Maccelli at age 24 has 16gp 3-5-8 for 3.425m x 3
Noel Acciari at age 33 has 18gp 2-3-5 for 2m x 3
Alexandre Texier at age 25 has 10gp 1-2-3 for 2.1m x 2
Joey Anderson at age 26 has 7gp 0-1-1 for .8m x 2
William Smith at age 19 has 13gp 2-1-3 on his ELC
William Cuylle at age 22 has 14gp 5-6-11 on his ELC
Isac Lundeström at age 25 has 13gp 2-1-3 for 1.5m x 1
Parker Kelly at age 25 has 17gp 0-1-1 for 0.825m x 2
Vladimir Tarasenko at age 33 has 14gp 2-2-4 for 4.75m x 2
Bobby McMann at age 28 has 17gp 4-1-5 for 1.35m x 2
Miles Wood at age 29 has 10gp 1-0-1 for 2.5m x 6
Zach Benson at age 19 has 10gp 2-1-3 on his ELC
Christian Dvorak at age 28 has 16gp 2-5-7 for 4.45m x 6
Ryan Poehling at age 26 has 13gp 0-6-6 for 1.9m x 2
Eeli Tolvanen at age 25 has 16gp 5-1-6 for 3.475m x 2
Ryan Donato at age 28 has 14gp 7-3-10 for 2m x 2
Ty Dellandrea at age 24 has 13gp 1-0-1 for 1.3m x 2
Connor Brown at age 31 has 16gp 3-1-4 for 1m x 1
Paul Cotter at age 25 has 19gp 7-5-12 for 0.775m x 3
Andrew Mangiapane at age 28 has 15gp 4-3-7 for 5.8m x 3
Trent Frederic at age 26 has 17gp 1-2-3 for 2.3m x 2
Taylor Raddysh at age 26 has 15gp 3-4-7 for 1m x 1
David Perron at age 36 has 5gp 0-0-0 for 4m x 2
You can be unimpressed - that's okay - but these other guys mostly make more and for longer term and are pretty much scoring at a similar pace. Some guys - like Mangiapane, Roslovic, Chytil or the surprising Cotter are outproducing him - but in terms of production, playing time and role - McMann is not overpaid.
