Overview

  • The 21-year-old center signed for eight years at $80 million ($10 million AAV), with the deal beginning in 2026-27 and running through 2033-34.
  • Cooley has eight goals and 12 points in 11 games this season, a surge widely cited as context for the timing of the agreement.
  • The contract makes him Utah’s highest-paid player when it takes effect, carrying a $10 million cap hit.
  • Reported mechanics include no signing-bonus money and a 16-team no-trade list starting in 2030-31, per PuckPedia.
  • The move fits Utah’s push to lock up its young core ahead of a CBA change that shortens future extensions, with Dylan Guenther, J. J. Peterka and Mikhail Sergachev already signed long term.
