After understanding the exponential function, our next target is the natural logarithm. Given how the natural log is described in math books, thereâs little ânaturalâ about it: itâs defined as the inverse of e^x, a strange enough exponent already.
Average NHL Salary. The average NHL player salary in the 2010-2011 season is $2.4 million. It is typical for a $4 million player to work alongside a teammate with a $700,000 salary.
Business Insider had a chart of the average salary for 17 different professional sports leagues, including the âBig 4â of North American Sports: NHL, NBA, NFL, and MLB. MLS is also listed. The NBA leads the way among all leagues, with an average player salary of $4.58 million. Cricket (the IPL in India) comes in 2nd, followed by MLB, then the EPL, with the NHL rounding out the top 5. The NFL has an average player salary of $2.11 million, roughly half of MLBâs average salary. The NFL does have larger total player expenditures than the NBA due to the larger roster sizes, as $3.6 billion was paid out in NFL salaries, compared to $2.1 billion in the NBA.
