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.
The average AHL player makes about $40,000 annually, however, players in the AHL under a contract with an affiliated NHL team will make a much greater amount if they are under a one way contract or have stipulations which will guarantee a larger salary if they are sent to the AHL from the NHL.
