Ryan Callahan was so bad he made the list twice.

Flames were holding out hope that Brewer would get a sniff somewhere this season. All he got to sniff was the crack in his couch and the stale stench of the air at home. :puke:

Matt Martin at 12 doesn't make sense to me. He's a point producer and he got his price in an open free market. Sure it was a bump from his last contract but he has gotten me more fantasy points than Datysuk and is still cheaper than the Magic Man.

Surprised McNabb didn't make this list,  given his contract.  Although it was based on his production from last year and not a fa signing.  No caps made the list and you could of put all my oilers dmen in and would of been OK  30m for a bunch of scrubs.

Most bad contracts are a cautionary tale of Free Agency bidding. 
18. :PHO: LW/RW - Sergei Plotnikov, $4.9m (2015-2018) - earning Elite $$ for 4th line production
19. :PHO: D - Dougie Hamilton, $8.4m (2015-2020) - product of a FA bidding war

Then the other bloated contracts are bad decisions when it came time to contract extensions.
3. :OTT: D - Dennis Wideman, $6.3m (2015-2019) - getting Elite $$ for very poor production
28. :SJ: RW - Ryan Callahan, $7.7m (2015-2019) - overpriced

:EDM: D - TJ Brodie, $4.9m (2015-2018) - another case of All-Star $$ for reserve D output


In this scoring system, he gets the short end of the stick. 37 assists is not a reserve D output, but the fact the guy is scared to hit kills all his value.

I think Brodie shouldn't be on the list.
His output is lower because he was hurt to start the yr.

29. :VAN: RW - Martin St. Louis, $6.9m (2014-2018) - retired and yet still collected FNHL paycheck
Just got a 1yr retirement BO that cost the Nucks $8.2 million

31. :VAN: D - Niklas Kronwall, $5.7m (2014-2018) - missed time + low production = overpriced
Getting Amnesty BO after the FNHL Finals wrap up!

32. :VAN: D - Dan Hamhuis, $4.5m (2013-2016) - low output for hefty cap hit
Hitting the road after getting BO moments ago!

22. :CLG: LW - Evander Kane, $9.0m (2012-2017) - this 2012 Free Agent bidding war contract is winding down

This is shocking though I can see how a player such as Evander would have received a Free Agent offer of $9.0m annually back in 2012 when team could only dream of his sky high potential.

You don't even need a bidding war, anymore. Just look at G extensions. Kuemper at 6M was a pretty big ripoff. Lehtonen at 9.7M was just as bad.  :puke:

LOL actually, I would of paid an extra 4M if Kuemper was getting more than 1 start every month (and If I was Minny, I wouldn't give him that much of an opportunity)

A lot of the contracts seem normal compared to some of the contracts handed out this yr in FA. Whooah!

Vadim Shipachyov, $5.8m (2017-2021)

30 minutes of ice time and 1 goal...

:DET-NHL: Detroit stands by this signing and blames real life Vegas. They should have traded him. Maybe I would have actually stood a chance of making the playoffs...instead I'm just sitting in first place in my division...

I've gotta say you're having a great year. I'm a little surprised but probably shouldn't be.

When I looked at rosters across the league I figured yours to be in the middle of the pack, but I was wrong. Detroit and a few other team's are surprisingly very strong.  :toast:

BTW yes he is overpaid but meh, every team has at least one guy overpaid.

Yeah, glad I lost that bidding war. Guy is already back in Russia and signed with a team there. At least you get the KHL discount.

Tampa is a  :DL: mash :DL: unit again. 6 guys on IR, another guy red flagged & 3 others have been sent to the AHL to hone their skills.

The entire team is overpaid.

The best ability is availability & all money spent on nothing is total loss.

Vadim Shipachyov has 4 goals and 6 assists in 6 games this year... in the KHL...

I'll nominate for the top spot:

Josh Anderson, $10.3m (2019-2024)

1G 3A in 26 games and hurt. The hits save him here, but another case of a FA bidding went wild.

I think it's safe to say :SJ: Milan Lucic, $5.7m (2019-2023) gets to stay on this list.
