Description
Conclusion: NHL GM's don't know how to evaluate d men, there were SO many other bad contracts I could have put on here (plus a bunch of complete steals, I think that's more luck than anything)

Also don't give goalies lots of money, they're not that good

I had to do a bit of "projecting" for some of the forward contracts, I didn't feel like putting guys that made like 3x3 on here, even if they are terrible

Not enough term on Subban and I had Schneider, but I decided he was the 4th or 5th worst goalie contract (with Jones) and wanted to limit it to 3


ah fair enough, makes sense. they're bad but gone in 2 years

Schneider only has like 2 yrs left, and Bob was an elite goalie more recently than Price

A few are, but aren't quite worth their contracts and have a lot of term, but most aren't

Kevin Hayes has no business being on the list. Same goes for Voracek. The worst contract in Philadelphia for cap hit relative to their play is JVR, but it's still a decent contract.

Hayes is worth the deal rn, that was my I'll just toss him on bc everyone flipped out when it was signed (plus that's a lot of money for a long time for a guy who could end up being your 3C)
