Description
Eugene Melnyk's worst nightmare. The worst contracts in the NHL all on one team (I tried to pick guys who have more than one year left). Scratched and IR players are dishonorable mentions. Let me know if I forgot anyone.

As a Canucks fan, Loui gets too much hate for being overpaid

Jay Beagle's contract is way worse. Loui stil provides a decent amount of value (still overpaid)
Beagle's only value is winning faceoffs. Hes a complete liability everywhere else. He should be here over a guy like Sissons whos not even overpaid

And gardiner isnt as overpaid as Brady Skjei

Also Duchene has a lot of term, but is not overpaid at the moment.
Keller and Suter should be here as well

I agree with a lot of them. I feel some will bounce back however. i.e. Rask, Johansen.

Fleury however is not overpaid IMO

clearly you didn't see his PK numbers/performance..... still over paid, but definitely more impactful. this guy grinds every shift. other than points Beagles stat's are better across the board all playing bottom 6 minutes, eriksson had a lot of ice time with the top 6

That's why he's honorable mention. There honestly aren't a lot of goalies who are grossly overpaid. But Fleury is a $7 million backup now, even if he's still pretty good

It's more of the term for Sissons. 6 years left at a pretty decent cap hit for a career bottom 6 forward. It has AHL burial written all over it.

I mean, 2.8 million for a 3rd line defensive minded forwqard isnt bad at all. Its not like he will have the contract run into his late 30s

Maybe. I just hate the idea of giving bottom 6 forwards that much term. They're very replaceable and they can fall off fast
