Just a couple of quick ones here, but didn't Zuccarello just put up 79 pts in 70 games? Didn't Keller break out this year as a 23 year old?

Keller is playing on a horrible team, and you could replace Zuccarelo with Foligno

man poor zucarello, guys is on a 90 point pace year and is considered a cap dump. he has better ppg in the last 2 years than 90% of first line wingers and still get no respect.

Oh I'm sure we're all guilty on some level, but listing a forward who just came off of a 79pt/70 game season and a 35pt/40 game COVID shortened season before that at $6m AAV as a "worst" contract... lol

You can argue Zucc's contract could be viewed as a problem for the Wild since they could probably afford to keep Fiala who is younger and produced more points if they traded Zucc, but in no way shape or form is his contract bad.

oh yeah 100% . i remember whe thei signed zucc i was really wondering what the hell the wild was doing. but he developped such great chemistry with kaprizov its now a bargain contract. the wild future qould be so bright witouth the paraise and suter buyout. no one would even say anything about zucc contract.

Weird takes here

Jeff Skinner scored 33 goals. Maybe you want a little more out of your $9M man but he's still producing. Ryan Johansen fits in here too - 26 goals and 63 points, maybe not what you want out of $8M but still productive. Clayton Keller even more so with 28 goals and 63 points for his $7.15M on a baaaaad Arizona team.

Mats Zuccarello put up 79 points in 70 GP. I'd argue being above a PPG player at $6M might be a bargain. Even more egregious is putting Matt Duchene on here when he literally scored a career high 43 goals and 86 points this season - well worth his $8M I'd argue.

Here's some guys you missed: Jonathan Toews getting paid $10.5M to put up 12-25-37; Sean Monahan getting $6.375M for a 23 point season; Brendan Gallagher getting $6.5M for 7 goals and 24 points; Alex Radulov getting $6.25M for 4 goals and 22 points; Loui Eriksson getting $6M for 3 goals and 19 points in 73 GP; and for defense we can always talk about Tyler Myers getting paid $6M for bottom pair results (18 points in 82 GP), Jake Muzzin missing 35 games and only scoring 14 points in the 47 he made it to for $6.25M, and last but most certainly least, Danny DeKeyser getting $5M to score -zero- goals with 11 assists in 59 GP.

Nurse or Jones should be here before Gardiner. Gardiner only has one year left of 4 million. Those other two have ridiculously bad deals left.

Take off Zuccarello and Keller. JVR should be on here. At least Keller is still young and not likely to decline. Zuccarello had a good year.

Just run a 11-7 squad and have both Nurse and Jones on here too.

I'm just loving seeing two of the three FA's who left Columbus in 2019 on here. No, we're not sorry Columbus didn't sign them to those albatross deals. Not even with having to rebuild.

I agree with the comment there's some weird takes here. Are some of these guys overpaid? Sure, but I wouldn't call them worst in the league contracts.

i do think its funny how people say bob, duchene, and panarin leaving in FA is a dark mark on the jackets while in the same breath they say that bob is a bad contract and duchene was overpaid. Jackets fleeced the blackhawks on the panarin deal and knew the whole time he wasn't re-signing.
