Let me down below folks, who do YOU think has the worst NHL contract today??
look at armclown, he has a few bad contracts including krug
>> see below ! Habs fan/partisan
The thing about Nurse being number one is that EVERYONE knew that was an awful contract right when he signed it.
He had Chrelli by the balls. He was their only top 4 D. What a terrible GM
@@bponcho414 Ken holland signed it lol.
@@HectiicEditz what, really?
Yes. Ken Holland, the most stupid GM in the league.😢😢😢
Yes the nurse contact is bad but let's not act like nurse hasn't played with a legitimate top four d man in years
Gallagher has bad contract but at least he brings a bit of value. Anderson has a much worse contract since he has negative value. Not sure about that ranking...
they both bring negative value based on their pay.
@steve8803 I'd take Gallagher 100 outta 10 times, you can atleast be garunteed incredible effort and good defense...Anderson well garunteed poor defense and effort when he decides he feels like it.
Johnny Gaudreau, so sad. RIP with your brother. My condolences to his bride, to the entire family and friends. For all account he was not only a great hockey player but also a very good person.
I think Anderson has been worse then Gallagher at least Gallagher is fun to watch with his personality
As a Flames fan, Huberdeau should of been #1 over Nurse. Nurse #2 though.
Ryan Graves is a horrible contract for Pittsburgh, he's literally getting 4.5 mil guaranteed next 4 years roughly to be a soft parking cone. Karlsson terrible as well. 9.9 mil the next 3 years to be the top (-) guy on the roster. Dubas doin work for Pittsburgh
Huberdeau is by far #1 because of so much term left..some of these other contracts only have 2-3 years left
One thing that COULD help PLD with the Caps is, apparently and from his own mouth, he prefers playing with Russian players. He likes the way they play and how they see the game. Looking back on his career you can see that he and Panarin had something cooking and maybe JUST MAYBE he can light it up with Ovi?
That's optimistic and I am a Caps fan. So I'm choosing to be optimistic, albeit cautiously so.
>> thats WHY they take a flyer (( no pun ! on him: Mr Backstroms out! LTIR maybe... i hope /predict Ovi at 24 goals...
I wonder is there is something you can do to take off Johnny Gaudreau from this list, out of respect. Maybe replace him with another player whose contract is really bad for their team? My suggestions would be Tom Wilson or Colton Parayko.
Where is the Laine video!?
Maybe now but not this time next season🔥🔥🔥
He's moving allow the man to breathe
@@Habsfan56744 yes, because mtl is a haven for players with mental health issues.
RIP Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau
4:51 I imagine this video was recorded before the Beniers extension, right?
7.14 mil to someone who scored 37 points last year is YIKES but at least he has potential
@@rudraksha11gaming66 he regressed under Hakstol last year, but he should bounce back, I hope
@@leifopstad2972 yeah it could end up being a good signing since he's only 21
Stephenson and Lindholm didn’t even play a game yet. It’s WAY too soon to judge their contract
It's almost like we have had years of these players in the league already and have a rough idea of what to expect going forward. Pretty much anyone worth their salt has said that the Lindholm/Zadorov and Stephenson/Montour signings are by far some of the more risky and pricey contracts signed this free agency by teams desperately trying to either stay or become competitive.
@@coltondavies02 People said Zach Hyman was an overpay, look at it now…We never know what can happen with a new team
@@etiennemore1704 not everyone gets better as they enter their 30s dude hyman is a different beast ALSO he is on the wings of mcdavid/drai so while he could be a 25-40 goal scorer without them he also gets stats padded being with them his defense tho is great
@@etiennemore1704 and also just looking a little deeper at least for stephenson shows that without stone on his wing his offensive effectiveness drops DRASTRICALLY
@@owenritzie1779 And Lindholm with Marchand and Pastrnak won’t be good? Stephenson will also probably play with Beniers
RIP Johnny
My biggest problem with Jones isn't even his contract at this point. It's the fact that he complained about being on a rebuilding team when he's the idiot who signed with the team. He thinks he should be the captain when the only options should be Bedard or Foligno. Also despite his stats last season there were multiple times where he refused to pass to Bedard, look at the Kane ot winner against the Hawks, it all happened because Jones wouldn't pass. His attitude is crap and I just want him gone.
10:15 Wtf?? Just after watching this I'm getting bombarded on my facebook feed that Johnny hockey has passed away. SO SAD 😢 RIP . Thoughts to his family in these difficult times.
Jones is just as bad as Nurse...
Absolutely
Jones is much worse than Nurse.
Interesting that 3 of the top 10 on this list, are former Jets. Maybe Chevy isn't so bad after all 😂
The bots are outta control.
Great Video, as usual, Nathan. I don't about Seth Jones & The Chicago Blackhawks Contract. I think that he did great, given the rebuild started the moment he got there.
Huberdeau is a great 6 million dollar player..LoL
And we all know why he got that payday in CGY
@@karlosspades7293 Why?
10:30 rip
I understand you're using context a lot in order to rank these, and in some way I appreciate that it's not the usual worst contract list, but at some some point I gotta admit that it become more about which teams are most affected by their contracts rather than the evaluation of each contracts compared to each other.
I have just got wind your videos in the past few weeks. Gotta say, I enjoy your work...well thought out analysis. As an objective hockey fan and a Leaf fan, I would concerned about William Nylander 11.5m X 8 year contract. Dman Tanev and his 4.5m X 6 years is one that may not age well. This summer more than any other years teams signed players to contracts that took them to mid to late 30s, The "wall" can hit very suddenly especially for Dmen when they lose skating ability. We'll see how some of these contracts look in the 2030.
Merzlikins just hasn't been the same since Kivi died. Jarmo signed him to that deal based on one season where Korpisalo was hurt, and i think the Jackets banked on the wrong goalie, even with hindsight being 20/20.
Your channel is like a cozy place where you can always find a portion of good mood and laughter. Continue to delight us with your funny and sparkling videos!🍊🍔🥏
Matty Beniers just got a 7 year deal
Oilers only option probably is to buy out nurses contract
That Binnington pick certainly didn't work out last summer, huh?
Three former Jets. Winnipeg is a great location to inflate your value.
As a Caps fan i watched maybe 30 of those 33 games that Kuemper played and he was just simply awful. He maybe has the worst rebound control that i have ever seen by an NHL goalie and he also gives way too many soft goals. I have no idea how he was able to get 13 wins last season😂
4y left on his contract with 5.25M cap hit so i think he will be on this list next summer because that contract will hurt Kings and imo he is not even a NHL backup level goalie. Maybe Kings can make a miracle happen and he will be solid but i would not bet on that😂
Montreal fans acting like Gallagher 6.5,Anderson 5.5,Dvorak 4.5m but in money paid out this year its 5.75m arnt bad need to wake up. And now Laine at 8.7m hope he returns to form.
Other bad contracts NealPionk at 6m
I agree Nurse,Gaudreau 9.7m,Huberdeau,PLD if he doesnt rebound,for his age Oshie at 5.75m.
I really like Trouba just not at that cap
Same with Jones/Werenski
As a habs fan i hate the contracts we gave to Gally Andy and Dvorak worst one being Dvorak imo since he plays like 30 max since we acquired him all 3 are waste of cap space but i doubt we’ll be able to move any lf them
I feel like holland sabotage the Oilers honestly who would ever sign a 2 mil contract player to over 9 mil thats crazy. Even a bum off the streets could be a better gm with that signing. Honestly worst contract in history if nurse was a forward it be different he may be a decent player but he forgets hes a defenseman hate the guys playing style just horrendous
Gallagher (short term, MTL rebuilding) and Krug (short term, STL can still build) are too high, Huberdeau (long term, gonna decline) / Gaudreau/ Copp (3rd line but only 3 years, DET could've tried to build otherwise) are too low
Important to contextualize the fact Nurse gets no powerplay time to bolster his mediocre defensive play unlike most expensive D men.
Nurse doesn’t play power play
Gallaghers contract shouldnt be that high, for an injury riddled forward, he played the whole season aside from a suspension, and scored 16 goals.
Even aaay from his on ice, hes THE veteran presence. Hes the heart and soul of the montreal canadians and such an amazing leader.
Vlasic not being here is crazy
How on earth is gallagher in the top 5 sure his not worth 6 a year but it dosent affect montreal at all especially with anderson also being paid that much who is far worse than
binnington is a top 10 goalie in the nhl .. he is a money goalie with a cup
Ronny Franchise's free agency record as Kraken GM hasn't exactly been the greatest to say the least.
Gotta add Joshanderson ! to the mix: overpaid for what he does! 2 years to go; $$ 11 millions aav }}} what ? to do...
We need Jim Benning to be back as a GM in the NHL
No hope for Mike Milbury unfortunately
just remember, no such thing as a bad contract on a bad team. a contract is only bad when the team is being held back because of it
Newsflash Grav, Seattle already signed Beniers, also Nurse as PP QB? 😂 What are you smoking
Nurse or Makar? It’s a wash basically
2 very different contracts despite how they look on the surface.
Nurse is at most a 4 million dollar player
For comparison, Hughes and Makar, two player Nurse is getting more money than lowest scoring seasons are 41 & 44 respectivly. This was during the Covid seasons A.K.A didn't even play a full season. Nurse best season is 43 points in a 82 game season.
Comparing UFA contracts and RFA contracts isn't really an apples to apples comparison.
Vlasic?
He fell just outside the top 10 on The Athletic this year as well because of the remaining term. Adding in the fact that the Sharks aren't concerned about cap right now, it's not as big of an issue either.
@@jonmendelson1104have to agree, it’s only 2 years left and at this point his cap hit is more a placeholder for the money your going to be giving Eklund.
It’s massive overpriced at for what he provides now but doesn’t hurt the sharks at all.
Josh Norris will probably end up on this list next year
Nurse is keeping the oilers from winning the cup.
Nurse was a big part of a defense that was top 10 in goals against last season in the league and was 2 goals away from winning the cup in game 7 of the Stanley cup final.
Was the retained salary what kept korpisalo off this list?
Maybe, but among Canadian NHL teams, I still consider the existing contracts of Elias Pettersson, Jonathan Huberdeau, Darnell Nurse, John Tavares and Mitch Marner to be huge overpays.
Still mind blowing that you had Binnington as a worst contract last year. Without him last year the Blues were a lottery team for sure.
Binner is worth every penny.
So overrated
Seeing these contracts, I think I'm good with kk
Problem with making constant regular videos is that people will inevitably disagree so here goes: this is a Bad list. Seth Jones is Top 5 maybe Top 3 worst. Seguin is easily Top 10 . Not sure why Gallagher is even Top 5 let alone Top 10. He is only 31 and has only 3 years left at $6.5. He was OK last year and could be better this year. There are plenty worse contracts
yup good call !!!!!!!!!!!
Didnt beniers sign for 7 years a few days ago?
Thank you for your hard work and talent. Your videos are always a delight.🍋🚕🧿
Huberdeau and Dubois are the worst contract in the entire nhl
And i'm happy habs didnt get them
( Gallagher is a bad contract but he deserve it )
How many times has Bettman allowed a Canadian team to win the cup since he took over? ZERO! How many times has he let two Canadian teams meet in the finals? ZERO! Case closed!
In 2 years..2026..
Zegras whenever a team signs him long term.
Stamkos who will be cooked in 2 years without that TB PP
Joel Edmundson lol 2 more years with a wonky back
Kotkaniemi will still be top10 worst (not sure why not here)
Josh Norris and his shoulder for another 4 years
Ivan Barbachev (never should have signed him) for 2 more years as a bottom 6
Sincerely not the best ranking, think you confused gallagher and huberdeau's spots
There’s no universe that Andrew Copp has a top 5 bad contract
I’m not sure which is worse- the contracts or the bots in your comments 🤖 🤖 🤖
Yeah, how'd that Bennington take turn out 😅.. aged poorly. The blues defense was the problem. Ol' krumbly bones krug😅😅 who, by the way, makes only 500k less.... it's astonishing how someone couldn't look at basic stats and deduce that's the worst contract. Then you go into advanced stats 😅😅😅 did ya even look?? The Binnington derangement syndrome runs strong for some...😢
Cadri fell on him intentionally, gtfover yourselves 😢
I want Trouba off my team in the worst way. I'm over his garbage. He IS garbage.
Askarov is a 🦈!!
Tavares ?
Only one year left
over rated guys 100 percent !!!
Shocked the Oilers did not buy out Nurse. Buying Nurse out would have given the Oilers a two year window and with the cap increase over the next 3 years would have minimized the buyout. Buying out Nurse the Oilers could have kept Ceci and Broberg and still have 4.5 M to upgrade with. Now unless Nurse is on LTIR at the trade deadline the Oilers will not even reach the final 4 in 2025. Here is hoping they buy Nurse out in 2025.
Nurse is not the type of player you buyout just because his contract his way too high he is still very usable
Nurse hasn't had a legitimate top four d man in years give him actual d man that will let nurse play his game instead of coverimg the warts of Ceci
nurse what a terrible contract , its impossible to keep the core when u give 15% of the paid to an overrated players as Nurse for sure they have to win now , or it will break in couple of years
100% Nurse, worth 3-4 million max easily the worst contract in league as of now..
trouba played on one leg for 2 months, 2 eastern conference appearance's in 3 yrs, the greasiest ranger on the team
