I think the only issue is the contracts, same with Nurse. People hate on Nurse a lot but if heβs making 4-6 mil all of a sudden every team wants them. I do think theyβre overpaid, but thatβs not their fault either. Thatβs management that signed them and their agents. Same issue we had in Vancouver with the Luongo contract. No one wanted him because of his contract but one of the best goalies in the league. But considering Quinn Hughes has been making 7.85 mil since 2021-2027, kind of makes those other contracts mentioned look atrocious

It's kind of funny that the year Nurse was paid, Seth Jones just got his contract…their stats that year were comparable.
