Great value contracts not on your favourite team

[Ol' Jase]

As much as overpaid players get discussed on a regular basis, the players that have great contracts seem to get less attention.

With Makar, Kucherov and Draisaitl with arguably the best superstar deals in the league, there are more than a few great deals for a lot of players that bring a ton to their respective teams.

First ones that comes to mind for me is Miro Heiskanen ($8.45M AVV) and Kyle Connor ($7.14M AVV). Both deals are insanely good based on their contributions, IMO.

Who else has the kind of deal that you would love to have on your favourite team?

EDIT: Overlooked Q. Hughes, who likely has the best superstar contract in the league.

quickly off the top of my head in no order...

RNH

Slavin the last several years and next year

J. Hughes (though injury history is a slight concern with him)

Adam Pelech

McCabe at the 50% the Leafs got him at is a great contract

Svechnikov and Aho deals will probably look extremely favorable in the 2nd half

 

[Ol' Jase]

Slavin the last several years and next year

Slavin is a great example. His contract is an absolute steal.

 

[Three On Zero]

Upper tier cap hits : J. Hughes / Makar

Mid tier cap hits : D Toews / Slavin

Nuge is also a steal if he can keep his production levels near last year / this year

 

[AvroArrow]

RNH at 5.1M
Quinn Hughes at 7.8M
Jack Hughes at 8M
Morrissey at 6.2M

Jack Hughes is going to be an 8m cap hit until 2030

Matt Duchene at 3m and Joe Pavelski at 3.5m is pretty nasty

Zach Hyman 5.5m until 2028

Pretty sure of non ELC contracts Stephan Noesan has the most points per dollar

A guy hovering around 40 points per year who makes less than $1M AVV is ridiculous value.

Not quite, Drouin's is slightly better.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Gus Forsling @ 2.6M is silly

 

[Chainshot]

A couple on Vegas - Cotter at $775K and Stephenson at $2.75M (even if it is the final year of it).

 

[sbhnur]

Love to have Adrian Kempe at 5,5M.

 

[robertmac43]

Hyman!

 

[Cursed Lemon]

 

[Bounces R Way]

Konecny is a steal at 5.5.

Marchand's contract has been maybe the best value in the league for what he provides. Since he signed it in 2017 he's 2nd among LWs in production. Plays both special teams, draws penalties, pisses off opponents, and an emotional leader for his team. Been a bargain at $6.125.
