Laughton wasn't particularly good when he signed that deal, but he was roughly a league average Forward. Howden is distinctly not that.
Looking at the stats I see 20 point bottom of the lineup player. Now that to me looks like a depth player at best and someone I wouldn't be paying the market value for. I mean league is full of tweeners who got payed and proceeded to suck. Look no further than Goodrow. But it's good to see Vegas being dumb for a change.

This is one of the nuttiest Skater contracts I've ever seen.

Well, if you expect him to continue shooting at a 22% clip. . .

He's a notch below Poehling and the same age.

He's not even a major contributor on their PK (1:17, 1:15 last year and this season).
He's not a shut down defender.
If you normalize his Sh%, he's on the same 1.1 pp/60 pace of the previous two seasons.

Yep. I'd have the GM pee into a cup.
