I've heard lots saying he wasn't worth it at the time but now its a steal (same reason Mackinnon isn't here)

I've seen you on Instagram.

Giroux and Nylander here are a bit iffy. I'd argue they were signed at exactly what they were worth.

Giroux was signed to that $8,275M contract back in 2013 when the salary cap was much lower. The cap hit percentage was 12.87, which is almost $10,5M with today's cap.

Nylander was overpaid until last year, but those negotiations were a farce. That contract couldn't have been considered fair back when he signed, even if when compared to Matthews and especially Marner Nylander agreeing to a below $7M was a work of a saint.

fairly sure that McDavid isn't a cheap contract yet until he puts up more than 124 points in a season in my eyes

He was a 50 point player when he signed. $6,3M (or $7M this day) for a 50 point player can't exactly be called fair the day it's signed, but there's lots of potential of that contract developing into a huge steal.

Buddy, do you watch hockey? Mac only had 65 points last year when he was injured a lot and had 90 points the previous two seasons. With not being injured and if they played 82 games he woulda easily had 110-130 points

As the OP said in the description

Must be worth more than they signed for when they signed.

I'm just laboring the point. Before 2016 he was a 50 point player.

Personally I think MacKinnon is one of the best players in the league now, but that was not the reality in 2016.

Yeah but he is definitely worth more than his contract

Right now sure. He's worth $13-14M now. I'm questioning the moment he was signed.

Ah ok! Thats my bad I thought that was right now.

oh so you are doing players that signed team deal from the start, not players that signed deals that became great contracts

That Ovi extension RIGHT NOW is looking good. We will see in the future. I can’t believe he is second in points right now. Also he probably has the world’s fastest pass. He zips that thing

Oh fs, I love seeing him do his thing. Now Imagine when Backstrom gets back holy hell thats gonna be insane. I may have to give fastest pass to Mcdavid or Drai but tbh I don't look at pass speed so i'll pay attention to it next game lol

yes

The guy could easily be worth 16-18 mil (which is ALOT)
It's a steal contract for arguably the GOAT

currently he's worth slightly less than his contract. Around 11M. However later on I fully agree. He could be worth 16-18M

He passes like he shooting at his teammates with that speed, also it’s very effective

Bro what? dude put 105 in 56 with decent defensive stats. He's worth more than his contract easily.

thsnatcher Demko?
