Although there are a number of recognizable, veteran NHL names still available for purchase this off-season, it’s unlikely any yet-to-be-finalized contracts will surpass the ones already signed, either for total bucks or term. Which means it’s time for Screen Shots’ annual list of the five worst contract signings of the year. (Please note: the incensed e-mailer line forms to the left.)
Dishonorable Mentions: Jose Theodore, Washington, (Two years, $9 million), Jeff Finger, Toronto (Four years, $14 million)
read on for the Top 5…

No flak from me… don’t know that I think those were the worst signings, but definitely bad ones.

Well, if the CaNuts sign Sundin for two years at $10M a year, you might have to revise that. The guy’s a great player, but $10M a year? I don’t think so.

sure I’ll catch flak for this, but the two worst signings were Dallas letting Hagman go and replacing him with Avery, and the Pens letting Ruutu go and replacing him with Cooke. And Roszival signing for $5 mil kinda irks me too.
