Shawn Horcoff has to be right up there. $5.5m per year for a guy who's a glorified 3rd liner, I'll never understand why the Oilers felt obligated to pay him and not Ryan Smith.
Ovechkin has been bad as well, but I think that has to do with his impending marriage. His play might pick up once the knot's tied and he's less distracted. Tyler Myers has the potential to rebound strongly as well.
In 2 years when Shane Doan's 38, his contract will look absolutely awful. Maybe the Coyotes are counting on him retiring by then.
