I wonder how many of those contracts came from signing UFA’s. The vast majority I suspect as UFA season is just a killing field of franchise crippling deals. Crappy UFA deals that I can think of include
Lucic
Neal
Ericsson
Clarkson
Alzner
Okposo
Tyler Myers
Jack Johnson
Frans Nielsen
Kovalchuk
Tyler Bozak
Parise
Andrew Ladd
Shattenkirk
Van Riemsdyk
Kevin hayes (eventually)
That does not include buyouts which also seem to be predominantly UFA signings.
