Cap increases have also upped the 10 points per million.

From that, Huberdeau would be 1.5 - 2 million overpaid at most. He also seems like a great mentor to the younger guys (Pelletier is a notable example). To think that's the worst contract in the entire NHL and stand by it is admonishingly stupid.
Also anyone that doesn’t think Nurse’s contract is the worst in the NHL is also admonishingly stupid.
