Which isn't trying to excuse away the Huberdeau contract. It's awful. Both because of term and dollars. But I appreciate the article also acknowledges no one saw such a dramatic drop in production. But it also isn't really impacting the Flames and any of their near-term objectives.
Whereas if the Oilers had more cap available perhaps they could actually address their goaltending.

I don't believe the model makes adjustments on cap situation (would that even be possible to plug into a model?), just a measure of value based on certain criteria.
Term is a big factor on these year over year as the more term you have left the more surplus/negative value you can project on a deal.
It's why Nurse is off the worst deals (not enough term to make top ten negative value) and McDavid is out of the top 10 best contracts (not enough term to have a top ten in surplus value)
