That contract isn't nearly as bad as people make it out to be. Most people would be okay with finding a player who can put up 1ppg for 7 mill a year.

 

Is he one dimensional? Absolutely. But he's still earning his wage and he isn't a super liability like people make him out to be. Can he be? Sure. But he also has games where he can be good defensively as well. He's the most inconsistent defensive player in the league and if we ever make the playoffs he's gonna shine. 

It's 8 mill a season not 7. It's 7 years.

 

Having 2-3 more seasons max of that production if we're lucky is not worth the remaining 4-5 years in his mid 30s at that number.

 

Even trading Horvat, we aren't getting a major piece back so we aren't even in contention for those potentially productive years, so it's just wasted cap space, same old theme.

OEL still sucks at hockey.  He's the defenceman version of Loui E r i k s s o n.  Stealing money from the franchise.

Nah, he's not that bad.  OEL still contributes more often than LE ever did.
