Shawn Horcoff, Jarome Iginla
Shawn Horcoff has averaged just barely over 50 points over the past three season and next year he has a contract kicking in that will pay him $5.5M annually for the next SIX seasons. Way to go Kevin Lowe….of course the Flames pay Dion Phaneuf more than that yet.
Does anyone else get the feeling that ever since K-Lo went to the Cup finals he’s just said “Fuck it” and decided to play russian roulette with his career?
IMHO Horcoff should be in the Daymond Langkow pay range of $4.5M per season or under.
Shawn Horcoff, Oilers
2008/09 – 78GP, 16G-34A-50PT, +5
2009/10 salary – $5,500,000
Jarome Iginla, Flames
2008/09 – 80GP, 35G-54A-89PT, -1
2009/10 salary – $7,000,000
Let me get this straight according to point totals Shawn Horcoff has accumulated just 53% of the points Jarome Iginla has collected over the past three seasons (281-151) but will getting paid a hair under 79% of what Calgary’s superstar will take in over the next four seasons.
*Cue the Price is Right music*
