From what some of the Edmonton media guys who do numbers have been saying, Nurse is having a good year. The offensive production is down a little from last season but his overall play has been good especially considering how much he is asked to play, how many situations he plays in and the level of competition he goes up against every night.
I really do not get the hate that some of the fan base seems to have for the guy. He literally has done everything the team asks from him and at time more than he should have too. He gives the team everything he's got every game. He's invested in the community. The guy wants to be an Oiler and wants very badly to do everything he can to help the team win. You can see how much it bothers him when they lose so you know he cares a lot. He's a great team guy. Yet some in the fan base absolutely crucifies him if god forbid he makes the odd mistake or has an off night once in a while. You'd think based on the level of bashing he takes, that every player in the NHL is perfect and never makes a mistake and he's the only one that does.
In my opinion, there seems to be a unfair fixation on him and the money he makes. If you look at how good of a dman he actually is and what he does for his team over his career, he has been unpaid his entire career to date yet every single time he signs a new contract, people destroy him for it and call it an overpay. When he signed his 2 yr, 5.6 mill per deal, people absolutely lost their minds when it was floated they could sign him long term for around 7. Now if you look at what dmen get paid, paying him 7 would be an absolute STEAL. Now with his next contract that kicks in, I fully agree that isn't a value contract anymore, it's a market value one. As soon as Hamilton signed for 9 and Jones signed for 9.5 and Werensky signed for over 9.5, all of whom signed before him, that totally flipped the market for Nurse upside down. So he's getting market value now. So in my opinion, people need too get over the contract number and just appreciate how good Nurse really is.
