I'd challenge anyone to find a worst value contact in the league.

Weren't you railing against people for being negative just recently?
I think maybe there's a little hyperbole at work here. Nurse is certainly not a bargain at his price tag, and it means we're almost certainly stuck with him for the duration. However, he's far from the worst contract in the league. He has some great assets. He's a phenomenal skater, he puts up a significant number of points at even strength. He's tough, he hits, he battles. He kills penalties and he can fill in on the PP. Someone above mentions that he's not a quarterback on the powerplay - well, he doesn't need to be. He has done it before, but when you have Barrie and Bouchard on the team, then you don't need Nurse to take those minutes too. He does tend to log a lot of minutes anyhow, without the burden of powerplay.
I'm far from his biggest defender out there. I see the holes in his game. But I realize there's no perfect players, and you have a guy coming off an injury that we originally feared was going to keep him out of action to start the season, so maybe, just maybe we should wait a couple more weeks before sharpening the pitchforks.
