Toronto Maple Leafs: Michael Bunting Is NHL’s Best Value

Toronto Maple Leafs forward Michael Bunting has one of the best contracts in the NHL right now.

When the Toronto Maple Leafs signed Michael Bunting this off-season, people expected him to make the team, but nobody really expected him to have the impact that he’s having. If he played 10 minutes per night and only had seven assists in 25 games, that’d be okay for a player making $950K, but instead, he’s finding the scoresheet almost every night.

The seven assists and zero goals remark was clearly a dig at Nick Ritchie, who’s currently making $2.
