There really are no polarizing players currently because basically everyone makes under $5m.
The two guys who don't are Okposo (impossible to hate) and Skinner (has more than 30 goals).
The goalie is 40 and makes 750k so you can't be mad at that guy - Hank Balling
Okposo has gotten A LOT of “hate” on here
Maybe not lately, bc ppl have finally woken up to him being a decent player
But still…. there was a couple years when plenty of ppl here wanted him sent down to Rochester
Even some ppl that would talk about adding draft picks to get a team to take him in a trade

his production dropped 30 percent for the last 3 years, before this year
He was also playing in an extremely heavy defensive role
So a drop in offensive production was reasonable
Even though he wasn’t scoring, he was still playing well in his role - jdfitz77
There were definitely extended times where he wasn't. Was an obvious issue when they were up against the cap with multiple years remaining. It's not now.

playing at a 30 point per 82 game season is never a good thing in a cap era with that contract

Disagree
Since he was put in that defensive role, he’s mostly played it well
Yes, his offensive numbers dipped
Yes, he’s been overpaid
But he’s also played well in his defensive role
