NHL: 25 Most Overrated Players in the NHL Part III

And now, the 1 most overrated players in the NHL...

10. Marian Hossa

Marian Hossa signed one of the biggest contracts in NHL history with the Chicago Blackhawks, earning $62.8 million over 12 years and causing an NHL investigation into the deal.  Hossa responded to that contract by scoring 51 and 57 points in the past two seasons, winning the Stanley Cup in the process but not exactly lighting the world on fire in the scoring category.  Hossa might be a dynamic power play contributor but he needs to start putting more pucks on net and start justifying that contract.

Oh, you gotta love controversy.
When the term "overrated" is thrown around, fans tend to mention it in describing a player they hate:  Sidney Crosby, Alexander Ovechkin, Steven Stamkos, etc.  Of course, all of those players are bona fide superstars who have the ability to take over games at a moment's notice.
But what about those players who are truly overrated?  I'm talking about those players who get lots of hype or lots of money and consistently underachieve or blow big games.
I have a feeling this one might set off a firestorm so, if you have any complaints, feel free to spout off in the comments section.  Most of them will be ignored of course but hey, you can try.
