In the NHL's 2024-25 season, several players have emerged as exceptional value for their performance relative to their salaries. Simon Holmstrom of the New York Islanders stands out with 45 points and a cap hit of just $850,000, resulting in a remarkable point value of $18,889. His offensive contributions were significant, especially during Mathew Barzal's absence. Meanwhile, Jackson LaCombe from the Anaheim Ducks also proved his worth, tallying 43 points for a value of $21,512, showcasing his ability on the blue line.

Veteran James van Riemsdyk of the Columbus Blue Jackets displayed strong production with 36 points despite limited ice time, while Darren Raddysh of the Tampa Bay Lightning reached new career highs with 37 points. Tanner Pearson of the Vegas Golden Knights and Eric Robinson from the Carolina Hurricanes also provided solid contributions on lower salaries, showing that savvy fantasy managers can find value in less heralded players.
