A cap floor signing! Another protector on the ice for the kids. I have no issues with this signing. Maybe a year too long? Money is an overpayment but so was a 3rd for Bollig!
Calgary's defense lacks a tough guy, Obrien would still be in the league if he played like this. I like the move. As for price? Don't really care. Over paid? Absolutely, yet we are not spending to the cap ceiling. I don't care about the owners saving a buck or two.
Got a lot of young guys making their debut this year on our team. We are protecting them and letting them develop right. Rebuild, another year or two away from contending for a playoff spot or more.
So proud of this team with how they protected monohan last year. Kid is a power forward but would get his butt kicked if not protected. Thought monohan played pretty soft the first part of the year. Towards the end of the season though he really stepped up the physical play.
I like this signing. Overpayment for sure! Yet its value is in what the kids do, not what engelland does.
