You should probably start checking your facts or at least prefacing your statements with "I think" or "In my opinion" (and definitely not use IT-MUST-BE-TRUE-BECAUSE-IT-IS-ALL-CAPS).
I also think this is too much money for the bottom-pairing defenseman, but apparently a big, hard-hitting, right-shooting utility dman/forward that fights was on the Flames' wish list and this is what it took to get him.
Hats off to Engelland for cashing in on the UFA sweepstakes. As per all your non-comparable comparisons (Glencross, Brodie, <insert non big, hard-hitting, right-shooting utility dman here>), they are welcome to their own UFA sweepstakes when / if they ever get there.
