Exactly why we shouldn't be targeting a 23-year-old 1st pairing D unless they happen to be on the market at a bargain basement price for some reason.
We could afford to go for a 24-27 year old 2nd-pairing guy who has potential to improve. It's not as crippling assets-wise and probably suits the needs of the franchise a bit better. Some might say we already have a good young 1st-pairing D...
