Right. So should they have NOT signed their captain right after he led them to a Stanley Cup win?

they missed the playoffs last year and had no cap space for arguably their best Dman at age 23. Chara at 38 is now a giant pylon. and will be for 3 more years.
Yes they did...and Hamilton was a part of that team as well...or is it all Z's fault?

What's so hard to understand?, was thinking of an Dman signing a big contract at 33, fortunately for Philly they didn't have to loose a young player because of him, or maybe you think without the "so-called long term concussion" he would be a Norris contender at age 40?
So a couple things here. Are you suggesting that Pronger isn't suffering concussion symptoms any longer with your "so called" qualifier?

And who suggested he would be a Norris contender? I would argue he would still be a very effective player had he been able to stay healthy, but in no way would he be the best in the game any longer.
