The initial problem I could see is I don't think he is worth $4 million a year so overpaying for a bottom pairing defenseman is a bad idea.

Beyond that for next year we would have:

Gio- 6.75
Brodie- 4.65
Hamilton- 5.75
Wideman- 5.25
Russell- 4
Smid- 3.5
Engelland- 2.9

That is $33 million dollars in our defense which is way too much (when you consider how they have played this year its insanely too much).
