I would have said "spend the money on forwards". But if you really absolutely had to have another defenceman, take that 3.5 million and put it towards Del Zotto or Franson or hell, spend half that much on Patrick Wiercioch. All of whom are much better at hockey than Michael Stone is.
All teams have one or two of these overpayments, for sure. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't try to avoid them.

Del Zotto or Franson? Really? I don't get the love for Cody "turnovers" Franson.
