Second, Dion's contract isnt a boat anchor. Term is three more years vs two for brouwer...so not really boatload. And he's probably worth $4.5-5.5m per year, so is overpaid by ~$2m for 3 years. Meanwhile, Brouwer is overpaid by $3m per year for the next 2 years. So its pretty subjective as to which one of the two is more overpaid.

You realize Dion would be the highest paid player on the team and would be our 5th no maybe 6th best Dman? Far from over the top of you ask me.
