I think Brodie had an excellent playoffs and was our best defenseman consistently.

It does come back to if we are rebuilding or retooling though. We currently have Giordano, Andersson, Hanifin, Kylington, Valimaki and Mackey expected to be in our top 6 next year. Out of those 5, 2 are rookies who will have learning growths, if they find themselves in the lineup.

We lose Hamonic, Gustafson (Do we consider re-signing him?), Forbort and Stone to free agency.
If we're entering a rebuild I don't think there's any way Brodie sticks around for that.

The fact that his aunt came out here and said "thanks for the last 10 years, CP" and logged out forever should be a pretty big clue about what's been said behind the scenes here.
