Again, this is false. I was a huge fan of Deryk Engelland and Robyn Regehr. I liked Dion. I loved what Travis Hamonic brought to the table in 2018-19, he was a true warrior on the back end who played tremendous defense. His other two years were not quite as good.
I loved Cory Sarich. I was a big fan of Kris Russell for a while. I liked Michael Stone when he first got here and I even enjoyed Dalton Prout.
Derek Forbort cost a decent pick and was substantially worse than any of these guys. I didn't like Anders Eriksson and he was free... Forbort was roughly as good and cost a fourth.

Yelesin is ready for more games probably too.

I agree about Yelesin. I think Lerby starts in the A for sure unless he really wows in camp but if he does well, we could see a couple call-ups. Yelesin could challenge to be the 7 on opening night.
