I like the gamesmanship too. 4 x $4m offers would be too predicableBecause he said priority is on forwards, I'd bet he did something like $4.5 on 3 forwards and 2.5 on a Dman.

Batch result days are honestly one of my favorite times of the season to see who drastically overpays for guys and also to see when a GM who bids peanuts on a decent vet and wins because they were the only bid. Of when Jiri tells us that player x was won by so and so just by a small amount.

We have limited cap but even if I can't participate in bidding it's still super fun to watch unfold.
