To frame him as some 5-6 D man is super disingenuous. You watch him walk and try to backfill with some rookie or crappy journeyman UFA like we always do who isn’t tough over what, $1mm raise per year? Anyway, whatever haha

Hahaha I am saying we don’t have almost 5M to spend on a bottom pairing dman that makes at least a couple dumb mistakes every game.
We have 2-3M at most for those
And Gud would be the one to sign, tougher cheaper and less mistake prone
