Thinks we overpaid for both. Likens it to Chicago signing Seabrook. Interesting contrarian viewpoint.
Yzerman and Sakic were also superstar players in the NHL. I think that's because they take a player's mentality with them going into a GM role; whereas some GMs didn't have the same player path and think with a management/executive decision mindset.
