Hot take. There are so many teams where that strategy has worked.

I mean we could have created space and wasted large dollars on JT Compher.

Except JT Compher would have been a long-term solution to the loss of Backlund and provided some depth to a position where we are woefully lacking.
The problem with the signings "The Wizard" - aka the man behind the curtain - made were they were a lot of money for guys that just never performed. He paid big dollars for guys that had one year of big production and didn't have a body of work to support the payment. Worse, the player was a crappy fit with the team and needs. There were some really good value contracts out there for players that would have meet the need and not come with term. Term was always where Treliving #### the bed.
