- Tanev was getting long in the tooth and injury prone.
- I think Hanifin was a loss. But he wasn’t interested so what do you do?
So I don’t think the team’s performance dropped much if at all. The culture of the team improved and we opened up $18 million cap space with a bunch of new prospects. Win win in my mind.

2 wins in the first 10 games last year was the end of any thought of keeping that team together with them all wanting top dollar
