I’m guessing Hamonic, simply because he cost so much more to acquire. A fair number of fans never got over their expectations for a guy who cost a 1st and two 2nds, especially when the Islanders had the good fortune to get Dobson with the 1st.

I’ve noted a number of cognitive distortions that are frequent among sports fans. Sunk-cost fallacy is another example.
