the benefits of him perhaps eventually living up to his high draft pick. how much money are you realistically saving by bringing in some "dime a dozen" player? what are you planning to do with that colossal savings? is there no benefit of having guys who want to be here?

it has nothing to do with saving money. you still dont and never will get it.

a 1st rd pick 7 years ago. yeah eventually he will live up to it.

he wants to be here lol. he wants to be anywhere he can get a 2-year contract making the $ he is making.

a defenseman at 31-35 that plays a hard game and wants to be a flyer, at his cap hit, is better than signing some bigger name vet to a higher cap hit thats just passing through town. there's plenty of room for kids to play. what are we even complaining about?

i don't know if you've followed the news around the team at all in the last year but that's kind of become important, whether you think so or not is irrelevant.

when dumb danny boy came to him with that ext his eyes lit up. He signed it before the ink was dry. but hey he wants to be here and that trumps all.

when you overpay a player they sure as poop want to be "here".

yet you say two different things in the same breath. what you've said regarding RP is that he is a dime a dozen player you can replace for cheaper. if that's your stance, how is it not about money? hence why i said you're jettisoning him out for no justifiable reason. who are you replacing him with and why? you have never answered this because it doesn't move the needle in any discernible way both on paper or on the ice. so please explain why you can't have RP?

it's not his age. he's not holding anyone back. he's not overpaid. yet somehow this is a terrible signing.

i'm not even saying RP is some special player, but if he's replaceable, who are you replacing him with and why? you don't seem to have a good answer for this, though you continue to harp on the point.

Seeler turns 31 in a few weeks.

Thanks for the correction. No way I would have guessed he was close to 30.

That makes it even worse than I thought.

you're right. every player over 30 is deemed clinically dead

feel free to explain it to the folks at home, you seem pretty confident.

these are the responses you give when you have no answer.
