BlursIs it because Nashville has too many contracts?
Ya, can someone more familiar with Nashville situation explain this?
infinitevalenceCan’t rebuild with a slow and old center keeping the younger kids of the ice. He was a big piece of our Stanley cup run so for that I am grateful.
Ah, just a dump to make room for the new guys 👍👍
Yup... And way overpaid for what he is at this point.
I checked up on the thread on Reddit because I was curious. Apparently he’s part of the log jam keeping the youth who looked good on the team this year from making the squad.
He was a slow, heavy skater who just had his Achilles sliced, so it’s likely he’ll lose a step there too.
This is looking like a contract dump.
