My real “issue” with this move is timing more than anything else. I actually have been surprised that he was not moved. However, with the olympic break six games away, if they were going to wave him or send him down to Bridgeport, based on our status with available defensemen and a five game losing streak, it might have been prudent to wait a few games. Yeah, you can debate what kind of “presence” he would have in the lineup overall based on his season, but it’s still a veteran, physical d-man who puts it all out there for his team. But, I am only a fan and surely not GM material nor even coaching material by any means. That’s why I’m Not paid the big bucks…..

I love the guy, but his skates should be blocks of ce-ment…

I think the extra year will keep him here…
