He played 22 minutes a night he was not your 7D.He was our 7th dman... and we ran arguably a bottom 10D in the league. How did he pull off 3.75m LOL

Which is scary considering it took to gm1 to scratch him. That’s on the staff , not the player. They thought he could figure it out. And they paid for it, because we went into the blender late in the year to find chemistryHe played 22 minutes a night he was not your 7D.
He wasn’t really overpaid though, he was very good for us for most of his contract, he just really fell off hard last year (and going back to round 2 vs Florida the year before). He was dealing with some personal stuff last year so hopefully he bounces back, but he looks cooked.There's nothing that hurts the general perception of a player more than being overpaid in Toronto.
Brodie wasn't great last season, true. But he wasn't totally spent either. Being overpaid in Toronto just lead the general opinion too far. He'll be fine for 2 years. I expected the AAV would start with a 2, but GMs overpay every year.

I am puzzled by this contract. He looked washed up in TOR this season.
He averaged over 21 minutes a night, 2nd in the team, and his highest in 6 years.He was our 7th dman... and we ran arguably a bottom 10D in the league. How did he pull off 3.75m LOL

That’s a lot of minutes Toronto needs to replace.
Hard to imagine how a 7th dman could do that.
You might want to spank that fact checker of yours.
So the 78 games he played don't indicate his role but 6 games he sat do? All of April he still played 20-21 minutes other than 2 games. Doesn't seem his role changed.because roles change over the course of the season...it's really not hard to imagine actually
when the games mattered most a coach who absolutely loved Brodie sat him in the press box
Gotta give the fans something!I'm kinda digging the Hawks strategy of overpaying these depth vets to come to their team to help their young guys out. They have the cap space, use it!
Also as a neutral fan, glad they got some skilled forwards (+ Hall hopefully being healthy) to put next to Bedard. They won't be a playoff team but they'll be fun to watch.
