The missed opportunity cost is the worst part of this.

Yes you’re going to have slumps, but this is bad timing, because now is when you’d want to beat up on bad teams and build a bigger cushion in the standings.

Instead we’re dropping winnable games against scrub teams. Frustrating as hell.

Value is the result you get when you calculate salary and benefit from said salary.

Do we get more value out of Dougie at $9M or Luke and Kovacevic at less than $2M combined. The answer is the later because it helps you sign other people.

Our other 5 D costs less than $15M while Dougie costs $9M. What is more valuable?

Once again, we live in a salary cap world.
"Do we get more value out of Dougie at $9M or Luke and Kovacevic at less than $2M combined. The answer is the later because it helps you sign other people."

Good thing it isn't an either or. You could replace dougie's name with Jack Hughes, Nico Hischier, Timo Meier, Jesper Bratt, or any other player on the team and the same would be true.

Comparing RFA and ELC contracts to UFA signings is also pathetic. Luke cost us 4th overall to get.

If you expect any contract to compare to an ELC Luke Hughes, you're an idiot.

Having other bargains allows you to spend more on a fair value dougie. If you want to chase after rainbows tho go ahead.


Dougie is worth his 9 mill, especially as the cap goes to 93+ mill
