Originally I wanted a small deal of a million for one year after the first week but now I think it’s a 2 year deal for like 3 million.
I think the most important question is....do they need him? Are the isles rebuilding, or are they wanting to be playoff competitive?
Is the guy blocking some young defenseman from being able to get minutes with the big club? You gotta answer that before even considering to re-sign him.

Hypothetically speaking, I mean.there isn't
TDA and Boqvist give Roy a more mobile back end that fits into his playstyle. The only one who’s close to that is Dobson but he was hesitant to skate the puck at all until the past 5 games or so. Plus Boqvist gives them an Anders Myrvold/Thomas Hickey element of a defender who can play forward as well.Isles have virtually no right side depth. Assume Dobson, Pulock and Mayfield are the 3 "starters" that leave Tony D and Boqvist. Roy seems to like both these guys. I could see Tony D coming back to Isles at $2mil for 1-2 years.
