Dunno about Poolman, seems like a typical JB move to pay a player 120% of what they are worth..
Although Schenn is kinda lumbering and slow I don’t mind the addition, a veteran bigger body

Guy is basically writing a blank cheque at this point with all the multi million buyouts. Can't fault him for not spending the bucks.
Benning sure is showing up to play ball this off season. Some people crumble with their job on the line, or they go into destruction mode to make their replacement look worse.

I would've paid $1 mil more for David Savard. But then I haven't watch poolman enough to say otherwise.
We do need some grittier bigger dman to defend. Look at the habs with weber, edmondson etc...

Synergy is real, and sometimes you just can't replicate chemistry, even if on paper, another player is superior/better.
Poolman played 22-24minutes on WPG, so from the looks of it he has the stay at home D for the first or second pairing... hopefully he plays well with OEL or Hughes..

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I feel with the disparity in taxation laws from place to place AND the currency differences, the salary cap should only count a form of post-tax dollars against the cap.
Vancouver, for example, literally has to pay someone 40% more than Tampa Bay would if the player was looking strictly at his bottom line (and I couldn’t fault him if that was the case to be honest).
