Career sample size is too small to compare current performance to.

On another note,
If Bill's could sign Watt for relatively reasonable and he performs again, relatively well, being:
~8 Sacks
~25 QB pressures
~4 forced turnovers
~ play 14 games or more
All the while being double teamed ...
With Star coming back to absorb additional double teams...it would be a huge help and enable others to make a ton of plays!

If i was the GM of the team, I would have had a 2nd rd pick an MAF at 3.5 mil salary.
And Hutton would not be here,

McCabe and Montour are back

I doubt Borgen plays now

- Stripes77

With them coming of the covid list, do they have to play, a morning skate is a little different then 1 practice, or does the NHL have a grace period for players and cap ramifications.

I wonder if you could still get MAF for somewhat cheap.

Like Hutton and a mid Pick for MAF and some salary retained.
They are paying goalies a combined 12 million currently

As Homie would say, It's been many more years than that!

Can't wait to see what other teams do to us before our defense gets back on their feet after covid outbreak
