uk_redwing 495 Report post Posted July 5, 2012 The alternatives: http://capgeek.com/ufa_finder.php?position_id=D&stats_type=ICE_TIME That's a very weak defensive free agent pool right there. I think Holland will sign Kubina, as he tried to do previously. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Liquidsnake 12 Report post Posted July 5, 2012 hey that's fine guys, we didn't want to overpay Carle anyways. Lets see what he goes for. What we need to focus on is going after Yandle. But this gives more credence to the fact that Holland can't sit around and wait, other teams are not doing that, we need to make moves and make them now. 1 Dominator2005 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

St. Michael (the Red Wing) 422 Report post Posted July 5, 2012 Love how people are jumping on here saying it's a gross overpayment before even seeing the terms. What were you saying again? Most people aren't blind and know obviously it's overpayment. 5.5 million is overpayment. My guess would have been 5 When he's maybe worth 3-4 if that.
