Fans continuing to forget we don’t sign free agents. Letting Brock go for nothing is a very stupid move.
Yeah, this. Saying that we can let brock go and just throw a bunch of money at panarin or Duchene and expect it to work doesn't take into account the history of the islanders. We don't land the big fish. Or even the second biggest fish.
The brock of this year is absolutely worth keeping and the isles need to do everything they can to do so. Lee too. Eberle is the kind of guy who you hope can be replaced by a guy on an ELC, but if they're not willing to give ho sang a chance I'm not sure who steps in to that slot next year. The isles might be able to land a second rate guy like dzingel, but you need to be careful with going crazy when giving free agent rates to a guy like him coming off a career year.
