Well that's a whole other matter and I would agree it was poor decision making in hindsight if Brown is out the door for nothing soon. I thought it was at the time too and Brown doing decently last year didn't really change that opinion I had of that trade. Fine as stopgaps, but Brown and Zaitsev are not taking us anywhere of consequence.They should have more long-term planning here. They took on Zaitsev’s contract and banked on Brown redeeming himself this season. He did that and now he’s going To walk as a UFA and we’re stick with zaitsev’s contract (we also gave Toronto a 3rd for some reason).
Mostly, I just think Connor Brown is being overrated and propped up by okay stats from insane superstar like usage, and not someone I'm at all interested in locking up with term for 3.5-4.5 mil.
Would rather lose him for free or move him than anything 4x4 or more. 3 years is my max.
