I mean, our coaching staff has trusted Letang and Dumoulin to average more time on the PK than Cole.
Also, once again, it’s silly to put up Ian Cole versus Letang, they are completely different players. And the fact that you said he’s the most erratic player to ever play D for the Penguins is also completely Silly. He was an integral part of three cup runs. One with one of the most notoriously demanding coaches in the league.
I’ll take a bet, Cole will not play out his contract if he signs for more than 3.5 mil with term. Or he’ll get like a two year contract at best this off season.
