Miller just joined Wednesday and already posting a storm.Then why did he just re-sign and overpay a guy who’s been underperforming for the past year and a half?

Hyper-literalism accustation ... or really just an articulation of your reputation here?aha, so here is the source of the hyperliteralism accusation.
to recap: i say they are trying to "salvage value", and somebody corrects me and says "effectively they are doubling down". i come back and say, no it's not a double down, it's less than that, and i am accused of being too literal and pedantic?
i mean who is being too literal here? if roe meant to say chasing losses when he said double down, why did he answer my post at all? did he think i disputed they were chasing their losses when i said they were trying to salvage value?
he was obviously intending to imply i was understating the cost of re-signing gudbranson.
so i answered his point.
Once again, i'll let this quote speak for itself. Please, go on, let us know what "double down" actually means because obviously you have a much different interpretation than everyone else.that's not doubling down. they are not paying what they paid to acquire him. this time it is only money and cap space.
A guy who has played less than half the season both years he's been in vancouver to date? Who knows. Maybe Benning sees something we don't. Maybe him and Eagle are money together. Maybe Benning knows that free agency can kill a team (cough eriksson) and wanted to avoid those July 1st prices
Gudbranson not having a NTC means nothing. Nobody will want him and that contract anyways
Why is it the lineup or the quote?Are you high?
Old boys club always look after their own. That quote is essentially lip service to help out old Jimbo. Wouldn’t be surprised if that was someone looking to rip him off againAs pathetic as it sounds a Playoff Team's GM told LeBrun he'd gladly do that.
There's no doubt in my mind that with an analytics department and CBA nerd alongside me I could be better than half the ****ing morons in this league.

ya, don cherry suggested trading Marner for Gudbranson. Do you think Leafs will do it?As pathetic as it sounds a Playoff Team's GM told LeBrun he'd gladly do that.
