Sorry, I can't give it to Dion.
His 6.5m cap hit takes away from his MVP value in no small way.
Best thing i would say is.
He is starting to play up to his and the leagues 8th highest D cap hit.
For me thats not MVP, nor praise worthy, if anything ,it's the least i demand from my Capitan and highest paid player.
Oh please give it up with his cap hit. He is not the only player in the league that may be overpaid and I say MAY. Calgary flames gave him that contract. What do you think he would get in free agency. There are at least 10 teams that would gladly pay him 6.5 million, again in free agency.
#1 dman who is scoring at a 50 point pace, plays 26-28 minutes a night against the top players on EVERY team . Hits, Fights and makes two AHL dmen have jobs in the NHL>
If every player was paid on what you or I think is their ability then there would be a whole lot of players making less.
I know you dont like phaneuf I just havent figured out why you are so negative toward him, . Yet you dont ever give him credit when he does something good, just bring a meaningless stat like cap hit.
