I just dont see the appeal to Gologoski - Hes a top 4 defender, he allready 30 - in the 3 years time it'll take to contend again we would have used the best years of his contract allready and would be left with, what a 34 / 35 year old.
My 2nd issue, is he's a top 4 - And honestly where do we fit him in - Already have Bogo / RR / Pysyk / Gorges / Franson - The first 3 are allready top 4 D and Gorges is pretty much a bottom 4 pairing anyway. I just dont think he'll bring anything we dont allready have.
Arrival as contenders will depend on year to year improvement, which will be best facilitated if we have a quality team supporting the core. If some of that support is toast by the time we arrive, that's fine as those players will have served their purpose.
In any case he's much different and better than Gorges and Franson. He'd be the best LHD on the team for years.
