No, Doug Armstrong is a really good GM.Danault and Hyman both got a million more than Saad and additional year(s). Did Saad wait too long to agree on the term and money?

Saad, but they are completely different types of players. Hoffman will produce more, but Saad is a more complete player.Both at $4.5M, whom would you take between Saad and Hoffman ?
Saad but true.How does Saad end up with less term and AAV than Coleman?
If you are Montreal you prefer Hoffman. As you said, different types of players. Montreal PP needs to get better.Saad, but they are completely different types of players. Hoffman will produce more, but Saad is a more complete player.
So he knew nobody was going to sign sadd yesterday. He is good.Armstrong proves again why he is one of the best GMs in the league. Didn't panic yesterday during the market frenzy and paid Saad exactly what the Blues were able to fit in to their cap without necessitating any additional moves. Saad is coming off a 6 year 36M contract at an AAV of 6M. 6.5M in actual salary last year. How many players took a 2M hit in base salary for next season during yesterday's mania? Probably not many.
Armstrong has balls of steel. He's not always right. But his shrewdness had paid off for the Blues big time.
Never claimed he had a crystal ball. Just ones made of steelSo he knew nobody was going to sign sadd yesterday. He is good.
Is he really top 6 though? Seems like more of an awesome 3rd line winger. I'll be thrilled if he puts up better line 2 production.
Want me to really blow your mind? Saad played on that North America young guns team with Mcdavid/Matthews/Mackinnon lol.Kinda shocks me that he's only 28.
