Here goes nothing

It's not even about value, Detroit JUST signed Maata, we're not trading him before the deadline at the earliest, if at all.

you could probably do the same offer for Sandin, would you do that?

I'm inclined to accept this offer.

The 2nd + Bean being RFA gives us some flexibility for a player we aren't planning on keeping anyway. Our defense isn't supposed to be ready for another three or four years anyway so we can accept a tiny bit worse this year, we're still way better than last season.

Toronto would be in the same boat cap-wise if they took Bean at 2 x $2.33 though, wouldn't they?

yeah but at least Bean is under contract then, Sandin is still refusing to sign because he wants a better role
