Nah they would have taken Holl then flipped him for assets

Holl would have got them some value as not many Dman can do what he does and cost less than 2mill

I mean stecher is probably available, hamonics a FA. Meyers could potentially be available bc NSH protected carrier and fabbro. TVR could also be available with carlson, schultz, and jensenbon the right side in washington. Im not saying its very common but its not like theres no one. Then you look at the talent difference between mccann and holl and its a no brainer for me.

Hamonic is not a top 4 guy anymore. Stretcher has defensive issues and has lower pk numbers. Also divisional rival so doubt they trade. Meyers won't be moved considering they just gave up Ellis for him. TVR is worse than Holl and a 7th dman. In general the majority of these Dman are worse than Holl rn. Also Hamonic will be more expensive and slower for us

In general
Holl makes 2mill
Gets 20 points while only making 2mill while most dman making more get less
And plays 20mins a night
Also is a natural RHD and those are very rare today

People full of "knowledge" evaluating D men by their Points, bringing those to the table as argument...I rest my case
