I wouldnt sell Elvis just yet
His last 2 season have been below his standard
But what he lost in Defensive Depth wasnt replaced either
If im not mistaken it was Jones, Savard and Murray all gone at once
Thats like 3/4 top 4 D so there will be bumps till its replaced.
Provorov and Severson go a long way towards solidfing CBJ depth defensively as possibly better if not deffinitly better if Jiricek joins them full time.
Let him play under that Dcore and i think you'll be surprised.
We went through this with Price losing Gorges , Markov and Subban right after a ECF run and he struggled during Weber , Petry and Kulak's transition
Once he was settled though he had a SCF run worth remembering even if we fell short , but i digress.
Wait atleast a year before giving him away
