    Just trade our vets (that are duplication or have significant weaknesses that they've shown an inability to improve) and then we won't have to tank. We will just be a young team losing a lot of games while we're trying to improve.

    I dunno, ten years for a good three and d guy is a lot of tanking. He could be the missing piece for Scoot and Shae’s final championship run though!
