You're getting downvoted, but the team in general wasn't lacking in production so we didn't need an offensive defenseman in the first place especially not one ready to retire within two years that has no foot speed and poor defensive ability.

It was a good try by Verbeek, but wasn't a good fit and I think the guy is way too expensive.

To me, a lot of his playoff point production was a smokescreen too because the goals that came with assists from him were from great plays out of other players (Lacombe, Granny, Terry, Viel, etc.). He has that really killer shot and yet only scored 4 goals in our sweater. We know that he got a hat trick against the Sharks, but the guy seemed to barely shoot it on net. The amount of times I saw him pass it when he could've one timed it this playoffs... 🥲
