@AndrewKnollNHL Sure, he’s under no obligation to do that. Had he done that though, I think it would fully indemnify him from criticism.
This really reflects poorly on Verbeek and his inability to properly read the marketplace. Him not understanding how high an OS could be.
@AndrewKnollNHL Did he give them the opportunity? If he said I have an offersheet at 18 I’m gonna take if you don’t go to 15, then I think that’s giving them the opportunity.
I’m not mad at him, but I also don’t think he gave them a real opportunity.
