Yup, looks like I won't be keeping him on my salary roster next season, LOL. If you own him in a salary league that uses Blocks, then you're crying right now. If you're a PIT fan, you're on the floor pissing your pants laughing.

My league is exactly the same with using actual annual salary instead of cap hit. Unless his deal is back loaded with a low 1st yr rate of $3.0 mil, I don't think I can afford to keep him anymore.
Dear Andrew, you've been a good friend to me for the last couple years. I will miss you a lot old friend, Good-Bye!

Defensemen are expensive...... yeesh. McDonald gets 5 (!), Phaneuf gets 7 (!!), does Subban get 12!?!?!?! This is getting out of hand. I hope Subban's agent doesn't read this.. But he's likely asking for 20 anyway....

Keep writing about this... the bargains get paid eventually and sometimes it's not pretty. Time to find a new cheap wagon to ride for a few years...

Overpaying mediocre defensemen is the new chasing goalies out of town in Philadelphia. Woof, they are going to regret that deal immediately.
I know...I've been complaining about this all over the forums of late. I simply can't afford most dmen in my salary cap league any longer. Used to be you could grab a few decent offensive dmen for under $2 million. Now, I'm hoping not to spend more than $4 million, and even those are hard to find.
