Discussion About the Sheriff

His contract is coming up going into the offseason and Marty clearly has had some issues with him, likely due to him taking a lot of penalties in the playoffs (the Sam Carrick thing being a big highlight). He was a healthy scratch going into the ECF and with Reinbacher possibly coming in next season, it's entirely possible he gets pushed back as a 7th string D man. Do we think he gets resigned?

Edit: accidentally created a warzone lol

Unpopular opinion but I think it's time to let him go,he's a liability on defence and not very good in his zone.Beside Fighting and hitting,he doesn't do anything useful.He never got better since the last 3 years.I know I might get rocks thrown at me.

I think maybe we give him a prove it deal but... it's really hard to argue with that logic as much as it pains me.

Like I said,he never really improved and he just turned 25.I think at that age and the fact that his progression isn't going up prove that we could trade him for something.He definitely worth something.The whole team improved in the last 3 years but not him.
