You try to trade him first. But like others are saying, he is "only" overpaid by about 2mil per year. He is a really solid RHD that would be on the #1 pairing for most teams. His offense numbers are down because of Fox/DeAngelo/Jones taking most the PP time, with Lundkvist probably doing it again this year. Unfortunately they couldn't predict Fox to be this amazing when they signed Trouba. But he's still good and physical in the D zone and on the penalty kill.
His first year was definitely "bad", but he was "good" last year. I expect more of the same. Just don't expect the offense to go up like it was in WPG. At 8mil he was definitely signed for that 50point year. But, enter Fox
