Hell of a lot cheaper and younger than Chiarot plus signed for another season. However this is an overpayment

Is Graves good? I honestly don't know much about him outside of his time on the Avs. I didn't realize he is 6'5". Is he physical though? I seem to recall someone who is similar in height but might be the least aggressive player in hockey. Bottom line is we need to find a cost effective top4 LHD that wouldn't be a liability come playoffs. I don't think Scandella, Mikkola or Walman fit that bill and thats a lot of pressure to throw on a rookie in perunovich. Should be a spicy couple of weeks before TDL

Graves would be a great fit. Would certainly rather over pay for him than everyone else who's been rumored.
