At 100 games played dmen are still developing. We'll see.</div></div>

You do realize that he played the #1LD role the entire season and ended with playing 25 min a game and had the highest DPS on the team including veterans like Seth Jones and Connor Murphy. They eye test proved it too. Went up against the hardest opponent's night in night out and he played well.

Let's rephrase this from the MTL perspective. How pissed off were you when Caufield got his contract? He had what...120 games under his belt vs 97. They're both 2019 draftees. Being a defensive Dman is effort based, where scoring can be hit or miss. $4.6M per when the cap is increasing the way it will be is amazing.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CFMan</b></div><div>Fair assessment only one that I disagree with is Megna. Dude was a waiver claim and expected to play murphys role in his stead. Going from 7th d/ahl tweener to the #4 is a lot to ask of someone and he did fine in that role. F is too harsh but C/D would be better imo.</div></div>

Understand your viewpoint. IMO its not entirely megnas fault bc he doesnt control his usage but hes just not an NHL player and pairing him with korchinski hurt KKs development this season so its hard for me to say he didnt have a negative impact most nights, even if he played fine for what he is.

Hindsight is 20/20 but I think it wouldve been beneficial long term for korchinski if davidson had gone out and paid a 4th for collin miller or troy stetcher if he thought murphy could miss significant time this year.

Dudes a stud. I'd sign him to 8 years. He's now teaching Louis Crevier how to be an NHLer. That's how much responsibility has been thrust on to him.

Make no mistake! He's not likely a big point getter, but there are serious discussions about him being Brent Seabrook. His passing. He intercepts/disrupts in transition. His ability to lock down TOP superstars already. His IQ on where to be is sharp. He needs work in the offensive zone when he has the puck on his stick, BUT even if he doesn't become an offensive dynamo...these Dmen are the glue of playoff teams. The guy that's a shutdown dman against the opponents top guy. I'd toss him out there against Matthews/McDacid today. Would he win every time today...no, not every time. I'm not ignorant to suggest every time, but he is their best dman right now. Seth Jones is hurt...so there's that caveat, but an absolute gamer.
