Yes, unlike you when I said Carlson is the contract that the Caps could most easily replace.

I value the majority of opinions. I'd say 95% of them.

You have to admit that is a pretty big contract for a defenceman his age. I think we are stuck with it.

Exactly why he should NOT be protected in the upcoming draft. If he truly is this perennial Norris candidate, then Seatle will take that contract. Which will give the Caps the room needed to resign everyone else plus another top Dman.
Also why he never should have been given $10m

If he was left unprotected, Seattle would take him in a heartbeat but I don't think that is going to happen.
I realize he has a high salary, probably a bit too high but he is a valuable asset to this team. I don't think he could be easily replaced. To replace him with a similar player you would be paying a similar salary.
And replacing him might mean losing some team chemistry. He fits in well with this team. I wouldn't mess around with it.
I'm not a big Carlson fan but I think he is going to be here awhile.
