Stephenson traded to Vegas.


Guess that settles who's out.

A fifth round pick aint much, but it does cut $1.05m in salary which Caps desperately needed.

Better then losing him for nothing on the wire I suppose.

Yep, he was a casualty of the cap.  Vegas got him for a steal, but you right...at least we got something.

Just to repeat myself, I had high hopes for Stephenson.  He seemed to have the skills and the speed, but just never put it all together.  I thought he would be an aggressive, hard working guy. Unfortunately he never took the next step and maybe he just needs a hard-ass coach to get him going - too bad coaches can't "abuse" their players anymore!

I always liked Chandler myself.. Never really "produced" much but like you said he was a hard worker.  I mean, Haglin doesn't produce shit either.. Panik? We've got a lot of "hard workers" on the bottom lines. Need a little production from em' here and there.
