He’s 31, unless he’s interested in a hometown discount deal, those funds are better spent on the OL. 
 

traded for him when they thought they had a shot at post season.. once the structure caught fire and burned to the ground a vet CB looking at UFA just isn’t a great match.

I'm guessing the plan was to trade a 6th round pick for a future 3rd round (comp) pick.

This was always a good trade for us. We had the cap, and we bet that we would get a better pick than what we traded for him. Thats 3D level chess what Fitt did. 

Lets all stop bitching. Think what you want about Rhule but Fitt is the next generation of GM's.

I don't think it would be dumb for us providing it's not a backbreaking deal.

But unless he just really wants to play for the hometown team, I do kinda think it'd be dumb for him.

Due to his time in the league, Gilmore can at best net us a 5th. Not picking up a FA that cancels out that 5th round wouldn't seem to difficult, but our FO is making some silly moves so far with signing Walker and Thomas so I wouldn't back on any guarantees.

I disagree.

Extending Donte would be even dumber.  And guys like Gilmore are usually able to transition to safety as they age out of corner and still have just as much of an impact.  It would be dumb to let him walk if he wants to be here.

      Jack Roslovic: Only 2 other UFA, right-handed centers age 28 or under had more points (39) than him- Sam Bennett (51) and Pius Suter (46). There were 4 other centers age 33 and older who scored more: Gireaux (37), Marchand (37), Tavares (34), Granlund (33).  Unless the Canes go old, if they let Jack walk, they won't get a center who scored more.  Thoughts?

      It's important to differentiate criticism and hate. I can't speak for that individual you quoted. But most people who have been critical of the Tepper's have been so because both of them have made it a point to put themselves front and center and in the middle of team operations and we have been largely horrific more often than not as a result. If people are making derogatory remarks about her that should be met with an appropriate response but if people are being defensive just because she's being criticized all I can say is people should get used to it. Both her and David would have been getting absolutely skewered by the media and the fans if this were a big market franchise. The Lakers are finally being sold off after years and years of public criticism of Jeannie Buss and even though I'm the furthest you could go from being a Lakers fan just about anyone you could meet who is familiar with the NBA would say the criticism was certainly valid.
