Particularly when the GM could look at the upcoming UFA market and know, like the rest of us, that there was not likely to be much available. And the GM could also look at his low ranked prospect system and lowest rated scant collection of upcoming draft picks and know it would be very difficult to effectively replace the 11-13 mil player via trade.
Absolutely not scratching Robertson for Domi. Just as you think Berube hasn't put Domi in a place to succeed, he did the same with Robertson by saddling him with Domi after he did very well when finally given a legit shot in the top 6. Domi has played 2 games on L1 and has looked terrible in each. Domi has 6pts so far this year...he hasn't been good enough. He needs to sit.
I don't look at point totals often, but I had absolutely no idea that Domi only had 6 points. Handed the keys to the kingdom and he's tripped walking through the door.
