And what this regime has told us in the past, when something doesn’t work out for these guys, whether in a trade or July, 1, they rectify. They rectify it. So, let’s go down the list of guys they made a decision on quickly. Curtis Lazar, three year deal. July 1, they get rid of them after a year, gone. Daniel Sprong — nine games, gone.

“It’s just something a couple of people told me, that they’ve heard Desharnais’ name out there. Wouldn’t surprise me, because the history we just talked about with this regime.

there.”
