I get the need to free up cap space, but god damn this feels brutal
I knew that Kailer Yamamoto was likely on his way out. I'm bummed that we lost Kostin though.
- Losing Klim is tougher than losing Yammer. Unfortunately to stay competitive he needed to be able to play like a honey badger but because of his size he ended up getting hurt a lot doing this. With Klim it sucks that Detroit didn't qualify him so he's going to be a UFA which means his agent has most likely over priced him.
Sad to see the Klim reaper go. Apparently he wanted too much money though.
