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.
