Because he knows deep down, he wasn't the answer. Zadorov isn't much better than a healthy Klingberg . Taney on the other hand would be great

I really am hoping it's for a real big fish.
I think he still needs probably more than one though and both being solid, stay at home types that like the bang and clear the front of the net.
@TMLeafsForever
Here is my optimistic take (full disclosure- I thought Zadorov was the wrong guy for our team), but maybe Tre is chasing a much bigger fish for our backend.
