He had 38 points and was + 11 playing with Dahlin on one of the best D pairings in the NHL on a shitty team with little PP time. He just turned 24, has a cup ring and a WJC where he led the D men in ice time in the final game. I'd wait a bit before anointing him a bust. Only thing I worry about is his melon.

It is interesting that both Hughes and Byram's contract expire at the same time...

Take care...

$6.25 mill per year says all that needs to be said of Byram. He ain’t worth more than that.
