Description
Do we buy him out in a couple years when we need cap space or sooner? Do we retain half and try to trade him? Is he even seen as someone other teams would want to acquire? Then the problem of the NMC clause. His contract sucks and is cost prohibitive when we've got great options like Lundkvist and Schneider coming up in the next couple of years. I'd rather bite the bullet and get rid of him to keep the cap flexibility, so we can keep all the young guys with the cap staying flat.

Id move him sooner rather than later even though he has played pretty well, but you would probably have to retain at least $1 Million. The big problem is the odds of him waiving his NMC are zero to none so we r stuck with him until its gone

Honestly wouldn't mind if they did it. He's been okay, but you need to be great when making $8 mil. wish Fox would have that contract instead of Trouba, at least he'd be worth it.

That's why I feel like a buyout is what's gonna be needed, which sucks cause there'd be a few years of $4.3 mil of dead cap on the books, but I'd rather not have him.

Can’t waive a contract with a NMC
