Why buy out Simek and Lindblom? If your plan isn’t to compete why not just play those guys and hope they play better and you can flip them at the deadline for assets. Or they don’t play well and their deals are done at the end of the year.

That is an option but they have so many other options at those positions and young guys that need nhl games.

In this case I'd prefer to just waive them and have them finish out their deal in the AHL without using the buyout or dealing with the (minor) cap hits for the following seasons. Same goes for Kunin. In fact, even more so for Kunin, but with him, Grier gave up a 3rd to acquire him so I wouldn't expect to see that at all just to save face.
