Why buyout Backes to save 333,333 in cap space? The roster spot? Just scratch him every night. Buy him out the following year when it’s just 1m cap hit for 2 years. If he is still there.

true but... we need roaster spots up here in the NHL. There is already 23 spots I filled in and don't need Backes doing nothing here. I know that buyout the following year is cheap but... don't want to hold onto him for so long. player development

Yea gotta agree Gofornut99. Don't buy out Backes this year. Even if you don't play him much, there are injuries, so others can be recalled to get playing time, so. many no ones development is slowed.

Just don’t re-sign Acciari. Problem solved. I mean i like him. But he’s just a 4th line grinder that you are scratching anyway.

Backes will be moveable after his bonus is paid out. I know fans only care about goals and assist, but the people who actually make decisions look at a lot more.
