Absolute no brainer for Detroit to do after the expansion draft. I think Detroit wants to protect Hronek, Stecher and one of Lindstrom/Cholowski. I could see Svech getting picked by Seattle. If not though its a smart move and helps Detroit at the LD position. Yes he is overpaid but I don't see Svech being able to compete for a spot with some of the prospects we have in the pipeline. Detroit really doesn't have to give out any big extensions in the next few years so fitting in 5M for 3 years shouldn't be a problem.
