They might end up losing him on waivers if nothing else... Maybe they get rid of Nolan with his cap hit about the same as McDavid now . I figured they would let this guy walk since he can't even seem to score or generate offense at NHL level. For 2 years to get him this cheap, hard not to like the deal. I don't think he is a good player but gives some insurance if they ship Nolan, Clifford or if they suffer some injuries. He scored 8 goals the season prior so its not a bad value if he can get around 10 goals again.
