A trade chip like Streit could bring back a Kings ransom.

I find it hard to believe that any team would take that contract.

The cap is going up to 71 million next year. Perhaps a few teams will have to meet the cap floor.

Yeah I have to agree. Streit isn't gong anywhere.
On the plus side last night was his first true stinker of a game. Most nights he's ok...

yeah for the other team considering what you will have to include to have someone take him . He has been up and down obviously and right now flat out terrible. hey look at the bright side, the cap goes to 71.1 next year and you know it will probably keep rising so that buyout in a few years may not hurt too much.

this team just has too many muckers and grinders for my liking. I want more speed and skill.

I thought Streit would be better than he has been. He's been decent some games, but he's got a lot of holes in his game.

The defense core is a terrible mix, too much redundancy. I would like Hextall to get the crack at trying to fix it.

I didn't like the length of the contract, or the cap hit, but I thought Streit would be able to improve the teams ability to move the puck, and boost the PP. Not so much.

He's been a colossal failure in every facet of the game.

Can't argue that. I suggested to play the younger kids (like last season b/c of injuries). Have to stop throwing money at problems and build.

I agree with your assessment but the fact remains he's being paid too much to be just okay. I'm sure you would agree.
