Perhaps the new strategy to get rid of these guys will be to trade them to the KHL ....

I can't see him walking away from 6mil

yup.. i wondered about that signing.. would have gone for shorter term.. there is always at least one GM tho

if you are Robidas

why would you agree to give up 6 million?
- Dozzer

For the chance to go play for another team. He got his training camp t-shirts, which let's be honest, is the only reason it took this long.

but why would he want to sit in an AHL pressbox when he cant just retire? Not like hes going to be playing pros hockey next year
