Good point. Never thought to check the contract info.

That's what I got out of the move. Fratten went over 70 games last night, so he would hav eto clear waivers.

Good move for them. He didn't belong in the NHL yet really. That Buffalo team is a relative disaster, he got a taste, now he can go back to the Q and dominate. This also could be the start of Buffalo making some serious changes there...like I've said, I'd start by cutting off the head (Regier)...

Saw TJ at some pickup roller hockey tournament in NJ...he has some man boobs...doesn't exactly take things all that seriously...huge shot, huge liability on the ice...his brother is a total scumbucket on the rink too...

Can't hurt to take a chance on him, but Buffalo has better d-men coming down the line, they don't need him...

We're talking about over in the other thread...but here's another guy that could be cashing in during a Norris-winning season...I like Yandle, and OEL makes Yandle look like a big sack of dog vomit...

I don't know if he's going to get it in Pittsburgh...

With Malkin probably getting a slight raise, Crosby at 8.7, Neal, etc.

You can keep him if you ditch some/all other highly paid defensemen and replace them with depres, bortuzzo, engo, one of the other young cheap prospects.

I just don't see the concern, his deal ends when Orpik's and Niskanen's deal does...just don't bring one of them back: found the money!

This is horrible asset management though. How do you burn a year off his entry level deal for this? Oh well, Buffalo is a mess.
