Problem wasn't getting rid of him, but how it was done. Retain 300k this year, no cap next year, in some sort of trade. Tell his agent to find a club interested and trade him for an ECHL player on an expiring contract. Loan him to a team in Europe.
Or, let him live with the hard result of signing a 2-year deal and getting paid 900k to play hockey. You owe it to your team and fans to do right by the Oilers organization.
300k isn't going to make or break the team, but its once again a little bit more that adds up. Mostly, it is just concerning because it doesn't make a lick of sense, and this man is still calling the shots.
Its just bizarre to me that Nikitin and Fayne get buried, but Gryba is just too much. It is bizarre to me that you take a contract that expires next year, is completely able to be buried with no cap hit, and you put 300k on the cap for each of the next two years to save a couple dollars.
But maybe Keegan Lowe needs a position in Bakersfield now and having Gryba and Stanton there as vets already was too much. You couldn't not re-sign Keegan after all.
