What we gave up for AA sucks, but a good experienced GM like Holland cuts his losses and moves forward. He was patient and now we have Kahun for a year for under a million plus 2 years of RFA so if he plays well we qualify him with a small raise.
A lesser GM (see Chia, Lowe, Tambellini, MacT) would have only thought about the cost given up for AA and done everything in their power to save face. If any four of those guys were in charge AA would have been qualified and we would not have the depth we have today.
Just my two cents.

I know there's rumours about Hoffman signing with one of the teams that will have some LTIR space once the season starts. I've wodnered if the Oilers don't get Hoffman, if AA is a bit of a backup plan. With the familiarity with AA and Holland. Honestly, I'd take him back at Kahuns salary, if it doesn't work out put him on waivers to the AHL and if he clears, he clears. Possibility of a condensed schedule makes depth super important.
