You speak of blood letting. I'm not sure how much of the roster you can cast off because of bad deals. Every GM in the league looks at our motley crew and says, no thanks. Kassian and Kokinen deals were prime examples which Koski is off the books after this year. You have Barrie with a fresh new deal and he's just under performing in all ways. Duncan Keith with another year of 5.5 on the books. Cody Ceci.. our defence is wrought with just bad deals that either go too long or too high of a cap hit. So buy outs? Then you have dead cap space, so we have Lucic for 750k, and Neal for 3 years at 1.9 each year after this one and even Sekera for another 2 at 1.5.

Side thought.. Doesn't it make you sick we are paying for Neal and Lucic since they were traded for each other?

Back to my point.. there isn't much blood to drain from this crew. Or forwards are in a lot better shape save for Kassian, Shore, and Derek Ryan.

I think we have a few more years sitting on our hands.

Sorry - you misunderstood. I meant bloodletting as in Tippett, Holland, Bob Nicholson, and most importantly to me, Kevin "not in hockey operations" Lowe!

And no - I don't want any buyouts. Get creative and find someone to take your junk if you must. Other teams manage to get it done.

Sekera and Pouliot buyouts were stupid. Not getting the Hawks to at least take Neal for Keith was mind boggling.
