My big question is A) what is the opportunity cost. You spend cap space, it means you have less left to spend on something else. And B) where is our biggest gap? He's a middle-six guy really, and there would be a bit of a log jam of real NHL players looking for a spot in the lineup. That's not a terrible situation to be in.
That said, where do we have the biggest need? I don't think it's another depth winger. Does signing him take away from our ability to add an extra goalie, or potentially another defenceman?
