Paying a backup or a 50/50 goalie $4.5M a year is ridiculous. Knowing he'll be injured at some point and likely miss 20 games, play in maybe 25 or 30 behind Kochetkov, $4.5M is also irresponsible and not smart.

You are right, but I think we are stuck with him for next year - who is going to trade for an oft injured goalie that makes 4.5

It is what it is. His contract is almost up. Could be a lot worse. Reference KK.

KK has been scratched in 3 games in 3 years with the Canes. Say what you will about him (he is overpaid for his performance), but I also blame RBA for some of that. He's not properly matched on his line and his opportunities are far and few between. But we've all seen what he's capable of when he's on the right line.

I will give that he is insanely young but the ROA is very low. 

Poisonous contract too.

      HOF Leaks.

      By Navy_football · Posted

      Pretty sure Brady left due to the lack of weapons in New England. There were some saying he left because of general disagreements with BB and the way he ran the team. But I think he realized that he couldn't be successful with the team of receivers around him - other than Gronk. BB wanted to give short contracts to everyone not named Edelman.

      Yeah I'm not sure he'd come back even for HC. Also not sure I want him.
