When are you guys gonna learn that Moore has negative value...

That's why they need to add a sweetener and most likely retain some salary. That signing was absurd by Sweeney in terms of dollars and term...but he can play in the right environment for a D starved team...
Since when is a US$2.75M signing
absurd? Really? And there's room for him under the current
real Boston cap and your
FAN-TASY squad above ^ ^ ^ ^
OK...
The benefit to BOS if he stays is as follows:
* JM is decent playoff depth if injuries/suspensions abound.
* When inserted in the lineup he's been just fine because the team and coaches play in a system.
* On expansion there's two things: a) he can be dangled with other bait to get the STARBUCKS to
NOT pick a desired player (his contract helps them get to the 'floor' and is not that bad), or b) if a D-man (eg: LD M. Grzelyck) is plucked then JM is NHL-proven especially if a replacement kid (Vaak-Zboril...) isn't ready., and
* He can always be waived/traded later if $$$ becomes a team-issue (highly doubtful given DS's use of the $$$ so far)...
EDIT/PS:
When he was signed a few years back now -
1) Chara was going to retire soon right - we all thought so, and
2) BOS had a lot of D-Man kids in Grz-Carlo-Mac (and Mac had issues staying healthy), so a vet was a good add...
You see the "Longview synopsis" is: Hell of a signing boys....
