Quoting: DirtyDangle
right no mrazek is a cap dump. maybe he does improve but until then it's hes a bad asset.
a players rights aren't really worth much, especially if they are going to arbitration. how do you think kase ended up as a free agent in the first place.
no one is going to help toronto out of their cap bind cheaply.
Kase ended up as a free agent because he played 3 games in about a calendar year while suffering through multiple concussions.
That's the type of scenario that leads to players QO being more then they are potentially worth.
Considering Kase is playing good hockey, is relatively healthy and is only making 1.25m, that's no longer the case, and him not getting qualified last year has no bearing or similarity to his situation this summer.
Teams let teams off the hook all the time if it benefits them. Tampa Bay was able to escape cap hell for 3 years with teams like Ottawa letting them off the hook.
Teams are desperate for goalies. Bad goalies get 2nd, 3rd, 4th chances constantly in this league. Mrazek throws together a decent run in the 2nd half, there will be a market for him.
Again, he's played 3 games.
