Yeah, three years retention is going to cost an arm and a leg. We would probably rather torpedo the deal and bid on Provorov ourselves to be honest.
As others have said, I don't like the "You can flip kerfoot for something valuable" line. He is still playing terribly, the only way we get positive value is with retention, and then we are left with one spot, and we already have 3-4 guys internally we may be looking to use those spots on this season, and a couple next season.
This cripples our ability to wheel and deal for three seasons, and were getting a 2nd and whatever we might be able to claw back for Kerfoot. Not worth the price of admission.
