Of course no one will claim him due to his ridiculous contract but .....

Pretty disgraceful how much dead cap there is on that team preventing them from doing anything meaningful.

Even with the dead cap space, they still have plenty left (remember, they signed Thomas only because they needed to get to the cap floor) to do something meaningful. They just aren't doing it.

they have more than enough cap space to do something nobody wants to play for them

wonder if they plan on working poulin in a large number of games thinking towards the future

wonder if i should dump neuvirth and give poulin a shot i think neuvirths chance at stealing a starting gig has come and gone and i have to drop him at the end of the season anyway

hahahahahaha

it would be pointless for them to buy him out they need the full cap hit in the immediate future i would think

yes they do. Even with DiPshitro in Bridgeport they are on the hook for 3.6 against the cap

and guess what, Poulin's cap hit is just short of 900k so from a cap perspective its a wash if they keep him in the AHL>

In two non-playing goalies no less. What was the point of the Thomas acquisition?

That's exactly my point. They are spending minimum money but are using trickery to end up spending even less.
