What a surprise. The contract that smart people said was a bad contract ended up being bad.
Of course the people who argued in favour of it have retconned that from their memories.
Buyout incoming.

Very surprising after a great playoff I would've figured he'd have some value now, this must be a precursor to something

Really odd that he's getting waived right now in the middle of the cup finals. No one is going to claim him obviously, so what's really the purpose?
Oh they're delusional and hoping someone claims him.

Nobody picks him up and the Rangers have to add a sweetener or retain to trade him?

I mean, the first two years of that deal were reasonable value. He also had a good playoff this year. No one claims him, but someone will definitely sign him for cheap if the Rangers buy him out. Buyout costs the Rangers $1.11 million a year for 4 years. Someone will give him a one year deal for 1-1.5.

This is really strange timing though, I would have liked him on the sens, he is a good experienced veteran. Young teams need players like him. I didnt mind his cap hit that much. He is overpaid for sure but figured they could attach him to a small asset to get rid of the deal if they need the space that bad.

If this is a buyout move, I'd be all over signing Goodrow to a low cap hit for his playoff play alone.
I wonder if they could trade him at 50%. I'm sure there would be takers at that, if they had the appetite to retain on this particular deal.

Seems like San Jose should be all over this. They need some veteran help and its gunna be hard to attract people there right now.

I hope teams considering signing Joshua are taking notes.

Maybe this will put an end to NYR fans proposing other teams trade actual assets for him/his contract.

I'm shocked. Rangers fans said his contract could be traded no problem.
Only guess is that a team inquired about him with the Rangers and there's a claim waiting.
Don't they have to waive him again anyways if they are preparing to buy him out?

Goodrow was a playoff hero for us Sharks and we love and miss him dearly so he will certainly not pass waivers.
We appreciate our playoff heroes in San Jose and would never treat him the way the Rags have here after everything he did for them just a few weeks ago. This is so embarassing from the Rangers. Have some compassion, Drury.

While the buyout is better than the assets some are asking for to trade him, I still think it's manageable to retain some and trade him, rather than taking on 3 extra years on a buyout. Rangers save money against the cap next year with a buyout, as Goodrow has negative cap from a buyout. But the timing is weird, unless they think Florida is winning the cup tonight with the buyout opening 48 hours after.

Waiving him doesn't prevent a buyout
If someone claims him, it's a great move. If not, he gets bought out anyway.
Not sure I see the error here.

Can you please explain why you are shocked that Goodrow got waived? Did you think those Rangers Fans are secretly the GM for New York?
Is that why you were shocked when Goodrow was waived, because surely some random rangers fans must be telling the truth since they can look into the future right?
It’s so cringe when people generalize an entire fanbase because of something said by one or two people. If anything, we should be shocked that you were so gullible to listen to some random rangers fans.
