Player is good just overpaid. A team will sign him for 1-2mil for 2-3 years and be happy.

It's been awhile since there were this many teams with this much Cap space available. And it's not exactly a banner UFA year either. So if anybody is ever going to pick up Goodrow, now was a good time to give it a go for the Rangers. Whether a buyout follows or not.

Toronto for 1M for 1 year. Pencil him in on the 4th line, hope he's good enough for the 3rd.
Lines him up to hit the lottery a year from now.

Could absolutely see the Leafs claiming him and then trading Jarnkrok. Basically trading skill for grit on their third line

I can kind of see the rationale for waiving him. Goodrow can block a trade to half the league, so if a team like the Sharks wanted him, claiming him on waivers is likely the only way they could add him to the team. They would get blocked on a trade, and Goodrow would likely pick a more competitive team to join if he were to get bought out. I still don’t think it’s likely that he gets claimed, but I think I understand the purpose.

Imagine if Edmonton claimed him to get back into this series

yeah I'll explain the thinking here, $3.6Mx3 for a 4C when you have Edstrom, Rempe, Othmann, Berard, Sykora, all needing more minutes in the show.

He’s overpaid and they need the money to use elsewhere. If he was making a million a year it wouldn’t be an issue.
It’s not rocket science

Need the 3.6 to put towards players that aren't 4th liners.
Goodrow's shooting percentage going through the roof in the playoffs doesn't change his garbage regular season
That money will go towards a RW or Defenseman that will make a bigger impact than him

Isles sign him for 1M and sticks it to the Rangers
That reminds me of the time the Isles signed Panarin and sticks it to the Rangers
Oh wait that didn’t happen, I forgot no one wants to play in NYI
Goodrow isn’t signing for 1M with NYI when he can get that contract with almost any other team. Remember, the isles need to overpay with term and/or salary because they are not an ideal free agent destination.

Let's take a step back from who the player is or why the player may have performed so badly. You don't carry a 3.6 million cap hit on a player just because he steps up during playoffs while offering nothing during the regular season. Because that's what we're talking about here, an absolute negative during the regular season for 3.6 million. Sure, maybe we can say the 4th line was bad in general or that Goodrow wasn't fully healthy and is better than last years regular season showing, but in the end he was not nearly good last year to justify holding for playoffs. The biggest problem they have isn't finding a Goodrow replacement, but rather that Goodrow is the one stepping up instead of other players they devote more ice time and count on.

Brutal business...
He was awful in the regular season, but good in the playoffs, scored some huge clutch goals and was good on the PK. Given his track record though, you could argue he's someone who consistently elevates in the playoffs.
Still, a 4th liner making 3.6M is just bad value. No ill will, appreicate some of the goals he scored in the playoofs. Hopefully someone bails out the Rangers and takes him.

Stop with the “playoff performer” stuff. Guy literally shot 40%. He had 6 goals in his 81 previous playoff games. This is an obvious move by NY.

Could EDM/FLA technically claim him and put him in the lineup in the finals?
I know neither team would do it but it makes me curious if that's allowed.

No, anyone not on your lineup by 3pm deadline day can't play in the playoffs. Of course like your prospects and whatnot are a different story.
Buyouts can't happen until a certain date, or 48 hours after the final.
Maybe this is the Rangers telling him he sucks, so accept a trade somewhere?
