Well at least he got paid. He should be sending thank you cards to Rob Blake bi-weekly.

Last year of this disaster contract. Seriously, it should be mentioned among the worst NHL deals of all-time.

one of Rob Blake’s biggest blunders

Agreed.

At least the Jeff Finger deal we can play with the theory they didn’t sign the guy they intended to.

This one went from hair scratcher to hair puller throughout its duration.

Making room for Swayman, clearly.

One of these is Cal Petersen when his new contract kicked in. The other is Joseph Woll.

It's was aterrible deal, but to compare it to Jeff Finger is a little unfair. Hindsight is 20/20 but Petersen at least displayed some promising numbers before he signed that deal.

Could the Sabres claim him for a day or two, then put him back on waivers? I for one would get a kick out of it.

Honestly? He makes a lot of sense there.

What could LA offer back though that Boston would be interested in?

Not sure why LA would have to give up players so Sway could go to Philly, but then again some Gms are pretty dumb.
