The buyout is not that bad.

Team saves between 2-3.5 mil per year over the next 4 years (the duration of the contract) . Then there is a residual 1.5 or mil cap hit for the next 4 years after that (once the contract would be over). Just a bit after the Neal buyout comes off the books.

A really easy contract to buy out of if needed.
No more f***ing buyouts. Pay other teams to take the player, but please no more buyouts. They’ve been biting us in the ass since the Pouliot buyout in 2017.

I generally just troll on here but in regards to Tom Wilson, I would love him playing here but would question him taking a stupid suspension in the middle of the playoffs. If he did stupid stuff in the east, imagine how amped up he would be against Calgary?
Okay, he gets suspended and then we just have the same roster we did now.

You think Calgary is making the playoffs? :P

Moving 1 year of a 5 mill contract costs around a 1st. You think 4 firsts is worth 1.5 mill a year for 8 years?

Ken gets to wear the goathorns for Campbell either way, but he would honestly earn some respect from me if he had the stones to man up to his mistake and buy that contract out this summer.

It's not going to happen, though.

The problem here too is that there's no immediate replacement for him. All we can do is hope Campbell lives up to his end of the deal.

I’d rather do everything possible to salvage the asset first, then try to move it. I’d rather they pay + retain to move him than buy out the contract.

It seems like the Coyotes have been entirely unwilling to retain on Chychrun. Can’t imagine they’d retain on Schmaltz who makes more money and is signed for longer.

They also apparently dont want to take on other contracts. Armstrong seems like a bit of a dud.

Markstrom was a Vezina caliber goaltender last year and is the worst goalie in the league this year. It's safe to say that the real Markstrom lies somewhat in the middle.

Campbell is having a rough year. Rough years happen for goalies.

It's not even being remotely considered, because it is...... just outright stupid to judge that deal on a 31 game stretch of hockey.

Yeah I think he’s starting to piss other gms off by the sounds of it. Kind of getting the feeling he just doesn’t want to trade Chychrun, and set the price so high so no team will pay it.

It's true, goalies are voodoo. However, Markstrom also has a much, much better and longer track record than Campbell does.

Holland bet 5 years and the Cup window on a goalie who had played like 12 games in the NHL as a starter.
