Yeah this weird obsession about holding on to retention spots is weird. I suppose there could be a need for one at some point in the future, but if we have a use for it now why would we wait? Especially on one-year deals like TDA that we would get back next summer.The purpose of retention is to move the player out and save some cap room.
There's no purpose retaining retention slots that you're probably never going to use.
The most probably other retention would be Atkinson next summer, if he rebounds, with one year left at $5.25M.
TK, Laughton won't need retention, and they're not going to use it on Sanheim.
Maybe Walker at the TDL, but you'd get that slot and TDA's slot back in summer 2024.
And that's about it.
Ask the Kraken and Vegas about the value of retention slots. Instead, Kevin Hayes clogs up one of ours for 3 seasons with a 6th round pick as compensation.Yeah this weird obsession about holding on to retention spots is weird.

Not that much. He's a bargain at his current price, and we can always take a bad contract back at $2M or so, like we did in the Provorov trade..Konecny at 50% retained doesn't help his trade value?
or are we only selling off secondary pieces Torts doesnt like, and calling it a rebuild. - because it sure feels like that.
Rizzo then I'm guessingAnt says the prospect coming back for TDA is 'a totally Philly name'
too close

With ASF saying one of the hang ups was the prospect doesn't have a contract, that it is a center, i would assume it's likely:

It is absolutely horrifying that leaks include the names of (likely) 7th round college center prospects. If you can’t even keep that in house, you’re an open book for the league.

The retention was financially about equivalent to a buyout. So in that context it was either one or the other since both have caps on the number that can be used.Ask the Kraken and Vegas about the value of retention slots.
