Yep, but only makes sense if they were already talking with someone about another piece and needed to clear some on top of whomever they planned on moving.
That or they just aren't planning on playing him and had to put him on waivers in order to move him to the taxi and if someone claims him, then they have that salary to spend
I really don't see the Caps doing much at trade deadline. What could they afford to do that would help them? Unless they plan on moving a big piece, but I don't see that happening until after season.
Hey Maybe they plan on trading Kuzy for Forsberg and saving 2mil a year to boot? (like Nashville would be interested)
alta:
It would've been nice if the Devils sent these two to a different division ...

Mickstix:
How the hell did they find the cap space? :huh: Whatever.. Fuck em'!! :uh-huh:
canadiancapman:
Lee is on LTIR, that's how they got cap room. We need to somehow get Bennett from Calgary. If the NYI get him as well, look out.
Mickstix:
Panik cleared waivers. Opens up a couple bucks if we choose to spend it..
