A few thoughts come to mind (and yes I am pulling these numbers out of thin air):

- We just moved a 80% chance of a solid NHLer for 2 x 20% chances... Math calls this a fail.

- There should be more incentive (or disincentive) for a player to pull a d-bag move like this. IE, if he chooses not to sign a max-contract he should be sitting out of the draft for 2 years.

- All that said, the one positive I see is that this will give us a chance to get some skill up front and re-stock the cupboards that ###### emptied.
