I don't think Cole is worth the money he is getting, and Montreal got lucky to get rid of that contract.
Cole was certainly worth every penny of that contrast last year.

Nieuwendyk probably knew he wasn't re-signing Ryder and likes what Cole adds to the team, along with having previous chemistry with Whitney.
