You're crazy.
Explain how eating a portion of his salary is required when you've had teams interested in him since last summer. Do you think Detroit will pass on him because of salary, especially since they have gobs of cap space and a glaring need for a top pairing dman? Don't know why we would be expected to subsidize his salary, if he doesn't fit your internal budget he's not for you. He would probably command his current salary if he were to hit the ufa market. Can't see a serious buyer asking us to eat some of his salary and they will better their offer. Sorry St Louis, if you're not prepared to pay the price (salary and assets) you can have Leopold, good luck with that.
