Using up a roster spot? Every team carries two goalies - who else would this spot be used on but a 2nd goalie.....
Cap space? History has shown that players can be had for a pretty reasonable cap hit post-buyout as they're still getting paid by their previous team - they can make a hockey decision rather than a straight paycheque decision.
That being said, still not sure he's the right fit in Edm - I'll reserve judgment.

The point is that each team gets 23 roster spots and X amount of cap space. I would be happy to see the Oilers use some of theirs on Bryz because I don't think he gets them closer to being competitive.
That 2nd goalie spot could be used for a better goalie (as opposed to him), so as I said, I am all for it
