Absolutely - and let's face it - the kid has almost a 0 percent change of making it now. He was drafted because he had one skill in spades - hands. His skating was always a concern and then add to that ongoing conditioning issues - and here we are.

No sense paying the kid for another year, or using a roster spot on him. Best for all parties to move on.
