That is setting a really high standard.
He was a top-6 forward in a team that played 25 playoff games... and came back against Crosby/Malkin and the Penguins being down 3-1 with Richards scoring the winning goal in a 2-1 road game 7.
If you are basing the buyout on his ho-hum playoff performance then Crosby should have been bought out as well.
