Points aren't everything. Richards is only a couple years removed from being a top-level two-way centreman, and a couple years younger. If Stajan can improve on his first 3 years of terrible (which he did), I don't see why Richards can't.
Concern about the cap is understandable, but don't see it as that buig of an issue with contracts like Hiller and Jones expiring the same time as Gaudreau and Monahan become RFAs, and Raymond (hopefully bought out or traded) Engelland, and Stajan (could be traded), the year after. It may not be the hinderance some think.
