I guess I understand the temptation but I don't think Richards adds much this season, let alone in the long term. Treviling basically needs to unload the same contracts he has signed so far (except for Brodie and maybe Hiller), not so much for cap reasons as roster reasons and the need to make room for prospects who have earned a look on the big squad. It's a great problem to have. No holes to fill through trade for over-priced veterans whose best days are behind them.
