I suppose, but even he should have his limits especially considering how badly he has been burnt throwing money around already. Besides, their prospect pool is deeper than ours, they have more picks in the upcoming draft and they will also face challenges re-signing young players if Richards is thrown into the mix, so they should have even less incentive than CGY. Point remains, there is an extremely small market for Richards, if LA is hoping CGY and BUF will get in a bidding war to drive the price of a poison pill down to a 2nd, I think he's underestimating his predicament.
