With the way the CDN$ is these days & the economy struggling as it is the owners may have been happy to save a bit of real coin.

Raymond & Wideman are solid reminders to Treliving of the pitfalls of chucking loads of salary at average UFAs.
Yeah, they save $1.05 million in real dollars. Plus, they save $1.15 million in cap hit for this season if he had been buried in the AHL again. The downside is the addition of $1.05 million in cap hit for 2017-18.
