At first I wasn't too sure about going out and buying a UFA being a bubble team but after reading all of the posts I like what this guy will add. There is a risk to lose him but then learning that Treliving has history with him to kind of makes me think the chances to re-sign him might be pretty good.
I haven't been as critical of Wideman as most and think there will be someone that will take a chance on him for a playoff run. That being said, if this move puts him in the pressbox I have to think the chances of him using his NMC went from slim to nil.
Good move, now get a right winger by next week and I'll be impressed, the goalies I can live with.
