But that's just a random name, really, there are half a dozen guys you could sign for less and be in better shape. Hell, sign Bernier then. Would still cost you next to nothing. This is my point, you don't trade for liabilities, and at 4.5 million Mike Smith is a liability.

I think you are wrong about pretty much everything.
