You weren't kidding. There needs to be a PTO sticky reminding people of the NHL vet minimum in preseason -- just keep it up there from August until the day after the first split-squad game in Edmonton.
Grossman was garbage but managed to get a contract because Treliving wanted to max out Smid's LTIR situation and Gulutzan agreed/was foolish enough to put him into the lineup. Guarantee that won't happen again.
And by the way, Korpikoski managed 20 points (8+12) in 60 games when he signed in Dallas last year. Not suggesting Glass is anything more than a facepuncher to travel to Edmonton to fill out the roster but there is room for PTO's, especially nowadays with the way the cap is working.
