Rittich up for Lack

That's all bottom roster tinkering to make the team better.
I think the biggest take away is the GM will make room, it just takes time. There are roster limits and other factors that come into play. IMO the process is necessary as you are managing assets and reputation. IF Treliving was ruthless with the vets right off the bat it would have been noticed by agents and could very well come back to bite them during future FA. Right now no one can not say there were not given every opportunity.

Decisions are not always made in a vacuum.
