I see his name in trade proposals which got me thinking..

If they dont deal him, do they even bother qualifying him? He has arb rights (which should mean little as far as going that route) and takes up over 1.5M in space. Would the team be better off just allowing him to go to UFA and taking what will be very important space with a likely lower cap overall.

This last season was a...well...not sure what that was. It was something this team simply cannot carry moving forward though. He was god awful. Detrimental at times. He will be 26 before whenever next season starts and regressed like something rarely seen in guys his age.

So let him walk or bring him back and hope he re-discovers what ever was missing?
