That type of return for a goalie is nuts, especially a goalie who is 34 who has been injured a few times this year.
If everything is decided, NTC waived etc, and the only hold up would be the extra year of retention I would hope the management team is banging down ownerships door.
Holtz or Mercer shouldn't really matter. You are getting a big piece back.
