But it would signal to me that there is no rebuild. You don't sign a player like this in a rebuild, when you already have Weegar, who is better anyways filling that vet role.
I don't really think he is worth as much as most people, but I'd be fine with any return if there are some picks involved.

So it has nothing to do with whether they are rebuilding or not, it is just a move that you think indicates they are not rebuilding? Many rebuilding teams sign players when they are rebuilding. The Sharks signed Toffoli last year to a 4 year contract and he will never be there when they are competing.
