Seattle and Vegas should have teams but they should have just been relocated out of those two sad organizations.

Why is there 2 teams in Florida? Come on!

Carolina is on the bubble for me as well but I hold them in a slightly higher regard.
Arizona didn't need this contract to reach the floor. Chayka is simply using an asset (cap space) he has used before to gain some assets and improve his team. I think any team that is near the bottom of the league and has space should be making moves like this. Especially on mostly insured contracts where it has little cash impact on you.
