That was a good read united.

I guess I'm using hindsight but I'd use the 2016/17 veto on the Lazar trade vs. the Brouwer signing, with the caveat that we don't buy Brouwer out.

Then we'd have Brouwer playing 4th line this year (ok not great), an extra million in cap space and the money is off the books at the end of the year. And we hopefully have a high quality prospect in the system.

Take away the Brouwer signing and I'd be worried how the money ended up being spent.
