Can he? I thought the buyout window closed.

I think the deadline is today. You can waive and buy out today.

Jason Dickinson is arb eligible, which would give them another window as well

He can be bought out in the second buyout window if they don’t make it.

Clubs whom have 1 or more arbitration filings may be permitted to perform a buyout outside of the regular window. This gives teams another opportunity to become cap compliant following an arbitration case.

Won't argue about Ullmark, he's the goalie I hope they sign.

But, Holtby will likely be really cheap. And Broussoit is kinda meh to me.

All in all, he's an option I wouldn't complain about.

Can't see it myself although it would be outstanding to have a Cup winning goalie to throw in there should Markstrom go down to injury. Is he ok with bench warming for league minimum as Darryl rides his starters hard? Is Markstrom okay with inviting a goalie with a similar starting mentality and not have it be awkward?

I wouldn't mind Jones as a backup. He needs to get his confidence back, he didn't suddenly go from a high end starter to garbage because he suddenly forgot how to play.

Yes it’s today.

For the 2021 off-season, the buyout period begins 48 hours after the Stanley Cup Final ends. It concludes on July 27 at 5 pm EST.
Doesn’t a player need to be waived a day in advance though?

I'm trying to find the post - maybe cap friendly? - that explains that you can do both (waive/buy out) today.

I wouldn't mind Holtby as a backup, but I see him going to a team where he still has a chance to be a starter in a bad situation (Buffalo?) or a contender as a backup. I don't see why he would want to sign with a middle pack team as a backup.

On the contrary, I am of the opinion that he got Space Jammed by some aliens after the Finals with Pittsburgh and that he will never be the same.. stay away, damaged goods.

He has posted the same 0.898 SP for three straight years now, and in one of those years SJ was a 100-point team that won two playoff rounds. I think there is a very good chance that this is what he is now.

I wonder if Jones ends up in Vancouver for cheap. He's from BC, and Ian Clark might be able to fix up his game...
