			God that was such a bad contract.  Only question is whether he chooses a low-value 'show me' deal with another team, or if he goes back to Russia.

That may not matter much.  IIRC, the Canes operate on an internal budget already.  They aren't likely to cap out.

			Why is Florida buying-out Brad Boyes? He only has one year left on his contract. 
 
$2.625 million for 17 goals and 37 points a season isn't bad.

The $2.333 mill cap hit annually that a Semin buyout comes with will be the largest annual cap hit in NHL buyout history.
