Sure in October Babs. But they have paid 75% of that salary already. I agree that in the off season they should dump his salary. |

I totally disagree. Biron only fetched a second rounder. I think SJ is stuck with his salary and if they wanted to move it, they shouldnt expect anything more than a 2nd round pick.
Ok fine, say they only get a second-rounder. I'm still happier with that than a 14-15 record in goal that's costing SJ $5 million a year. |

San Jose needed the Cup-winning experience and they got it in him, with the addition of Rivet, a veteran defenseman so I'm happy with what Wilson did. Add getting rid of Nabokov and this would have been a perfect trade deadline. I think that had Toskala not been injured, Nabokov would have been out the door.
Dont underestimate the advantage of having two capable goalies in the playoffs. |

I agree. There has to be more to this. Babs is going to love this one. |

Its the first rounder they acquired from New Jersey. This seems too cheap. Especially considering Tkachuk.
