Intriguing proposal...but again, that's a guy who sucks and takes up a roster spot...

Of course he will get one but there are other comparables that are on two-way contracts.

He's scored 61 points in 155 gp (0.39 ppg) and a combined -26

His ppg is actually way better than I thought it would be

Performance bonuses will only be permissible for the following types of players: (1) players on entry-level contracts; (2) players signing one-year contracts after returning from long-term injuries (players with 400 or more games who spent 100 or more days on injured reserve in the last year of their most recent contract); and senior veteran players who sign a one-year contract after the age of 35.

I don't think he even warrants a one-way contract right now. Maybe they decide on a one-way, $1M. Very tradeable contract.

I gave this some thought too. Would you trade Lecavalier for Greening. Lecavalier a $4.5M cap hit but has a declining dollar value ($4.5M this year, $3M next year, and the year after). Higher change of him going on LTIR than Greening.

Chiasson, Greening for Lecavalier, 2nd. Do you do it?

I guess he's asking double his worth in the hopes he can get 1.5 million and call it a day.  Doubt the Sens go to 1.5 though, perhaps they settle at 1.25?

we just got rid of legwand. No way do I do this. As far as I'm concerned we can keep greening as an extra forward or keep waiving him and have him play part time in Bingo.
I'D still like to see what Chiasson can do
