    Waiting to watch the meltdown in here if this is to make space for Watson instead of Kasper

    “No way he doesn’t get claimed”

    ^(Please?)

    This is a good move considering the sunk cost, but also unfortunate that it occurs only a year into the three year contract. There’s been too many longer term contracts that have turned out to be negative value.

    OUR PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED BOYS.

    How does his salary work if he’s in the AHL? Ain’t no one claiming this dude lol.

  11. wellpaidscientist

    WHY DID THEY EVER SIGN HIM? So odd.

    Oh happy days

  13. OctoWings13

    Absolutely needed to happen. Dude is just WAY too far down the depth chart

  15. oceanic8675

    This is correct. No bad feelings towards him, but it’s time.

  20. Aezetyr

    Well that is certainly a move. A welcomed move. Best wishes to Holl I do hope he can have some success where he is… San Jose? uuhhhhhh okay then.

  21. The_ManWithNoName

    Honest opinion but don’t guys think we need an upgrade on our pro scouting department? We have many way too many bad FA signings.

  22. No_Pineapple_4609

    They should just buy him out. Give the man his dignity so he can sign somewhere at league minimum.

  24. smilingasIsay

    I just don’t get why we signed him in the first place, or why we signed him for as long as we did or for how much. He wasn’t considered any good in the first place. He was the worst defenseman on a team with bad defensemen.

  25. Late_Brush4518

    Fiiiiiiinaaalyyyyy! Sooo cap dump or buyout next OS?

  26. HARCES

    It would be nice is he gets claimed by San Jose. That will make the Walman trade make sense.

  27. Big-Experience1818

    I really don’t understand how the Walman trade makes any sense at all

  30. Neifje6373

    Weird contract the moment it was signed. He was awful in Toronto

  31. daveathor

    This was always the most likely outcome when Kasper played so well. 13 forwards, 7 defencemen, 3 goalies.

  34. Flatrock

    The best thing he did for Detroit was cockblock Edvinsson from keeping #3 (boring) and forcing him to take #77 (much cooler)

  37. Responsible_Joke_971

    Someone else made the roster. Kasper?

  38. detroitttiorted

    Steve has never shown a hesitation to dump players. In a place where people trust him a lot I’m not sure why anyone is surprised

  41. rpb539

    The last 2 offseasons have been an absolute utter failure.

  42. Jeez-essFC

    Now if Husso keeps playing as well as he did in pre-season, maybe someone will take on that contract. Although, Lyon is far and away the most tradable.

  43. non_target_eh

    I would be VERY VERY surprised if he gets claimed.

  44. Shotokanguy

    Even if I don’t want him on the roster, it’s still an “oof” when you see it happen

  45. AndyJobandy

    Fuck me. My hat has only wahlmam and Holl on it.

  46. Imaginary_Ad5994

    Feel bad for him since he seems like a really good person and it’s not his fault they offered him too much. But also don’t feel bad since he’s making that money.

    Really doubt anyone will take him especially with two years. The only hope looking through capwages briefly might be San Jose (please be part of the Walman deal) and Chicago is low on right shots. But again highly doubt they’d want him

  47. SikkWithIt

    Buh-bye. Needed to happen. Especially with the young guns showing what they bring to the table in the preseason. Time is now!
