Well, that makes him a net negative asset for this season.
My original thinking was the Wings were going to trade him at the deadline and then resign him for one year as an UFA. No assets sucks.Well, that makes him a net negative asset for this season.
How do you figure? He went on a hot streak and made a few games interesting, and from everything I see he's been a positive influence on all of the younger players. Now he'll go on LTIR and insurance will wind up paying his salary.Well, that makes him a net negative asset for this season.
Yeah signing a 34 year old coming off surgery is a great ideaWell that sucks. Glad to have him back next year, though.
If it's another cheap deal, I see no reason not to bring him back. He played pretty well for us and by all accounts was a good addition to our locker room.Yeah signing a 34 year old coming off surgery is a great idea
To look at it like its accountancy the idea was any impact he had on the odds of the Wings landing a top 2 pick would be negated (a 2nd rounder for him would be worth dropping lottery odds a few percent) by any assets he could return at the TDL. Without netting any assets at the TDL, his presence in the lineup only made a team that is laughably bad have slightly lower odds of getting a top pick.How do you figure?

This injury sucks, but Bobby was well worth the $1M salary. I wish him a speedy recovery.
I'd like that, but I wouldn't count on it. He's professional enough to know to say nice things about his present situation. He showed enough to be able to land a place on a better team, for probably longer term.Sounds like he intends to come back next year. Another 1 year deal would work.
If that's the approach then every player besides Nielsen and Djoos has negative value. God forbid we try to win any games.To look at it like its accountancy the idea was any impact he had on the odds of the Wings landing a top 2 pick would be negated (a 2nd rounder for him would be worth dropping lottery odds a few percent) by any assets he could return at the TDL.

Too bad.Upper Body Injury, might need surgery
No trade asset gained bummer
