D.J Smith just said his 20 hardest working players will be in the lineup. Seems like his days in Ottawa are numbered.

Not likely, unless Ottawa is willing to eat a bad contract. Him being scratched by Ottawa means that he likely isn't earning playing time anywhere else and nobody is biting that contract

In the games he cares he does not too bad. If he could go to a decent team he could likely be a 15 goal scorer, which is a far cry from his contract, or how promising he use to be.

Melnyk buying out that contract after this year when there are 2 years left?

This seems to be happening a lot more with several teams.

Loui Eriksson has also been scratched for the Canucks ever since the first game of the season. That's the one game he played this year.

I say good riddance.

Isn't there an episode of Seinfeld where George Costanza tries to get himself fired?

I kind of feel like this is the same situation. Bobby Ryan wants to relax in Idaho but can't retire unless he is bought out, because otherwise he has to leave 21 million on the table.
