No buyouts; either trade Hoffman with 50% retain or if that fails put him on waivers.
The problem is that teams generally don't use waivers as a way to get out of inconvenient contracts for serviceable players. The only way they waive Hoff is if we have 14 better forwards than him at the start of next season, which is highly unlikely.
Let's keep him for his last year. I just don't see the use for dead money right now.
Its more about the roster spot than the money for next season. Would you rather give 82 games of NHL development to Hoffman or to RHP/Ylonen/Heinemen/Farrell/etc.?
