So.....can we just give Greening another 20k....then buy him out?
I mean crap, would the NHL really have such a big quibble over a contract difference that's 15k lower than the buyout window?
*Greening walks into Murrays office
Murray: Hey Greening, thanks for coming in today
Greening: Anytime, why did you want to see me?
Murray: Well i have some good news for you
Greening: What is the good news?
Murray: Being that you are such a good sport lately even though you have mostly been a healthy scratch, I to the goodness of my heart have decided to add an additional 20K to your original contract.
Greening: Wow, thanks.
Murray: All i need you to do is sign here to make it official
*Greening signs it
Murray: Thanks for the signature.
Greening: Your welcome. Anything else?
Murray: Yes, we are now buying you out. Have a nice day and don't let the door hit you on the way out.
Greening:****
I will show myself out now.
