I don’t think so. The team can put him on LTIR if he’s not healthy. If he’s healthy, he can still contribute. If the team buys him out, there is a cap hit of $0.833MM for two seasons. It’s not that easy to find a replacement for the “saved” cap hit of $2.5MM-$0.833MM = $1.667M cap hit player that performs as well.

may want to get younger next year. Or cheaper. We’ll see, I guess.

I don’t think there is a better player than Samuelsson at the cap hit of $1.667MM. So if they buy him out, it’s a really bad sign that the team wants to get worse.

I would agree with that. And after the surgeries, hopefully he’ll be back up to speed.

Good veteran presence for any team.

In any case, despite playing through his injury he helped score some key goals in the playoffs. I think he’s awesome. :)

I thought they want all the Canadian teams in one division. That way they can move Colarado to the Pac.

There won’t be a time-zone difference, but those games against the Ducks/Sharks/Kings are going to be a doozy…. and the flight there isn’t that ideal either.

At least the Albertans are close.

Doesn't make sense to me

They’ll want to keep the Canadian teams together – and the PAC would be even more travel for Vancouver. At least in the NW you have Calgary and Edmonton nearby. The California teams are a lot further away.

Just move Colorado into it. They’re a lot closer, geographic wise

The problem with the current alignment is that there are three time zones in the NW division, and the travel between Minnesota and Vancouver is very long. Moving Vancouver to Pacific will remove that long travel within the division, at the expense of losing the shorter travel between Vancouver and Albertan cities.
