That Umberger/Hartnell trade was just hilariously awful.
DET has dead money in the Weiss buyout, Kindl, and whatever contract Danny Cleary has at the time.
Given how inept some front offices are and have shown, I'm mildly pissed off that Holland hasn't found someone to take Ericsson. A buyout would be a surprising move considering that they fucking sat Brendan Smith for him, the guy who by many advanced stats was actually Detroit's best defenseman, but it would certainly be a welcome one.
Not a fun buyout cap hit for Ericsson.
