Unless it's already been decided they'll cut him out in the june 15th to 30th buyout period, expect Bergevin to stand pat concerning Gomez, till the CBA expires, unless of course, he can manage to trade him at a low cost.

If the plan is to send him to the AHL, logic would have one wait till the 11th hour of the official season roster before waiving him.

But hey, its miracleman Bergevin (I like him, just jabbin the media), who knows, he might just convince Gomez to go play in the KHL.
A true miracleman would be to trade him for an upcoming young star but that never happens...
