The Canucks can afford to throw that money away, they earned a $24+ million dollar profit last season. The Wild are operating in the red to the tune of about a $6 million loss. We have to be more careful how the money is spent and on whom...and it certainly isn't dollar-smart to have a guy making that much money relegated to back-up duty to start off the season.
If he poops the bed during the season and forces Yeo's hand, that's a different story. But, assuming he is healthy and on the roster, he will be a lock to start the season in net, you can book it.
