If Bryz keeps underperforming it's unlikely that the team will be as capable as the 2010 team at making up for goalie issues. If we're lucky the cap will continue rising 4-5 mil a year and that problem/risk will be erased...until that happens, we need Bryz to be worth every cent, especially while the young guys learn how
to be effective two way players.
Well, I guess we're screwed if you're right. Bryz was never worth 5.7M and fans expecting that from him will be sorely disappointed. No one here is going to argue that he isn't overpaid.... having it be the centerpoint of almost every thread on these boards is assinine. That's all I'm saying.
