Now the window open, and a source says that #NYR have bought out Kevin Shattenkirk.

Just to clarify, exactly when this window opens is still unclear. But #NYR will buyout (or have bought out) Shattenkirk, whenever possible.

Not the route I was hoping they would take, but then I would certainly hope that Gorton & Co. understand this area better than I do!

Sounds like he had no takers for the trade chips he was offering, so had to go the buyout route.

I will get up a blog later, jammed at work now. All signs seem to point to Kevin Shattenkirk getting bought out. To me, this was one of the lat options to pursue

Shattenkirk was absolutely awful, lets be honest here

you could make an argument that Redden played better than Shatty did when comparing their two seasons

He’ll probably make more now than if he signed with a different team not at a discount. I wonder where he goes and for how much

Mailed it in is an unfair characteriztion. Didnt play well, had injuries but didnt just mail it in. Can criticize his play, but saying mailed it in questions his character, that's unfair.

I'm telling you, I've talked about this play several times, in Vancouver last March, one of Tyler Motte's goals that game, Shatty's giveaway that preceded the goal, I can't give him the benefit of the doubt he was actually trying

You were hoping for $7.5M in dead cap space next year??
A below market value trade with $2M retained would have been preferable.

This must be your best off season ever, signed Trouba and dumped Shattenkirk.

Possibly the worst play of the season.

Shatty still here at 6.5 mil next year would have still been dead space

You can make the argument that maybe Adam Fox isn't ready this coming season, but he should be ready for 2020-21

and the way K'Andre Miller looks, he could be ready then too

Would have rather seen Staal bought out. Staal is only ok on the PK. Shatty is better than Staal at this point
