    seems like the koch bros buy this byproduct of refining tar sands oil, refine it and sell it to china as fuel (reg's in the US... and presumably canada... prohibit it from being used as fuel).

    Re: Free Agency 2013 - Amnesty Candidates

    well the question is whether they would rather have dipietro's salary + niederreiter/1st round pick, or some other $4.75mn earner.

    nope.

    the isles need that 4.75 against the cap.

    if they traded him, they'd have to replace it.

    i'm not saying they wouldn't trade him in the right deal; just that it doesn't make a whole lot...

    it was a sunk cost the second they signed the contract.

    they budgeted for 15 years of dipietro at 4.75 per year.

    it isn't like they need that cap space. but what they DO need is to spend to the...
