Hauser for Dalen Terry if CHI is still in play-in contention by the deadline. Probably get a 2nd after Sam bounces back shooting wise.
Saves BOS $4.6M. That coupled with a Simons move that saves $7.5M (which teams not over aprons can do) gets you under the tax. If you save slightly less on the 2nd deal, you pull the cap shenanigan moves with X and/or Boucher and 10-days.

That's how low your valuation of Hauser is?
Sam Hauser may not be an All-Star, but he's not trash either.

It’s not Sam, it’s the money. And the fact that we have 3 other young wings we can’t find time for. I know we don’t have to duck the tax, but like to explore ways to do it since there are obvious benefits to it. You can just ignore these posts, we know you aren’t a fan of these types of moves.

Don't worry, this will be over soon.
Brad's next move will settle the debate over the money thing.

Cheaper contract and a second seems pretty realistic. I’d be surprised to get a first back for him.
I’d hope to get a useful player back though.

I like Sam but I’d like to be developing Walsh, Minott and Gonzalez more.
If we could have Hauser from last year then that’s different . I think his back is really slowing him and it might be time to move on.
