I think this is going to affect a lot of GM's in to having a quiet day tomorrow...errrr, today, and it ties in nicely with a lot of what dater says in his most recent blog post

It cements even further my opinion that the best thing the avs can do to improve their team is fire the coach. And I used to think that was an excuse because you couldn't fire the whole team.
It seems that in the very near future, there may be a lot more buyout/waiver situations than we see now, and you know, I'm not sure that's a bad thing either for the avs or for the league as a whole. It might cut down on some of the stupid money being thrown around these days.
