Wasn't it Wendal Young that the Wings signed out of Pitt for $1 mil when nobody made that much, them he did nothing?

Hmm, don't know who you're talking about. There was a Pitt goalie named Wendell Young, but I don't think he ever played for the wings. We did, of course, trade for Wendel Clark from Tampa and he was underwhelming in his dozen games here.

Hey, Warren Young outscored Yzerman that year he played here. He had a great season before that and a solid season here. Hell, players now-a-days scoring that amount are getting $5M per season! I know inflation, but damn, could you imagine a player who has 2 above average seasons, what kind of contract he may get just to disappear for said entire contract? Hell, he would get at least 11 years with at least a $3.9M cap hit...
