Wild buying out Suter and Parise

I assume they tried to trade them and nobody wanted the players?  They could have saved money had they traded for scraps and offered to eat 50% of the contract.  The dead cap hit on those 2 with the buyout is nuts.

They would have freed up about $3M in less space for the coming season that way - and that's assuming they could find a deal where they didn't have to take a contract back. They would have been able to save much more in future years, but this was clearly a set of moves made with short-term thinking.
