According to Jeff Marek, the move will save Dallas $1.4 million, and with one year remaining on Suter's deal, they will simply add on another $1.4 million to their cap in the next two years. Ultimately, Suter started well in Dallas, but the team simply weren't happy with the production, and will now look to use that $1.4 million to add youth and depth to their team.
It's not clear what the future holds for 39-year old Suter, but after being bought out for the second time in four years, it's safe to say that his career is winding down, with the end potentially in sight.
