I guarantee that Cujo will not be kept on the shelf for later use. His contract is too high, and you can't just treat a player like that and expect him to compete for you when you finally decide its time for him to play. And if Cujo has any competitive edge left in him at all, he will not want to sit on the bench and waste away all year. Not too mention that Cujo is really the only bargaining chip DET has left to attempt a trade that will bring in a replacement center. The only thing that can save them from that is if Fedorov decides the market is too rough and takes the 4yr 32mil offer left on the table by Holland.
