Ya I see your point with the 10 year contract in FA when you know they will end up getting bought out. Something should be done about that. Maybe make it that any player that had to receive compensation to sign gets an automatic 100% buy out fee? Which would be easy to track since we could devote a thread to any of those players. That would likley take care 90% of those cases where gm's sign players with the intent of cutting them a few seasons into the contract.
I agree with you on the agent thing too which is why I have never moved a player that I personally signed when involving an agent. The worst I've done was cut Sizemore in the last year of his contract. Which by that point he was a bench player and would have likley wanted to get some real playing time elsewhere.
