Thread: The Obligatory Offseason Chore
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Masonh618</b></div><div>Korczak? Last year was literally his first professional season...

Now I'm glad we can finally have some common ground because Goodrow is indeed a cap dump, but not the MASSIVE extent that you're exaggerating. It's $3.6M to a team looking to reach the cap floor, not Vlasic's $8M. Moreover, his trade value is the highest it's ever been with the Rangers. Would this trade be rejected last summer? Yes. This summer? Really doubt it.

We even got a 5th round pick for Ryan Reaves for crying out loud. It's only a goddamn 5th round pick.</div></div>

Lol, ok so

1. Sharks can sign free agents to hit the cap floor, most annoying thing is fans thinking the Sharks want their cap dumps to hit the cap floor as if their doing them a favor lol (I'm looking at you MTL, no one wants Anderson)
2. 3.641 for 3 MORE YEARS for a guy who put up 12 points. That's at LEAST a high 2nd to dump. The term is the really brutal aspect
3. Korczak is at BEST a 3rd line scorer at his peak. 21 years old and it was not a good year. He doesn't have very much value
4. Vlasic's cap hit is 7 mil. At least get that right. And he has one less year than Goody. And again I was using him as a joke the help illustrate how getting value back for a dump makes no sense

Thread: i probably underpaid on everything i dunno
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BoringBrianMacLellan</b></div><div>Personally, I think he's got potential to come into a situation like San Jose with a fresh start and do well. This is less of a dump and more of doing right by a guy and finding him an opportunity to play. He had a some rough games, but for the most part he was pretty solid in the Caps lineup, and you can definitely see some upside in the offensive zone. Then he went into Players Assistance so we didn't see him the rest of the year. If he comes back reinvigorated next year, there could be something there for you. Is he a sexy option for your 2nd pair? no, but he's still 26, and if nothing else, could be a pump and dump trade piece. and if it doesn't work out, he's gone after the season (which you're not pushing for playoffs anyways) and all you lost was a few spots in the 5th round. It's super low risk.

But I do understand that a bigger name would be better for the top 4</div></div>

Yeah that's kind of the entire right side of the blue line though. He's probably the 4th best out of 5 very average RHD. They're d got eaten alive last season and it helped get Celebrini but now they need to start building a competitive roster and clear out the logjam they already have. I really like Bear and was a big fan of his when he broke into the league but I don't see a fit for SJ
