Description

Assuming the cap will go up to 83M (will still work at 73.5M). Sad to see Krug go but he's going to want a monster contract that the Bruins can't pay. Nordstrom could fetch a 3rd and if worse comes to worse we can either keep him or trade him for a 4th. Backes is shipped to Colorado with Celarik and a 2nd for a prospect. Colorado needs depth if they want to make a push. They are also most likely going to get one of Kakko or Hughes so Jost isn't a big loss. To me, Kappanen is worth a 2nd and Toronto has no room to match the 4M offer

Hard pass. I wouldnt take on Backes for a 2nd and Cehlárik...and you think you are going to get Jost while getting rid of Backes and that horrible contract. You are really undervaluing Jost and undervaluing how much yuo have to give up to get rid of Backes

plus you ratioanle behind the trade is wild...Avs want depth so they trade for an AHL guy and a over paid guy who is forced to be a fighter just to stay in the NHL? Thats not depth.

I will trade you Santini, a better 2020 1st rounder and a 2019 2nd rounder for Torey Krug to go to the Devils.

He's got 1 point in his last 9 - he's a prospect. Chelarik is too. Backes can still play on a 3rd line - he's a depth guy now but yes, his contract is horrible. Definitely not worth his contract. But the avs have the cap and to compensate I put in a 2nd rounder.
