Description

I think this trade makes sense for both teams; BOS gets a big strong rw for krech and would be a great net front presence on the pp (something that was a problem during the playoffs), and OTT gets 2 young guys who can fill up spots on the lineup and potentially grow as well as getting a veteran dman who can protect the kids and eat alot of minutes while potentially putting up career numbers. OTT can then easily trade miller at the deadline. Retaining ryan’s salary makes sense as well since its cheaper than buying him out, and it helps OTT reach the cap floor.

I would much rather have ryan over perry considering hes 2yrs younger and isnt coming off a major injury

Ottawa 100% does not come near this. How can you expect them to retain 4 mil on Ryan and take on Backes. The players you give up are not even close to making it worth it.

People making moves to Ottawa always throw in "to help them reach the cap floor". That's when you know it's a bad trade.

if they did it in a two part trade where the bruins take on bobby ryan before july 1st, and trade backes after july 1st, even with the retention, ottawa saves 6.25 million dollars in real money.

this trade is to acc free up cap space for OTT more than it is for BOS, u save money on a bobby ryan retention instead of a buyout and backes is only owed 5mil total in real money for the remainder of his contract, and when hes traded to a contender with a 50% retention its even less real money owed. Sure a draft pick could be added or that 4th can be taken away but it seems even to me

That is an EASY no from Ottawa, also Backes doesn’t waive for them anyway
