Description

Why trade Turris? Still has loads of potential, especially since he will be in theory playing against other teams 3rd liners. If we need to move him for cap space for Josi, lets do this next of season when we know Josis contract and term. Additionally Turris value is relatively low compared to where we got him, all I foreseeably see his value doing is going up. I say we go out and try to get better top 9 scorers on the wing to really round out the roster.
Give up a 3rd for PuljuJarvi essentially. Honestly think they could nab him for 1.5 million, but went a little high to be safe. Tons of upside great chance for the preds to take. worst case he's a bottom 6 guy with alot of skill, i'd prefer him over the likes of Salomaki or Freddy G.
Reunite Justin Williams with Lavi, takes a bit of a pay cut for one last run at a cup to be a bottom 6 guy, a hell of a lot less pressure on him than was at Carolina.
Also would be fine trading Weber/Freddy G/Salomaki/Irwin for any kinds of picks, but wouldnt be the end of the world if they stayed eathir, maybe just listen around for something that may come up to move a bit of cap/ aquire late round draft picks.

I don't understand why you would want to trade him either, thats a solid 3 centers. I think the guy who should be let go is bonino, no one needs 4 mill on a 4th line center.

My guess is because your spending 26 million on centers... who needs a 4 million dollar fourth line center and a 6 million dollar third line center.....

I agree, they have the cap space, having depth down the middle is a luxury to have. Depending on who Nashville wants to keep, Granlund, Watson, Smith, Josi, Hamhuis, Irwin, and Weber are expiring next season. That opens up around 18 million for Josi who is really the only core piece.

Who do you think was better in their prime, Kadri or Bonino?

Josi will probably get 8 years 72 million.
