Description

Does this move the needle for Vegas?

Moving Eakin would get them under the cap and they'd get what is in my opinion a solid return for a 27 year-old "prospect" with good potential but 0 NHL games.

Does Vegas want more? Are the Wings giving up too much here? What are other teams willing to offer?

Awful value depending on the prospect, and you're not getting BOTH eakin and gusev

Gusev wants 4m per. He’s not signing for 1. Vegas would have signed him already if he’d take that.

Sounds like Gusev is looking for a $4 million AAV and Eakin is probably Vegas' last choice of guys they'd want to move to create cap space, gotta think they'd prefer to move Reaves and/or Holden before Eakin.

I guess I don't see Eakin as some huge get. He's a 4th line center on a good team on a 1 year deal. Though he did net 20 goals last year. What if you upgraded that prospect to an A- one?

Quoting: MisstheWhalers

I'd take a flyer on Reaves, but would not be willing to give up nearly as much. Updated Gusev's contract
