Description

Boldy will probably have a couple games in Iowa and then right to the big club. If you’re burning that first year, you gotta get your money’s worth. How do you make a home for him? Can you move Johansson to a contender? Or do you work a trade with Greenway for a similar aged C?

I don't really know his trade value, but something with a base of Greenway for Vilardi was something I've been looking at. Seems like he could be expendable to LA with them now having Byfield and Turcotte.

The Wild should be moving at least one of Johansson, Bonino or Bjugstad within the next week and a half anyway. There's no point in just letting all of these contracts expire if you can get a draft pick or two out of them.

That's not very realistic. The Kings will just move one of them to wing when push comes to shove.

With so many teams close to the cap it's going to be tough to move someone to make room for Boldy, as much as I'd love to see him. My guess is he marinates in Iowa and if we make the playoffs apparently we will have the space to call him up.

I would honestly just let him play out the season in Iowa and only burn his ELC if some major injuries occur. The team seems to have great chemistry right now, so unless they start to fall back in the standings, I'd rather let Boldy dominate in the AHL for a little bit

Given how cap space accrues and contracts work, it should be fairly easy to move Johansson, Bonino and Bjugstad at the deadline if you find someone willing to pay for them.
