Description

Just trying something different. A way for EDM to mitigate paying a ridiculous price (1st rd picks) for getting rid of Campbell would be taking a bad contract back.

I can see Habs having no interest in doing this, because Armia's cap being buried isn't harming the Habs cap situation, and he can easily be bought out next year. But the debate is essentially: is getting a "premium" price of a 2nd rd pick for $600k in cap space to EDM and Primeau, and an additional prospect (up for debate) for the 2 additional years of Campbell at $4mil AAV worth it?

Trades

MTL

Campbell, Jack ($1,000,000 retained)
2024 2nd round pick (EDM)

Additional Details:

The retention is to make up some of the difference in cap between Campbell and Armia. EDM pays a 2nd rd pick for $600K in cap space and Primeau.

An additional prospect should be added from EDM going to MTL. The debate should be around what quality of prospect compensates MTL for Campbell's last 2 years at $4mil AAV

Bourgault?
Holloway?
Lavoie?

Edmonton takes that and runs, pretty sure this gets Hughes fired.

He's saying that + a prospect, but maybe you're saying that regardless, but considering that the Oilers are retaining 1M, I don't think it's that bad for MTL especially if they get someone like Holloway with some potential.

This. The trade is missing an additional piece. The debate is on the quality of the missing piece. Is adding Holloway enough? Too much?

The issue I have with a Campbell length contract, is it interfering down the line while we have bad cap elsewhere and impeding our ability to spend to the cap while trying to contend.
Now if we were able to arrange a Gallagher trade I'm interested. Maybe Anderson.
Not a good idea to move short term bad contracts for longer term unless it's really worth it, and there's no singular piece I want from Edmonton so we're talking multiple picks and or prospects.
