Help for Left D - trades with CBJ and CALG

Created by: RoadRunner72

Team: 2019-20 Montreal Canadiens

Initial Creation Date: Apr. 7, 2019

Published: Apr. 7, 2019

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Based on some feedback i added a few extra pieces leaving Montreal - an extra prospect to Calgary and a roster player to Columbus

I think these are realistic possibilities:

Flames have an excess of solid defensemen, and several young ones pushing for more ice time (Valimaki, Andersson, Kylington) and looking solid. Brodie could be the odd man out, as Treliving needs cap space for his RFA's in Bennett and Tkachuk. I'm thinking the price for an established top 4 guy would be reasonable.

Nutivaara from Columbus also makes some sense. He and Brodie are both left shots but often play right side on their team depth charts. Again the price may be reasonable for Montreal but will add experienced depth to their left side D while Mete and Romanov mature.

Assume Poehling is a regular next year, and Brook gets 10-15 games in NHL. Suzuki, Romanov and perhaps Ylonen arrive in fall 2020.

Habs select either Lavoie, Kaliyev or Newhook at #15 in the draft.

Free Agent Signings

RFA	YEARS	CAP HIT
Armia, Joel	3	$2,500,000
Lehkonen, Artturi	5	$2,500,000
Kulak, Brett	3	$1,250,000

UFA		YEARS	CAP HIT
Weal, Jordan		3	$2,250,000
Benn, Jordie		3	$1,500,000

Trades

MTL

Brodie, TJ

Additional Details:

Brodie goes UFA at summer 2020, Habs take on some risk that they may not be able to re-sign him.

CGY

Deslauriers, Nicolas
Fleury, Cale
2020 2nd round pick (MTL)

Additional Details:

Flames gain some assets, and cap space for 2019-20. Fleury may be NHL ready next year, more likely 2020-21. Deslauriers is a solid 4th line roster player at low cost.

MTL

Nutivaara, Markus

Additional Details:

Columbus has good depth on left side D once Werenski and Murray are re-signed, along with Harrington and Kukan. Right side would be Jones, Savard, Juulsen

CBJ

Hudon, Charles [RFA Rights]
Juulsen, Noah
2019 3rd round pick (MTL)

Additional Details:

Habs give a promising young defenseman (assuming eye injury heals) and some assets for a more established left-shot D-man

MTL

2021 4th round pick (CGY)

CGY

Ylönen, Jesse [Reserve List]

Additional Details:

An extra prospect added to Calgary package

MTL

2020 4th round pick (CBJ)

CBJ

Lehkonen, Artturi

Additional Details:

An extra piece for Columbus to sweeten the pot

What do you think is fair? Remember this is essentially for 1 year of TJ Brodie. Calgary will likely not want any significant salary coming back.

I added some extra pieces: Brodie + 4th for Ylonen + Fleury + Deslauriers + 2nd.
Same for Columbus: Nutivara + 4th for Lekhonen + Juulsen + Hudon + 3rd

Still think it's way off ? Calgary will not want roster players with any salary back.

Columbus declines.... Murray is good but injury prone and having nuttivara is a insurance for us.

Montreal accept both trades. I don't think they want to trade Juulsen, but if we could get a young established defender in a trade for him, I think they are game

CALG and LUMBUS trades are both pretty bad

I added a good roster player (Lekhonen) to the Columbus trade. Doesn't score a lot but excellent defensive forward, Tortorella will love him. Does that seem closer?

You're probably right. I added an extra piece to each trade, does that look closer to reality ?

The idea with Calgary is that they will not want any roster player with significant salary back. They need all that cash to sign RFA's this summer.

Maybe.... I honestly don’t think we can afford to move Nuttivarra right now unless we can get something the could be a 3rd pair/2nd pair LHD to replace him.

Good point, thanks for the feedback. Columbus is going to have a busy summer it seems, hope it works out. Good luck in the playoffs, who knows maybe Tampa will stumble.
