Daley has also "killed his value." I think we'd be lucky to get a 5th out of him. Also no way Canes take that trade.

You’re right about Daley; but if we’re retaining salary, then we’d need at least a 3rd. read a Pitt blog siting Daley as a potential low cost target so I ran wit it. As for Fleury, he spends more time in the press box than on the ice, I think it’s possible.

Retain 50% on Green and get a 3rd or 4th. Somebody would 100% spend a 4th on a $2.5M Green. Better than keeping him for nothing. I'm iffy on Daley's value, if we retain 50% I'm still not even sure what we would get out of him. I am more inclined to just keep the guy. Call up Seider post deadline to burn the ELC and let Daley mentor him the last 20 games. But I could see him getting moved if theres interest. I wouldnt trade AA at the deadline for picks right now. His value is at a low point, and I don't think we could get a 1st rn. I would move him for a "hockey trade" if the right offer came, example Georgiev and Andersson for AA + a late pick or something like that. But if not, wait till the draft and see if his value increases, or as you said, "worst case" just sign him to a short term deal and hope as the team gets better, his production and value goes back up.
