our entire top line
they only cost only 2.13 m more combined but we can retain on Tatar to balance it our take players back .
i still think if you told Gourde he could come to MTL and play 42 games a year infront of his friends ,family and neighbours he'd waive his NTC making him the natural player to join Kuch .but people are convinced he'd for some reason see no value in that so i'm not sure who else we could take to balance out contracts and cap unless we retain and take Mathieu
They can slot in as your 3rd line giving you a shutdown line that can generate momentium and kill penalties
You’re goal is to convince players to waive from a Stanley cup contender, in a state with low taxes and beautiful weather all year long while taking minimal cap in return. The teams that can afford to take on that cap ( and with term) are not usually contending teams. So you want these guys to go somewhere with less opportunities to win, deal with sh*t weather and take money out of their pocket? Yea it’s possible but highly unlikely. Remind me again how great a GM Yzerman was?
Plenty of ways, trade gourde and someone else. lots of different players we can move around, trading Kuch is just plain stupid
1. KUCH gets traded only if we win the cup. Only. Only.
2. Western Conference> Metro> Atlantic
3. How the hell are you gonna move 3-4 NTCs, that’s hell
Nah they're in a cap bind even with trade kuch they need to trade a killorn type money, so yeah ik its not fair value but i wasn't trying to make it fair
or we could trade killer, paquette, and waived Johnson, and Coburn. Yanni will be picked up by seattle with a 1st so that we don't have to lose one of are good players.
