        Isn't there usually a clause with the compliance buyout that the player needs to be on the roster by a certain date? Maybe the tdl?

        Honestly don't know, just thought of this scenerio would it be legal for the Leafs and Sharks to swap Karlsson and Tavares buyout each player and then each player could then sign with their original teams at half the cap hit?

        Or you just buy out Tavares because its a bad contract. No team is offering you that much for your free buyout. You only got 5th for retaining on Lehner.
        Sabres will bank on Skinner rebounding (which he should at least a little) and buyout Okposo, they have lots of cap. Bolts will buyout Gourde and trade someone else if they need to. Vancouver is fi e on cap so they dobt even need the buyout but its convenient. And your drunk with the sharks one

        That was one year and not a lot of money. This is a pretty different scenario.

        Bro your dreaming if you think we are giving you Hertl to get rid of Karlsson or Burns tears of joy. Those guys both have value and we arent looking to get rid of them.

        If teams are granted a compliance buyout, the Sharks should be going crazy. It will cost them a lot, but it could be a get out of jail card for them.

        You should be. They don't have much value given their contract situations.

        Buying out Tavares isn't really an option unless the Leafs have no issue putting up the flag that hey FA sign with us if you want to be bought out, it's not a bad contract,typical ledge and fairy comment hating on a team without reason

        Well you are saying Tavares is a good contract then turning around and thinking san jose is going to pay to get out of Karlsson and Burns. Thats so contradictory

        None of Burns Vlasic or Karlsson have value at their current term and ages, it's just reality. Sharks could buy 1 out but not both, I also suggested a Tavares and Karlsson swap with the Leafs buying out Karlsson and Sharks buying Tavares and each player would be free to re sign with their original team at half their current cap hit

        It's not contradictory though. If you can't see why, keep thinking.

        Tavares is 28 Burns is 37 mass difference bud, Leafs are a playoff team sharks are not, Tavares has been just fine at his current cap hit I'll agree a decline is most definitely possible but that's about 4 years out yet

        My bad, either way contacts are not comparable at this time.

        What if Matthews and Tavares were injured this year for 3 months at the same time and Andersen was less consistent then he already is. Do you think Toronto's a playoff team still? Sharks had a very good chance of winning the cup last year if Karlsson and Pavs were playing in the WCF. Burns was also a PPG defense last year.

        You are missing the point. Jones was a disaster the first half of the year and their top 2 centers were on LTIR for half the season

        Jones is a disaster. Not 'was'. None of this changes the fact that the Sharks are a team of guys who are past their prime and making way too much money for way too long. They aren't good.

        Jeeze its like talking to a wall. Look regardless of your opinion, the above trade proposals for a compliance buyout are absurdly lopsided. Most teams in the league are prepped for no compliance buyout thus no one is going to overspend to have 2 of them. Not to mention there are plenty of other teams that can offer the same thing so the value of a free buyout ticket will drop severely there too

        Quoting: Ledge_And_Dairy
        Jeeze its like talking to a wall. Look regardless of your opinion, the above trade proposals for a compliance buyout are absurdly lopsided. Most teams in the league are prepped for no compliance buyout thus no one is going to overspend to have 2 of them. Not to mention there are plenty of other teams that can offer the same thing so the value of a free buyout ticket will drop severely there too


        You were talking about how the Sharks were missing players, at the expense of their season. I replied accordingly. You never directed a comment at me regarding the trade proposals, nor I you. So how was that like talking to a wall?

        Just out of idle curiosity, has anybody looked at Erik Cernak's trade history recently? Let me save you the effort.

        My Los Angeles Kings traded Cernak for the soon-to-be-immortal Drake Rymsha and seven games of Ben Bishop.
