Detroit passes, not giving up picks for this type of move. We are rebuilding and the 2nds are too valuable

Aight cool. Figured DET needs LHDs but if they value picks more that's fine.

McNabb isn't worth a 2nd.

Think it's in the ballpark. McNabb is decent bottom-4 defensive D with an affordable contract.

Think of what Määttä got in return for instance. Kahun+5th. Imo McNabb is an upgrade over that as he's pretty much as good but just cheaper.

They do but a 30yr old for a 2nd round pick is too much.

Maatta is awful he got benched after 1 playoff gamed Jack Johnson was the player that took spot from him.

To be fair, McNabb would get you a 2nd from a playoff team, the value is right, just Detroit is rebuilding so it doesn't make sense for them to give that pick up for this player. But any playoff team would do this deal, Martinez and Dillon both got 2nds and are comparable to McNabb.

Jets aren't giving up Lowry and a 3rd for a "cap dump". I'm not saying Stastny isn't good or doesn't have any value. But for Vegas, his cap needs to be moved, I'm sure WPG would be okay to take him, you're just probably going to have to give something up, just like any other cap dump. IT might not be a lot to move him, but the Jets definitely shouldn't be moving a 3rd and Lowry for Stastny. Try Lowry and a 6th for Stastny + a 2nd or prospect in equal value. @MisstheWhalers I need your help on value!!! Also you'd be happy to see who he packaged for Stastny

Nah mate.

With one year left on each player's contract, I think Stastny holds more value.

At the very least he can do something on the offensive end.

Partly retained the cost of him isn't breaking the bank. VGK is not in position where they must pay to move that contract.

He has two years left and he's still an upgrade over both Canes goalies. Think it's fair as it is.

If necessary, they can partly retain his contract.

They’re not in a cap crunch? Without moving him they’re 6m over the cap. I could understand how he has value, but he’s a cap dump if they’re going to move him, it’s going to cost. If they don’t want to pay anything, remove Lowry and make the 3rd a 6th and it’s fair.

Meh. Would rather just keep him at that point and do some other corresponding moves.

Stastny for a 6th rounder just doesn't seem right.

I'd be curious to see what teams would be willing to give up for him. I don't think it would be a lot.

Both canes goalies were better than him and cost the same. To make it worse MAF’s are expected to plummet those last two years. Its going to take a lot.

I personally think that a 40 point rental C at $5M can land a 3rd.

I mean, they landed a 4th from WPG with 10-point Eakin lol.

Honestly if Stastny can be as good 2C for the Jets as he was couple of years ago, getting him at $5M for a 3rd is pretty cheap in itself.
