I think it's funny that the Philly trade proposed here gets posted all the time by Sharks fans, but I don't think I've ever seen a Flyers fan post that trade from the other perspective despite Burns being the better player

No thanks. Not trading Coyle. He also has an NMC/NTC, living his dream playing for his boyhood team. He’s not leaving if he has a choice. No interest in Simek.

Fair enough. If I'm SJ I'm looking for a Coyle/Kadri/even Tierney type of player, ideally a bigger-body and more physical center like Kadri, who can anchor a 3rd line and even more ideally have a right-handed shot. Chmelevsky has a shot at being that in a couple of years but until then, one that's signed for a medium 4-6mil cap hit or less.

EDIT: ROSTER EDITED -- took Coyle out bc I do concede he's not getting moved by BOS so realistically, SJ's options if we're looking for such a player is to 1) try and pry Strome from NYR but more realistically, nab Stepan+slight-retention from ARI for Simek and a mid-round pick/prospect.

I think Habs would take that offer. With Suzuki and KK's emergence, Danault's minute will not be enough to keep him happy so only makes sense to move him somewhere he'll get more mins.

His qualifying offer is very scary tho when the 4 years is up

It gets tiring mentioning this over and over again but the stigma on the 10mil qualifier after 4 years is incredibly overblown.

1) That's 4yrs of Meier at a cost-contained 6mil before he gets to be, at worst, a UFA.

2) Whatever team that has him has the option to offer him a deal at whatever he's worth at that point during his year before he's a RFA. Let's say 8mil. If Meier doesn't agree to it and thinks he can get more, let him test free agency. If he gets an offer above 8mil, say 8.5mil, see if you can match it or not. If not, let him walk. If yes, and he wants to stay, then match it. Most likely, he'll be worth 8mil and if he likes it there, he'l sign an extension for 8mil and case is closed.

Who knows, he can be worth 10+mil at that point, and if so, your team can be thankful they can lock him up at 10mil only.

i agree. I think it may be that PHI fans are actually impressed with niskanen. so there doesn't seem to be this incredible need for Burns... yet. Next season, burns will have a billion points and flyers fan will be reposting this trade saying "why didn't this trade ever get done"

I also think PHI wants Voracek to be on the team for leadership especially if they make a run. hes been a staple for 8 years, always honest (even brutal at times), and is known to be a glue guy. You worry that the locker room would suffer if you trade him

again, Burns is the better player on paper, but if you lose Voracek and then go on to lose in the first round (or worse), it almost signals huge changes and I dont think PHI fans are ready to gut the team

One reason why I think the trade works well is that both teams with either Burns/Voracek, who're at basically the same cap hit and IMO production for the remainder of their contracts, have the option to leave their player unprotected, and in fact both teams probably will with their existing player and likely both players will be selected by SEA if so. They can do the same with the traded player too.

That came out wordy but I think what I'm trying to say gets though.

10 mil AAV, he’s not worth that and I highly doubt he will be

Yeah I think as Cheech said, its being overblown. Unless he plays somewhat capable of warranting that cap hit, which then fine, he knows he won't get it. IT IS a factor that will make signing him harder but I think he'll have no problem signing under that if he's happy with his role, the city, etc. the 10M thing is just an extra negotiating tactic but its not the end all be all.

The only real advantage he has as a result is the option to get out of dodge if he doesn't like where he is and sign as a UFA somewhere he prefers. If you are team like Arizona, this should frighten you. Teams that generally have no problem keeping their players happy, not so much. Of course, maybe he comes to MTL and absolutely hates it, which then yeah we're screwed but by that time, we'd have more than enough time to trade him somewhere else to recoup some value.

You’re right it’s probably overblown and I doubt he gets payed that much, it sounds like a very unnecessary headache, but ig the deal isn’t bad for Montreal (as in Danault for Timo)

I don't get why Doug Wilson is so soft in contract negotiations to players not named Labanc. Handing out no movement and trade clauses like they're candy, 8 year max deals for anyone age 30 and up. Another example of it here with Timo. Just unnecessary.

Lol that’s a very good point. He’ll slap u w an 8 year NMC NTC contract if you score like over 40 points

Different note. Please tell me you guys are not really giving up a 1st for Dubnyk/Donato. What are the rumblings out there on that.

Nah I doubt that. I would absolutely fume and would hope that management would have enough sense to cost DW his job if that ever happened.

More likely is that yea, unfortunately Dub is heading to SJ with some retention. Probably with Donato which is okay I guess but really really deflating in the sense that there's so many different guys they can try to acquire instead either via trade of free agency. Hell, just go with Leonard or Gregor instead of Donato for a lesser cap hit.

It'll probably be one of Gambrell or Gregor heading back the other way plus maybe a mid-to-low pick.

There is something more to that story.
Even if both player ball out next year no one else in the nhl would give up a first so why would we it’s bad business, especially considering Allen who has played better and is younger only got a 3rd and they both make similar salary
