Vegas can't do that. They are taking on the more expensive player while retaining AND in a cap crunch

Yes, but their team is pretty much fully signed other than Martinez. So they don’t need to do much with the cap space. Maybe a 3rd/4th liner to replace Tuch.

I don’t think Vegas even touches that unless Rielly comes with an extension.

I do like the idea though.

Ya not the most realistic team but definitely a fun/creative one. I do like seeing ways dougie could make it

Bingo SJ get St Peter.

I mean, my hope would be- he goes there, likes playing with Theodore, they get past the first round (LOL) and he’s like yeah I’ll stay here. Or when they talk to him before the trade he tells mccrimmon he’s very open to an extension with them.

There’s no chance vegas is moving Tuch for ANY defenseman. We have two elite ones in Petro and Theo. Martinez will likely resign here. That leaves 3 spots. Whitecloud keeps getting better. So we need some 3rd pairing guys. Between Holden, Hague, coghlan And the rest of the developing picks. Just not smart to move Tuch for that
