Initial Creation Date: Jun. 29, 2021
Published: Jun. 29, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
I know it's unrealistic just wanted to see how it would work with him. I am also aware that the defense is certainly a little weak. I am also unsure about the deal with Anaheim. Would love to hear thoughts on this though, only my second time!

Danault will just stay in MTL for that price and will play more minutes

2 (almost 3) players around $10M and Ceci on the blue line. I think I’ve heard this one before. . . Lol

Ducks, or any team, might want more to eat $4.5M for Koskinen. Bruins fans on here aren’t keen on trading Debrusk right now. His value is low and it doesn’t make sense to trade him when it’s at its lowest.

I guarantee at least one person is going to be stupid enough to say that Eichel cost Draisaitl

Haha ya oh god...

The only reason I used Debrusk was due to recent trade rumors of him going to Edmonton as per https://www.thedailygoalhorn.com/nhl-trade-bait-tracker-2021/. However, I agree probably would have to move more with Koskinen. Thanks for the feedback!

Oilers deciding to use cap space to get a third all-star center in lieu of solid goaltending or defense would be the most Oilers thing ever. So I can't even make fun of this.

Haha it felt appropriate, however, I think Ullmark is a strong starting goalie on a brutal team and would do well with a new organization.

NO to Ceci, he sucks and definitely dont give him term.

Barrie, only keep him IF Klefbom is NOT coming back in my opinion.

I think the Eichel trade is a bit weak but damn would it make for amazing forward options and an Olympic class powerplay lineup!

I think if you can get Eichel, don't go for DeBrusk. Especially if it costs you on defence.

Danault was offered $5M x 6 in MTRL and turned it down last years so his next contract will be in that price range.

I think your idea is crazy and I love it, just a few of the other moves don't make sense but I also have no idea what I would do. Edmonton needs a goalie and a defenseman. If they can score that, they will be just fine.

PS - no chance is Seattle taking Turris. They will take Jones most people seem to think. Turris is not worth anything.

That isn’t a rumor though. That’s just some dude with a blog.

Edmonton just doesn’t have the pieces buffalo would want in return for Eichel. Broberg is a good prospect, but Buffalo doesn’t need more left-handed defensemen. They need more forward prospects, and Edmonton absolutely would need them to take on payroll in return to have any chance of making the trade work.

Which is the exact definition of a rumor though.

a currently circulating story or report of uncertain or doubtful truth.

be circulated as an unverified account.

But I agree with you I don’t think he will move this off-season with his trade value where it’s at, and the whole point of it being a rumour it’s probably not true lol.

I could start a blog in five minutes and post a story about McDavid getting traded to Calgary for a Brian Burke dip cup they found somewhere in the rink. Wouldn’t make it a rumor. We should try to stick to guys with some sort of verified insider info.

Again I don’t disagree with you. It’s not like it’s something verified or even valuable it’s just a cool idea to play with. If I was going for something serious I would have indicated that in the description, this was just for a fun idea. In the future if I try to go for a more serious build I’ll be sure to use a verified source. Thank you!

Just saying. It’s not a rumor. It’s an idea. The problem is people see someone say, “rumor,” around here and there’s 300 ACGMs with some bloggers crack pot idea.

I’ll definitely keep the Barrie and Ceci thing in mind who would you say is a better option for them?

That debrusk move I thought was kinda fun cause his trade value is really low and only cost an extra million. But I do see what you mean there’s no real depth on D.

Didn’t know about the Danault deal but definitely will keep that in mind.

I really enjoyed reading through that so thank you and I appreciate you liking the idea!! Thanks for being so nice about it haha!

Also yes I did hear about the Jones move just turris worked better for cap.

Ya your right just thought it’d be a neat idea to to slot him in. What would you think about Armia? What might he fetch?

I think Barrie is a great fit in EDM if he signs a reasonable deal but he seems to really like that cashola.

Ceci isn't great but has worked in PIT and if he is smart will stay where it is working. He is still young and can build his value another year or two before signing the deal that ends up hurting a team.
