Buying Picks and Trading Eichel

Forums/Armchair-GM

Page 1 of 1

Created by: OrganizedConfusion55

Team: 2021-22 Buffalo Sabres

Initial Creation Date: Jul. 27, 2021

Published: Jul. 27, 2021

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

*Will they do all of this, no. Do I wish they would, yes. But I am hoping they at least reach out to some of these teams. With where we are with our salary cap, we can help out quite a few teams.

*Ferland seems to be coming back this year, maybe not at the start of it though. If he is done, and the Canucks can LTIR, remove a 2nd round pick from them.
*I don't see Dahlin or Jokiharju signing long term extension at the moment. They are going to want a lot more than what their play has warranted. Both sign with 1 year left of RFA status.

Free Agent Signings

RFA	YEARS	CAP HIT
Bellows, Kieffer	1	$950,000
Asplund, Rasmus	1	$975,000
Mittelstadt, Casey	2	$1,400,000
Fitzgerald, Casey	1	$925,000
Dahlin, Rasmus	3	$4,750,000
Jokiharju, Henri	2	$2,750,000

UFA		YEARS	CAP HIT
Hakanpää, Jani		1	$950,000
Bernier, Jonathan		1	$3,750,000

Trades

BUF

Greenway, Jordan
Rask, Victor
Rossi, Marco
2022 2nd round pick (MIN)
2023 1st round pick (MIN)

MIN

Eichel, Jack

Additional Details:

I feel like Minny is the one that will land Eichel, and it will be something like this, maybe its two instead of a 1st and a 2nd, maybe it includes Dumba, seems like most want him out of Minny due to his contract. But something along these lines.

BUF

Kaut, Martin
2023 2nd round pick (COL)
2024 2nd round pick (COL)

Additional Details:

Proposed by an Av fan

https://www.capfriendly.com/armchair-gm/team/2622704

COL

Olofsson, Victor

Additional Details:

Saw this from a Colorado Avalanche fan, I like it, and I would pull this trade off with Olofsson if something like this is available.

BUF

Bellows, Kieffer [RFA Rights]
Hickey, Thomas
Komarov, Leo
2023 2nd round pick (NYI)

Additional Details:

Perhaps Bellows is removed and it is just the 2nd to shred 5.5 in salary cap.

Frees up money to Resign Sorokin, Pelech and Beauvillier. Also allows them to go after a few big UFAs - Parise, Suter, and Landeskog

NYI

Future Considerations

BUF

Johnson, Tyler
2023 1st round pick (TBL)

Additional Details:

3 years of 5 million is not going to be cheap to get rid of. In my mind, any team that helps Tampa, gets a 1st, or they shouldnt do the trade.

TBL

Future Considerations

BUF

Koskinen, Mikko
Neal, James
2022 1st round pick (EDM)

Additional Details:

Pick is lottery protected for 2022 and 2023 - not in 2024.

Again, this is just like Tampa, a 1st or no trade. Its over 10 million in cap relieve this year, and another 5.75 million in 2022/2023.

EDM

Future Considerations

BUF

Additional Details:

I feel like Washington needs some Cap help, however, they have some players on team friendly cap hits that might need to go due to OV and others.

Not sure if its something they would consider, but I would send them some mid picks for either Eller and Kempny, or for just one of them.

WSH

2023 2nd round pick (COL)
2023 3rd round pick (BUF)
2024 3rd round pick (BUF)

Buyouts

Cody Hodgson: $791,667

Buried

Yeah COL isn’t doing that. That’s a heavy overpay.

You ask too little of TB and EDM (and VAN, but that ship has sailed anyway).

Agreed, there are times where he is a very frustrating player to watch, however, hes a great locker room guy and when hes on his game, hes a top pair D man on 95% of teams in the NHL, he just isnt on his game all the time which is so frustrating

More could be added, the main piece was a first. But apparently a lot of these teams are buying out these one year players. Maybe tampa throws in a player like Joseph.

Neal had two years before being bought out moments ago. Eating his cap alone would have been worth more than a 1st. Same goes for Johnson.

Yeah I know doesn’t make them right though, I would do that trade in heart beat if I was BUF.
