Quoting: DogDayCaps2
what an idiotic take....
@Tight_Fit
Let's take the worse case scenario and Washington wins the cup the next 3 years. The 3 firsts would still be equal to a 10 OA pick.
Schultz and Hagelin have the value of a 3rd each, so 2 thirds. I am presuming they are included to help with the cap. If Buffalo retained 50% of their salary, I am sure there are many teams who would want them.
McMichael on the other hand is the
Jewel of this trade, and I will give the value of 2 first round picks.
Alexeyev is a very good LHD prospect who also has the value of a first round pick, unfortunately
Buffalo has excellent depth at LHD, but I will still add in his value.
IMO Leason's value is difficult to place, let's agree to give him minimum value.
Then finally a 2nd and 3rd, both will be late in the round.
So what is my total four first round picks, 3 thirds, and a second and Leason who I do not know how to value. BTW, I said this is the worse case scenario.
Six picks,
one top prospect, one very good prospect and some Sabre fans say no?
Jack have fun playing with Ovi, get ready to put your name on the Conn Smythe Trophy!
