Fowler would at least cost you Kapanen+ Not these pieces.

Fowler only has next year before he hits UFA status, get a 2nd round pick, a 2nd/3rd pairing defenseman and a 2nd/3rd line forward.

How much more do you want for an expiring contract?

Otherwise if you want more I need to be able to extend him before any trade is final.

Anaheim would never do that deal lol and that's too much for Zaitsev. Kapanen should be playing with Boyle I think.. I don't like Zeitsev playing with Gardner either.

We all know Zaitsev is getting a long term deal, and around $4.5M fits pretty much right where people think he will get.

You want to pay a 4th line centre $4M a year. Why are you buying out Lupul? After next year he is done. All you do is create 2 years of cap use for a guy with only 1 year left.

It's cute that you think that Marincin is more than a 7th Dman on any other team in the NHL. To be honest, he'd be in San Diego playing in the AHL if he were a member of the Ducks. Hyman would be on the 4th line as a Duck. SJ's 2nd round pick is something like 52nd overall. You've taken one of the their top dmen, and haven't filled any needs that they might have. How much more would they want for an expiring contract? Well, Stl. got a 1st, 2nd, good forward prospect and good goaltending prospect for a couple of months of Shatty, so I'm guessing the answer would be a lot!

I looked at your 2nd post first. This offer for Fowler is even worse. A bottom pair defenseman (7th defenseman on some teams) and a 3rd liner for a top 2-4 defenseman? Even if he is a UFA at seasons end they'll get a lot more than this for him.

Try again.
