Team i had in mind for next season

Created by: Angusc
Team: 2022-23 Vancouver Canucks
Initial Creation Date: May 16, 2022
Published: May 22, 2022
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Main priorities for this thread: More cap space, additional picks, better quality RHDs, better 3rd line centre, younger players.

Note: I've seen lots of threads that have the Canucks valuing Marino from the Penguins as their RHD for a Miller trade. But hypothetically if Letang leaves, their D will be a downgrade. So Marino has to stay since he is basically their best Dman.

The Miller trade to me is the most likely destination, but it is dependent on the Capital's situation. It's somewhat similar to the threads I've seen, but I put Sheary in depending on whether or not the Capitals and the fans value McMichael or Lapierre more. Note due to Backstrom's injury and whether or not he will retire so Miller becomes his replacement. Main piece here is Iorio.

For the Durzi trade, i figure the team has so many RHD and we have the 2nd round from the Capitals. So we could use it to acquire him.

Durzi would cost a whole lot more than a mid round 2nd.

Pens fan here. You do NOT want Kapanen for 3.75mil. Trust me.

Im actually a big Kapanen supporter as far as Pens fans go. I think he's better than people think, however even I wouldn't consider him for over 2.5 mil. He just flat out looks like a ghost sometimes, goes through brutal dry stretches, and you cant even say its an opportunity thing since he played literally on every single line this season for extended periods of time.

Why in the world would Los Angeles want to trade a proven young RD for a future? Never mind the fact that it's a crummy second.

I figure that JR has an interest in him and thought about what he would want on his next contract at the time. But if thats the player who he is, it's an overpay

Sheary, Iorio, 1st, 2nd for Miller (-$2.625M)

Probably drop the 2nd. However, with Backstrom potentially coming off of the books, the Caps might not need the retention.

Caps counters:
Sheary, Iorio, 1st for Miller (-$2.625M)
Sheary, Iorio, 2nd for Miller

His Qualifying offer would only net him 1x840k since most of his previous contract was awarded in bonuses not salary. He'll obviously decline that, at arbitration he will be granted a minimum of 1x2.72mil (85% of his previous cap hit), so that means if you wanna trade for his rights and sign him, you'd need to offer him most likely 2-3 years in the 2.2-2.5 range. You can justify it to him by saying "well you can either get 1x2.72 in arbitration or we can give you 2.2-2.5 for more term" and I think he'd accept that.

If it goes to arbitration you're basically guaranteed to be overpaying him for one year, its just a matter of for how much. If you offer him term for slightly less, you could probably snag him for somewhere in the 2.2 range which I actually think is a fair price for him, despite what other pens fans say. Honestly. I'd even be willing to offer him a 4x2, more term for less money. That would be a good deal for him as it is some financial security he might not get if he goes to 1 year arbitration route, and IF he can find his groove again in those next 4 years, that is a STEAL of a deal. If he cant find his groove and he just kinda fades away into being a bottom line guy, whatever. 2 mil isnt the WORST deal out there for a bottom 6 guy...
