Conditional re-signs are illegal

Resigning can't be a condition on a pick anymore.

I didn’t know that, thank you.

I fixed it now, to make it if they make the western conference finals.

Hehe quite the overpay by DAL, so I'll take it.

We'll get either a 1st, 2 x 2nds or a 2nd + B prospect for Tanev

You could have had Bemstrom for free a few weeks ago. CBJ accept, you could have him for a 6th or 7th.

It's only a big overpay if they win, but if they win, do they care? If they don't get out of round 2, it's not really an overpay.

The way I read this is:
Round 1 or 2 elimination: 2 x 2nd, 5th, Prospect, Faksa and Hakanpaa
Round 3 elimination: 1st, 2nd, 5th, Prospect, Faksa and Hakanpaa
Finals elimination: 2x 1st, 5th, Prospect, Faksa and Hakanpaa
Win Cup: 2 x 1st, 3rd, Prospect, Faksa and Hakanpaa

yea I couldn’t really think of a decent depth player, the main one is the Tanev trade.

@MwyNyamBabyYoda

Thinking about the Tanev offer a but more, and as a Flames fan I love the possibility of an overpay, but I'm not sure how realistic it is. As the possibility of a massive overpay is there, and you also strip the team of depth.

I'm going to counter with something I think is more realistic. based on your proposal while adding depth.

to Dallas:
- Chris Tanev @ 50% (2,250,000 - UFA '24)
- AJ Greer (762,500 - UFA '24)
- Keven Rooney (1,300,000 - UFA '24)
- Dennis Gilbert (752,500 - UFA '24)
to Calgary:
- Christian Kyrou (878,333 - RFA '26
- Radek Faksa (3,250,000 - UFA '25)
- Joel Hanley (787,500 - UFA '25)
- 1st in 2024
- Cond. 5th in 2025 becomes 3rd if Dallas reaches 2024 WCF

If my math is correct, this would keep Dallas under the cap, as well as give them a couple depth forwards, while we swap depth defensemen giving us one that has an additional year since we're potentially moving so many bodies. I know it's more risk for Dallas if they don't reach the WCF, but significantly less if they win the Cup, which I believe you have a real chance at doing.

Honestly I like your trade too, I was thinking about adding hanafin but I think that’s too much. The stars don’t really need to much more forward depth, I’d gladly have Aj Greer as a 13th forward. But otherwise, Blumel and Karlstrom have both played nhl games and Stankoven and Bourque could easily slot into the lineup if injuries happen. If that makes sense. The only thing I’d do is swap kyrou out for damani or blumel, the stars have no real defensive prospects other than Bichsel and Kyrou. They have a lot of forward prospect though. I’m also not a flames fan so I don’t know what they’d want for the future.

I mostly picked Kyrou because he was a step below the big prospects, but better than Blumel/Damiani... that said I wouldn't be upset over Damiani

Hanifin would definitely cost more, I'd guess probably a 1st and Bourque, or a 1st, Bichsel and another prospect/pick
