Canucks pass easily. Niemela and a 1st doesn’t get it done on its own, then you’re also sending us a cap dump

Canucks would also give Hronek that contract rather than trading him

Habs pass

I personally view Kampf as having slight positive value. 3rd to 5th round pick. Neutral at worst. I don't see him as being a cap dump. Very serviceable bottom 6, defensive C. But fair enough if you think this offer is not enough.

I don’t understand why you wouldn’t think better strategy would be to sign Roy + another FA RHD (say DeMelo @ $4.25M) & save $3M + keep our picks & promising prospect.
Hronek is a good player, but not that good

To be fair - I make a lot of AGMS and do similar to what you suggested often. Just wanted to play around with a Roy + Hronek option. This is the best dgroup we may have ever had. Our d group needed more physicality and scoring all year. They added physicality at the deadline but not scoring. This keeps the defensiveness and physicality and size but adds more scoring. Hronek would be a great add to help boost the offense from our D, which we could benefit from.

2.4M for 3 more seasons for a 4C who provides little to no offense and who has been bad defensively this year. He’s a cap dump. If the Canucks want a 4C for that cap hit they can re-sign Blueger. I’d also rather use Aman as 4C and save cap

It probably takes a 1st + Liljegren + a lesser piece for the Canucks to consider moving Hronek to Toronto

Kampf plays 13-14 minutes a game. He plays more than a 4C. So he is not just a regular 4C. He averages about the same ice time as Domi.

1st + Lily + Kampf would be my offer.

Kampf adds negative value to the deal for the Canucks. It would need to be a different piece
