Thread: (NSH/COL) - Johansen for Galchenyuk
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sensonfire</b></div><div>I disagree.


1. Nashville would have had 2.666 million in dead cap from buying out RoJo versus 4 million from retaining his salary.


2. Nashville gave the decision-making power over buying out RoJo to Colorado.


3. I highly doubt Colorado will decide to buy out RoJo.</div></div>

Nashville wont be a contender in the next 2 years. Years 3-4 is what they are thinking to use this new cap flexibility. Its a rebuild move, cost cutting move. There is no loss here. Its a sunk cost on Ryjo.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sensonfire</b></div><div>1. And Nashville just gave a player from their core group to a division rival for free.


2. A fair deal for RoJo with 50% retention would be a 2nd round pick, not Galchenyuk's signing rights.</div></div>

Fair and realistic are two different things. Yes, in theory that may be fair but it takes another team to offer that! Its clear the market has no takers right now for salary beyond this season unless at a massive discount.
