Thread: What are people expecting for the playoff roster

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Nipps_4</b></div><div>Scott has been recovering from injury all year, he won’t get a look.

Woll posted a .880% he shouldn’t get a look.

Johnsson shouldn’t be cleared to skate/hockey related activities until mid - August.

Mikheyev probably will be eased in, dude has to learn how to use that hand again.

Robertson will defiantly given every opportunity to succeed/fail. His performance, & management’s confidence in his ability to file a role next season, is a key factor in the roster construction for next year & probably the year after.</div></div>

I thought I read somewhere that Johnsson was ready. If not my mistake

I don't know expect to see any goalie besides Campbell or Andersen unless injuries

Ceci over Sandin eh?

I don't see how any of those Marlies or Gauthier/Malgin should be in over Engvall. He should have that 4th line w spot if he doesn't have the third

Thread: Big 3 Way Shakeup

So in the end Gaudreau, Monahan, Hanifin, and a first for Eichel?

Interesting if nothing else. Trading for superstar franchise players will require overpaying so it's probably "fair" from that point of view.

But I think this makes the team worse. Eichel is only going to play 22 minutes or so a night. I'm not convinced that Eichel plus whomever is that much better than Monahan plus Gaudreau. For that upgrade (and cap increase) your also giving up a first and solid number 2 d man.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bf3351</b></div><div>I don't know, it was especially weird how they picked the best goalie in the draft before signing him.

About Domi, I get that, but he's had 1 70 point season. The rest prior to that were not remotely close to it and the one after. So I think a 1st and 2nd is fair, maybe adding a better prospect would be good.</div></div>

"A first" can have a lot of different values depending on more about it.

The first in question is greater than 1 year away (great limits the value) from a team trying to compete. That's not nearly as much value as it could be.

Your trading an open and shut 2c and guy who's trying to prove he can be a 1c

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>nilees24</b></div><div>To be fair, by 2024 the salary cap for the NHL could be north of $88.5 mill .... which would not be as impactful for Price's contract (as a % of the cap).

Why do you expect the cap to go up when they are going to lose all of their gate revenue for at least the rest of 2020 then whenever that ends will be trying to get money from fans who are broke from the pandemic?

Thread: Its not that hard people

This required a compliance buyout and someone taking Bozak (he won't be easy to trade in a flat cap. Cap room will be at a huge premium. He's a third line C making 5 mil)

So they buy out Matheson who is a good player. Trade very little for Domi and then too much for Ghost? More odd than anything else

I figured the CBO was more expensive of Ladd so they get the other team (Leafs) to do it and they do boychuck.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DirtyDangle</b></div><div>Players that put up 20-25 points over a full season routinely get around $2m. Mikheyev plays similar ice time and has similar rate of production as Johnsson and Kapanen and they both make $3m+.

2 million for 20-25 points is a terrible idea. 20-25 points is replacement level and unless elite at something else should be under 900k

I really don't think think Leafs are going to get Mikheyev for $1.5m. He was a good player in the KHL and then put up 23 points in 39 games.</div></div>

I only did that as I think the khl is likely to be as broke as the nhl

Keep Watson away

Thread: napkin math

Honestly I think this is overly generous. I suspect they may keep the cap the same, but ridiculously increase escrow. But this is a gate driven league. They lost a good chunk of the NHL season this year. Next year may have no gate revenue.

People are broke with minimal discretionary income. I could see revenues down 40+%. Try like 50 million.

But they could still have an 81 million cap or whatever and then just take escrow of 40%

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MitchMarnerElite </b></div><div>Here we go again & that is a huge contract for Dermott.</div></div>

Its a gamble. Usually I would sign him 2.85 for 2, but almost all of the best contracts in the league are guys signed for about 4 million who then took the next step.

Worst case scenario he is a number 5 defenseman making 3.5 million. Best case scenario he is a #2-3 defenseman (usually paid 5.5-6.6) making 3.5 million.

Thread: Players who aged or are aging like fine wine

Different guys in this list are very different.

There are guys who are still competent in their late 30s (Spezza), guys who went from stud to top 6er in their mid 30s (Getzlaf and Staal) and guys who maintained their stud-status into their mid 30s (Bergeron, Malkin, Suter, etc)

Also you missed 2 of three 3 active players who stayed great at nearly 40 or above (you got Chara but missed Jumbo Joe and Marleau)

No arguments on one of the best.

But honestly Letang is a step below the rest.

Those other guys are all legends. Letang is just one of the best now.
