Thread: Billys Plan
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TanSor</b></div><div>That's the key to making posts here. Most AGM threads fail to address other teams needs, it's always nice to see those that do.

These seem pretty realistic, the Vegas trade I thought was a huge overpayment at first but when you consider historic trades that mirror this (Marleau trade specifically), that's about what it costs to move a big contract. As others have mentioned that's quite a lot to move up just 3 spots, something like 9 and 29 for 6 and 36 sounds close... Maybe a sweetener would be in order or we take a prospect instead of their 2nd. Right idea IMO, I really want Rossi. Otherwise maybe you even move up to 5 with Ottawa and get him or Perfetti depending on who Detroit takes.</div></div>

Following the Sens Athletic reporter and she suggests they may be leaning Rossi at 5 and Perfetti seems like a lock in Detroit. But honestly, 4 picks in the top 40 would be amazing for the org and its possible to use those to move into the top 20 and have 3 picks if Judd really likes a guy there. I would not be upset to get Sanderson at 9 and grab Mercer/Zary through a trade up.

I think what both of these trades and the trades that have happened show is how valuable actual salary is. Dubs with 50% retention is only a million in cash, and its still hard to believe that package would even warrant a 2nd but it makes sense in the current environment. Regarding Fleury, the market was set at a 2nd for about 4 mil for a year in the Staal deal so taking the full deal for 2 years is definitely worth a 1st.
