Thread: Looking to fill 1RW and 1RD

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GiggywithGibby</b></div><div>Unavailable is unavailable, not saying some of his absences weren't worthy of taking, but the overall amount of man games missed is staggering. Yeah, he could be worth more if he can manage to play a season with 75% + attendance AND perform up to his abilities. Or he could have another 50 game or less season, at which point you would potentially have to pay to unload his contract in order to move him, or buy him out. His overall value has been trending down for years, i don't think he's turning it around in Columbus with all the upheaval.

And that's not begging to discuss whether the new GM wants him there or not, and whether he wants to be there under the new coach/GM as they go through a regime change.</div></div>

I think if you modified the conditions a little this could be an option.
i.e.
* Top 10 protected. If Laine plays less than 82 regular season games over the next two seasons, pick becomes ANAs highest 26 2nd and 27 2nd
If Laine plays less than 54 regular season games over the next two seasons, pick becomes ANAs highest 2nd in 2026 and a 3rd in 2027.

Mitigates the risk for Anaheim and provides a decent return for Columbus even if Laine misses time.

Thread: Another Dach Newhook Candidate

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BoomerTheHero</b></div><div>another delusional KJ trade from a MTL fan. Do y'all never get tired of embarrassing yourselves?</div></div>

In this case the OP is a delusional Pens fan, so lets not place the blame on the Habs fan base for this one even though there have been plenty of others that were.

Thread: Blue jackets

Welcome to Capfriendly. Looks like this is your first ACGM and you have extremely over-valued some of the Jackets and tried to trade Roslovic after I think he had been traded to NYR.

If the goal was to see what the team might look like next year, then you can change the year for the team you are creating and increase the cap etc.
Try to be somewhat realistic or add some comments in the description that make it obvious that it is not intended as a a serious trade offer.
Have fun!

Thread: Offseason

Since the OP is a Bolts fan, the Jackets counter with Provorov and Roslovic for Brayden Point

Thread: Goalie defense options

The equivalent trade for the Jackets would be more like Elvis and Provorov, not Elvis and Jiricek.

Thread: Calgary

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CaseyFlyman</b></div><div>Columbus takes that and runs.</div></div>

I don't think the Jackets do that. Neither Vladar or Tarasov are viable options as starting goalies next year.
Elvis needs to get over himself and with Jarmo gone he might not be so butt hurt.

Not sure why you have a dig at the Jackets when the OP appears to be a Bruins fan and in this ACGM it would be the Avs making a bad trade not the Jackets...

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Cub19</b></div><div>Columbus trade is a joke.

The Jackets would decline that trade. Danforth is a useful player and has already been extended for next year.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JaredOfLondon</b></div><div>Rumours according to who?</div></div>

Supposedly discussed on a radio show and then regurgitated by every rumor site/podcast.

I would say the odds of Boone being traded to the Leafs are about the same as Mathews being traded to CBJ.

Thread: Tre adds more snot at the deadline

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Brad_Treliving</b></div><div>I could care less what CBJ fans have to think. I'm just going off the reports that the CBJ are willing to listen in on every player</div></div>

The source of that was a recent report by the Ottawa Sun’s Bruce Garrioch in which a league executive told him the Columbus Blue Jackets “are willing to discuss just about anybody.”
That isn't a direct quote from Jarmo or anyone directly associated with the Jackets and "just about anybody" means that there are definitely some players that are not up for discussion.

Thread: Is this A Realistic Jack Campbell Trade

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Boltsradynasty</b></div><div>He absolutely can be traded Edmonton would have to keep him in the NHL. He'd only have to be offered back if Edmonton tried to send him down. See Mikey Eyssimont last season. San Jose Claimed him then traded him to TB at the TDL.</div></div>

I think the difference is that Eyssimont had already cleared waivers earlier in the year. Martin has not cleared waivers this year and I think would have to before we could trade him.

Thread: Imagine Jarmo Fired

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>tjk</b></div><div>Many CBJ fans have told me that a deal with EDM doesn't make sense. Glad to see another perspective. Don't mind this move but Oil won't move their 24 1st. I think they'd rather move 25 1st and another asset than the 24 one. So in this trade add the 25 1st instead and maybe a 3rd or mid-level prospect.</div></div>

You do realize that Prime Jimbo is a Canucks fan, not a Jackets fan right?
Jacket fans are somewhat evenly split between sell Elvis while you can and keep him until we have a better option, but even the ones who think we should sell think it will cost a lot more than this offer.

Thread: Campbell

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TMLBRIAN</b></div><div>I agree with this... So instead of making a reasonable trade, you decided to get revenge. I see.</div></div>

Up to a point. The Jackets don't have a viable replacement for Elvis and want to compete next year. They are not in the business of taking on cap dumps and buying out players from other teams. So unless they think Campbell can still be somewhat effective as a backup goalie I just don't see this happening. And if they thought he could be a backup, then they would still want to keep Elvis and would need retention on Campbell and compensation for taking him on as a more expensive backup.

Thread: Campbell

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TMLBRIAN</b></div><div>If Edmonton is dropping 2 first round picks to unload campbell it's for his full contract. Retaining 2.5m on Campbell makes ZERO sense for them.</div></div>

Yeah, kind of like how most of the proposed Campbell/Elvis trades make no sense for the Blue Jackets...

Thread: Campbell

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GreatWhiteNorth</b></div><div>The salary retention doesn’t make sense in any Campbell deal. It’s much cheaper to buy him out in the off-season rather than commit to salary retention. If the Oilers move their 1st round pick to relieve Campbell’s contract, they’re won’t be much of any at all retention</div></div>

This is indeed the point. I really don't think an Elvis/Campbell trade makes sense for the Blue Jackets, so it is more likely that the Oilers just buy out Campbell this off season.

It is over 8 million since it is basically 2.5 million for 3.5 years.
Probably cheaper for the Oilers to just buy him out next year...

Thread: Leading up to the deadline

I like these trades and could see some of these happening. I think Calgary may actually prefer Bean to Boqvist based on some of the proposed Lindholm trades and I think it might make more sense for the Jackets also since I don't see a fit for Bean next year if we expect Mateychuk (or maybe Svozil) to make the team.

Thread: Merzlikins Ferraro Perry

Jackets easily decline. I actually think there is a better chance that the Oilers are scouting Spencer Martin as an upgrade over Pickard than there is for an Elvis/Campbell trade.

Thread: Columbus

The Jackets don't do either of these trades or sign Nylander or Hanifin.
LD is not a position of need and I would also say the odds of Nylander and Hanifin signing in Columbus are probably low.
The Jackets would be better of spending the money on Lindhom or another option at 1C than using that money for Nylander and Hanifin.
