<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Beetlejuice</b></div><div>I think Crow will wait awhile to sign with anyone, I feel like him and his agent need to discuss his health and his future in the NHL. Right now its 50/50 if he retires or play.
I think Saad shouldn't be traded unless at the TDL, I think him on the 3rd line with Suter or Kurashev is a need. It worked well with Kahun and Kubalik. So my opinion Strome is the most likely in the foward group to be traded</div></div>
The only reason I'm trading Saad is because he's at 6m. Losing that 6m contract gives us a lot of room to manipulate and move players before the season starts and bring in a better roster overall. Definitely agree though you could use another winger.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ChiHawk</b></div><div>Wild aren't looking for a top line winger let alone a rental so that trade would never go through.
As most of us agree, Crow is not worth $5M....at that price let him walk and grab Markstrom who still has 3 to 5 good years in him
Shaw on the top line is a nightmare....a bad one. No way</div></div>
As far as Saad goes, I'd have to disagree. They're currently running Kunin as a winger, and will need to replace Galchenyuk next season. They're looking to compete soon with a new goalie and a Kaprizov. A 45-50pt, 2 way winger would be great for them for a lower return, e.g. a 15-25th overall 1st rounder.
Markstrom I doubt you can grab at 5m. He's said he'd prefer Vancouver, and they can also make room for that salary. Not that I dislike the idea of Markstrom, I just don't see it happening is all.
As far as Shaw goes, why do you say that? When he was on MTL he helped them nearly lead the league in corsi and 5v5 efficiency. Yeah he was injured this year, but Shaw can slot in anywhere top 6, that was the best part of him! Genuinely curious on this one.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ChiHawk</b></div><div>Haula is brutal plus we have Suter, Nylander, Kurashev, Highmore, Hagel all who will be fighting for a bottom 6 role.
Caggs on the top line is a joke and a bad one. That top line without Saad goes to crap unless he's replaced.
If Crow costs $5M, which I highly doubt going on 36 at the start of next season, we should walk away. $4.5M maybe, $4M yes.
Minor adjustment, but Kampf is the 4C not Carps; Kampf is better at faceoffs and faster as a two way guy which is why he plays C.
I'd keep Maatta over De Haan give his cheaper contract, buyout option and he's younger (just turned 26) so has upside. De Haan is as good as he is going to get, is slower, and not great in the faster transition game or defensive man game the Hawks play</div></div>
Suter no lie I completely forgot about, so yes him for sure. Haula is a 40-50pt player when healthy according to this numbers, so I'm going to disagree on that one.
As far as Crow goes, I disagree a 5m is a walkaway. Man is a consistent starter, put up a .917,.929,.909 in his last 3 seasons, despite the abysmal defense that is the Hawks. If he's still feeling up to talking the starting role and mentoring Delia, he is very much worth 5m on a 2 year contract, especially when a goalie like Holtby is going to ask and likely get 6m.
As far as Caggs goes, this year when the top line ran Toews, Cagguila, Kubalik they produced 10 EV points. Toews, Saad, Kubalik produced 9 EV points. Even Strength, they were very close in total time together. <a href="https://frozenpool.dobbersports.com/frozenpool_linecombo.php?select=F&forward=CHI%3A325%3AJONATHAN%3ATOEWS&games=2019-2020%3AR%3A99&period=ALL&situation=EV" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://frozenpool.dobbersports.com/frozenpool_linecombo.php?select=F&forward=CHI%3A325%3AJONATHAN%3ATOEWS&games=2019-2020%3AR%3A99&period=ALL&situation=EV</a>. It's not ideal, but dropping Saad gives us money to replace him, Caggs offers a reasonable replacement, and if you chose not to sign Galchenyuk(who you don't need with Suter) you have more money to allocate elsewhere.
Kampf and Carpenter very fair. They can definitely switch.
As far as Maatta or DeHaan, yes Maatta is younger and has more upside, but that's why we're focusing on a buyout here. DeHaan is not quite as easy to buy out, and defensively he's much more solid than Maatta is. Not that I forgot how good Maatta looked this playoffs, but lets not forget how bad he looked during the regular season.
Edit: Maybe find a 4th rounder for Maatta in a trade?

My only question is if Khudobin doesn't ask more. Besides that I really like these moves. Retool on the D with OEL definitely offers a better system and moving Kuzy for Domi honestly is pretty damn good with Domi showing he can hit 70 points in the appropriate system. I see no reason that system can't be with Ovi.

Bring OEL Home 2 Electric Boogaloo
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>justaBoss</b></div><div>Hard to say. These kind of players pretty much never get traded, because teams are not in favor of giving in with their top prospects. If Zegras becomes the franchise center of ANA as they've projected keeping him is just the wiser option.
Legit the best option via trade is probably a high end prospect that plays for a contending team already, because the team is likely more in favor to use that said player as a trade chip in order to strengthen their team further for their current run. Cody Glass or Alex Newhook are examples of such players. But it doesn't mean they'd get any cheaper...their team's might just be tad more in favor for moving the asset over a rebuilding team.</div></div>
Agreed on Glass and Newhook and Krebs etc. The issue though is they just don't need defensive depth the same way Anaheim does, which is why they were targeted. I can't think of a package for Newhook or Krebs that works because both Colorado and Vegas are loaded at D and don't need a true PP QB, or a high tier defensive prospect the same way a rebuilding team does.

He's the key piece for their rebuild and absolutely invaluable for the organisation. They don't need the pieces offered here. Your target player and team is wrong, even if there is value in the package to a nice extent.
ARI trade is still interesting.
I don't think CBJ needs any more wingers. They already have a surplus of them. Retain half of his salary and dump him to SJ who needs wingers for a 5th.
Gustafsson deal is lacking due to it's term. Same goes for Fast as well. Make them one year deals.</div></div>

Bring OEL HOME
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>justaBoss</b></div><div>I can absolutely say that the ANA trade doesn't have value, and that is because ANA is in no need for players that they'd need to contend now. They're a rebuilding team and Zegras is the biggest and most important part of this rebuild. Orlov is a valuable asset to a team that is ready to contend now. Also the expansion draft brings an issue as well, since acquiring Orlov would mean that they'd be forced to move Manson because otherwise Seattle would take him for free. Hagelin brings pretty much nothing to their table that they don't have, they're stacked with bottom-6 wingers already. Alexeyev is the only interesting piece for them considering the status the team is currently in, but they absolutely wouldn't move Zegras for him.
As for the COL trade, it's not about the team, it's about the player. Panik is overpaid and his current contract runs way too long. Under the tight cap era no one is interested to take that contract in. Every single team in this league would have better use for that $3M of cap space over taking another bottom-6 forward to their team - unless they get compensated for it. Panik himself will get you absolutely nothing.
Barrie's likely to sign a one-year bridge. He's not signing a long-term contract with a salary cut after scoring 98 points in last two seasons combined, which is a respectable amount for a defenseman.
If he isn't getting a bigger, let's say $6,5-8M contract now due to covid effects, he'll likely take a one-year 5x1 bridge deal to prove that he's still an useful player.
As for the other signings - Krug absolutely won't take a 4 year deal. He'd be what, 34 when that deal expires at which point he's not going to get a big contract anymore. Taking that short of a deal is just a wasted opportunity and financially not beneficial for the guy. He'll get a 7,5x6 or 7x7 deal somewhere else. His market value is pretty high after yet another successful season.
The Gustafsson contract has probably the right amount of money, but the term is ridiculous. The guy is a 28-year old TOP4 UFA D-man heading to free agency after a poor campaign, just like Barrie. I don't see the point for him to sign for so low when he could easily make a better money after taking a one-year deal to prove himself.
The Namestnikov deal is also a bit cheap in terms of money, but the term is quite realistic.</div></div>

Ducks trade is a hard sell but you can't say the value isn't there. You have Orlov who's a #2 dman, Alexyev who's projected to be a #2 dman and is only 20, and an immediate impact forward.
Colorado trade can go almost anywhere, they just have the cap.
The only controversial signing to me is Barrie but he's looked pretty bad recently and with the cap locked for a few years I could see him going for it. If not Barrie though, there are other pieces.

Georgiev may be cheaper for sure, but Elvis gives us the cap space we need. The reason I wanted to deal away Strome/Saad was because of the cap relief! The Jackets have Vehviläinen and Kivlenieks in their prospect system for goalies, both who they believe can be starters, especially Vehviläinen. I figure it's easier for them to replace their backup/1B than NY as well. We need the cap room cleared to keep a competitive bottom 6. If we keep Saad not Strome, we can throw Saad on the first line, drop Caggs to the 3rd, move Chucky to C and let him play C to Suter and Cagguila, or rotate him with Kampf, and on the 4th line we can roll Carpenter with Kampf, etc. and bring Highmore up.

I'm not saying that they both can't start. Hell I'd trade for him AS a starter. But in terms of trade value, even assuming Korpisalo was a starter this year, he still posted a below league average s%. If you look at his #s through his career he only has a single season as a backup where he posted above average #s. Based on goaltending trade history, e.g. prime Luongo going for a few ehh players, Bishop not even a year off a vezina finalist was shipped off for less than this trade, you're far overvaluing goalies.

With all due respect while Elvis I can understand the skepticism, but Korpisalo has never taken a starters load, his most recent season was below league average in terms of goaltending, and his contract isn't anything exceptionally low at 3m per year. He's having a great playoff - but I think that this trade would easily be fair value for Korpisalo.

Goalie trade values are notoriously low. Columbus has another goalie who can step in, whether the trade is for Elvis or Korpi. Retaining salary for a 4.5m top 6 forward along with a 2nd and third round pick seems a fair trade, especially if you throw in Korpi instead of Elvis.

Like said, I would do Korpi too, just would remove one of the picks. I agree that Elvis does have a higher upside, but with limited experience in the league, Saad at 4.5m, a 2nd and a 3rd rounder is a fair trade. I wouldn't have an issue bridge dealing Strome for a few years and trading him instead of Saad with picks for Elvis. The roster can replace the loss of Strome, and Strome has a much much higher upside as a center.
