What would you be comfortable giving up to send Fleury to Chicago in exchange for Strome?

Thread: One Last Ride Eichel plus depth FAs

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Aussie_Blackhawk</b></div><div>Im sorry, but these trades are really poorly executed. All 3 have very bad effects for CHI.</div></div>

I mean, to get a top center in the league (who is 24 years old), you're going to have to give up something of value. The whole idea here is to give Kane and Toews one last shot at contention before their deals expire in two seasons.

With that angle in mind, what would you change? Or are you firmly in the camp of building through the draft / acquiring younger players?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>kedogs00</b></div><div>i would do that as a Sabres fan, however, I dont expect Chicago to trade bot Dach and Kubalik.</div></div>

Would you do it for this year's first (11th overall), Dach, and a non-roster prospect (Reichel, etc)? The whole point of doing this would be to go all in until Toews and Kane are done and Kubalik is finally the winger Toews has needed

Thread: Using Cap Space

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Foppa21</b></div><div>Avs would likely prefer to lose Graves over Nichushkin. If we were talking about a prospect instead of Nichuskin, then yeah, there's probably a match there</div></div>

Doesn't have to be Nichuskin. Was just looking for cap relief for Colorado since Makar and Landeskog both need new deals. The central idea is to get rid of EJ for cap and expansion draft purposes, especially given what I see below.

Thread: Leafs Cap Flexibility

Vinnie would be a good hard nosed young guy to add to the Leafs, for sure. Not sure Wenneberg is the answer. You will need and answer to Tampa and Anthony Cirelli next season. I am not sure who would realistically be available, but you need a Philip Danault-type there at 3C

Thread: Marner to Nashville

1. Nashville might do that trade for one of Forsberg or Ekholm, but not both.
2. Even if they did, there's no way Toronto could afford both of them after one season.

If Stan had managed to trade Saad for Toews 2 full days before the Islanders traded Toews to Colorado, he would be the emperor of time.

Thread: Bare minimum

There's a hard limit on how many players you can retain salary on (remember Olli Maatta and Brandon Saad?). Chicago is hopefully keeping its power dry to retain on Zadarov / other players they want to trade.

Thread: Stay the Course

I mean if you are selling off serviceable players like that you should at least retain / take back some salary to get a little better deal.

Thread: Buffalo Sabres signed Taylor Hall (1 Year / $8,000,000 AAV)

Makes sense in that he could pad his stats playing with Eichel to get a juicier long-term contract.

But on the other hand, if he breaks his leg in April then he could find himself not able to play anywhere in the following season.

Saad had a modified NTC didn't he? Maybe this was really the best they could get from whatever teams he approved a trade to.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryminister_27</b></div><div>That's a laughable offer from Vegas. Glass or Krebs won't be moved.</div></div>

Steep price, that's for sure. But that takes Fleury off the books cleanly. Going to be very difficult to get rid of him in a flat cap world, if the rumor is that Vegas wants Petro.

Too much for Strome. Play hardball with him to get him to 2.5 mill max. Otherwise explore a trade for him. Rangers have an appetite for center depth, could be an interesting trade there for Georgiev.

Wow waited 2 whole days before he rights with Colorado expired. He was the 2016 pick right after Debrincat. How many other "draft buddies" are there on a team? I know Boston picked like 3 in a row in the first round in 2015

You could probably pull off a bigger trade with Edmonton if you add Kerfoot, since they need depth in a bad way.

I don't see a world where you can pry Hamilton from Carolina without sending back one of the "big 4", especially with retention.

Yeah this is mostly a worst case scenario. I like Maatta and Smith but if Seabrook and Shaw are effectively done, but still on the books, it will present problems. I am really sick of trading young players away to solve cap problems, so this was my alternative.
