Thread: 20-21 feeling optimistic
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dca919</b></div><div>Trouba's agent would be limiting his value and thus his salary if he were to only negotiate with the few teams that can afford the Jets ask instead of the whole league for nothing other than salary. Not to mention the league salary cap going up in 20-21 means more teams have cap space (bad contracts expire means a few more, etc, etc). Do you really think a guy whose had so many issues with Jets management is suddenly going to do them a huge favor on his way out the door and limit his value? That's naive.

Any team can throw a 1 year offer sheet that at $6,341,151 that will make the Jets match or only get a 1st and 3rd for him. San Jose can do it if they lose Karlsson and be really only giving up a low 1st and 3rd. That would be a healthy raise for Trouba next year anyways.</div></div>

What's your point? The notion that Trouba is going to sit and wait for DET to pay him is still naive. WPG can trade him, Trouba can't reject a trade. DET isn't the only team Trouba wants to play for. Fact is DET should be somewhat aggressive if they want him.

Thread: Big Draft Day Trades
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dca919</b></div><div>Mike Green with a full NTC until Feb 2020 vetoes the deal--which is a complete overpay for a 1 year rental on Trouba. Trouba has absolutely no reason to complete a sign-and-trade deal. That kind of deal limits his market (and thus his salary) to only teams that can afford the Jets high ask price. In 13 months his market becomes the whole NHL as an UFA and he has the benefit of knowing the 2020-21 salary cap increase and where the CBA is at so he can structure the contract to avoid any stoppage.

The draft day move up is even worse in terms of over-payment. Using an old NHL value chart the #4 pick is worth 783 while the #6 (702) and the #54 (182) are worth 884. 884 &gt; 783 so the picks alone should entice Colorado to swap picks.</div></div>

lol I'll give you the Trouba/Green argument but that value chart nonsense is good. Well done.
