all are, and that you think other people's players have no value aka CBJ trade above.
Do yourself a favor, instead of getting all bent out of shape about it, be honest with yourself and maybe one day you'll make a decent trade on here.</div></div>

Lol just angry eh? Liljegren is a 25 year old who played 20 minutes a night down the stretch for a playoff team. He's an RFA as well but he's a cap dump. Why? The crest on his jersey. Jarnkrok? Swiss army knife can play anywhere and find success at 2.1 million and scores 30-40 points a year. Cap dump.

I do admit Kampf at his cap hit is excessive but he's a valuable player. Extremely good defensively, a good penalty killers and works hard every shift. He's likely lower value wise in a trade but he isn't without value, I absolutely bet multiple teams would want him for cheap. He's a very good 4c

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HShockey</b></div><div>Jarnkrok isn't a cap dump, Kampf you could argue. The Leafs could definetly get a 2nd/3rd for a versatile, 10-15 goal scorer at 2.1. Kampf doesn't have much value, but the Pens need a 4C and Dubas loves his old players</div></div>

Jarnkrok isn't a cap dump, Kampf is but he's not an expensive one to move. He just doesn't bring enough to a team to warrant the cap hit (unlike Jarnkrok), and the only spot he might be useful in at this point is 4C. Jarnkrok probably fetches a 3rd or 4th from a contender (a la Roslovic last TDL), and Kampf probably costs a 6th or 7th to dump.

And FWIW, Provorov half-retained is probably worth a late 1st/early 2nd. He's a well-rounded, reliable 2nd-pair D-man who's just not a great fit in Columbus and not part of the future plans. If that's the basis for the deal, I'd prefer Provorov and a 4th (maybe a 3rd if the market is light) for the TOR 1st, which <em>should </em>be very late.

Thread: Hronek for Reilly blockbuster
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryminister_92</b></div><div>Not a chance.

Rielly has shown absolutely no signs of falling off and with the cap only increasing that contract looks better and better every season.

Hronek is definitely not better. He’s carried by Hughes. When Hronek was in Detroit, he was atrocious defensively - now that he plays with a guy that has the puck more then anyone in hockey his defensive stats look better because he doesn’t have to defend as much. That doesn’t mean that he’s all of a sudden good defensively.

Rielly makes players he plays with better. Look at all the partners he’s played with.. Hainsey, Brodie, Lyubushkin, Schenn… none of those guys were top 4 guys but Rielly made them a fit because he elevates his play to make his teammates better. Hell he got Luke Schenn a near $3M contract when the entire league didn’t wanna give him much more than league minimum. That’s something you don’t see in stats.

Rielly &gt;&gt; Hronek.

Hronek’s actually been worse defensively this season, but throughout his career he’s been better than Rielly who’s always been atrocious in his own zone

RHD are more valuable than LHD

Hronek is 4 years younger and will likely sign for a similar amount to why Rielly is making right now, give or take 500k either side (7-8M range)

Hronek has more total points and only 6 less primary points than Rielly at 5v5. If he was the PP QB like Rielly is he’d have even more points than he currently has

Given that Hronek is younger, plays the more valuable side, is better defensively, and is similar offensively, he’s worth more than Rielly
