Thread: Nashville with Weber recapture penalty next year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>F50marco</b></div><div>They didn't stop Luongo's.... them stopping it now wouldn't be fair to Vancouver who had to deal with it. The NHL modified the recapture last year to amend the crazy 24M cap hit thing and could have fixed it then and there but didn't. I think they did precisely what they did because last year Weber had rumors of season ending injury and who knows what after. They covered their tracks for Nashville last year. Anything else after that NSH will most likely have to deal with on its own. Its not crippling, Just sucks for them. The 24M thing literally would destroy them.</div></div>

The recapture is only if he retires, which I don't think he would because he knows it will affect both NSH and MTL cap situation. Unlike the Luongo saga, Weber has a multitude of injuries that can keep him on LTIR.

Thread: Tom Wilson
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Devil1122</b></div><div>Butcher was great early in his career but has slowly dipped in production. Ty Smith took his role as the Devils 1LD. This year he was scratched for half of the season, not because he was bad, but the Devils had way too many offensive defensemen. The Devils needed more defensive defensemen. Once we traded Kulikov at the deadline, Butcher came back into the lineup and looked solid. He looked fantastic once Smith got injured and he became the 1LD quarterbacking the power play. But with Ty Smith as our 1LD and having a bunch of LD prospects, Butcher isn't needed and will likely be moved. In my opinion, Butcher can be a top 4 dman on a team that needs an offensive defensemen</div></div>

Is he effective to QB a the first powerplay or a powerplay in general?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Keegan</b></div><div>Yeah, I made sure there was enough cap space in case he doesn't go on LTIR, I just think it's more likely he spends the rest of his career on LTIR rather than be bought out, but I could easily be wrong. And I put Cale at 10 because I think that's the most he gets, but I could easily see him taking a discount. Landeskog I put at 6.5 but I agree, will probably end up being around 7 to 7.5. Saad I think is only gonna stay if he takes around 4, would be fine at 4.5, but more and the avs probably don't keep him. Jost at 2C I like, because I feel there are a lot of other options, and he played really well as the 1C when MacKinnon was out near the end of the season between Landeskog and Rantanen, so I would like to see them try that, and if it doesn't work and Newhook isn't ready Landeskog should easily be able to move over to center imo, he basically plays center in the d-zone, and takes faceoffs. I think it is very Seattle will take Graves because his value, I bet they move him, so I bet his position isn't really a cocern to them, so I doubt they take the older and more expensive Donskoi, but I could be wrong.</div></div>

Do you think there is a chance Landeskog leaves? Or is it almost a guarantee he is going back? Also with Byram coming up do you think the Avs would consider trading Girard?
