Thread: Nylander out
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>exo2769</b></div><div>Arbitration window, sure. Hawks have Kurashev still out there too so the hawks can still buy him out as well. I guess it's more so just the value of what it would take to get it done. Hawks management has shown (through action...not just us on capfriendly) they'll accept a 2nd straight up for $2,333,333 in expense over 2 years. Murray as a buyout would be ~$4M over 2 years. I know TOR doesn't have a 2nd to send...so yes it'll be the 1st, BUT I doubt it's a 2nd rounder going back. more likely a late 3rd.</div></div>

The cost of buyout would be $687,500 first year and $2mil second year. Ottawa eats a third of that in addition since they are retaining 25%. However, since Ottawa already has 3 contracts being bought out this year is that why you say they aren't able to buy him out? I haven't seen that before and not sure what the rule is.

Thread: Revisiting past ideas
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GiggywithGibby</b></div><div>He's right shot and a defensive specialist, it was an off the wall idea from way back. Would it really be worse than another season of Shattenkirk?



LaCombe is the only one who is maybe ready, Helleson and the others are going to need more time to develop in the AHL.

Right side top 4 D is a long term need, we have no problems signing long term there. Drysdale and Fowler historically have gotten completely caved in, we need a defensively responsible partner to clear the crease out on that pairing.

Mints has the size, but his defensive abilities have been noted as suspect for a while now, he needs a lot of work in his own zone. I think we're going to need a defensive partner for Drysdale long term, and I'm not sure how fast Honda will be ready.</div></div>

I agree that they aren't ready right now, but you've filled 4/6 starting spots for the next 5 years (assuming fowler and drysdale are extended). Meanwhile we have Mintyukov, LaCombe, Zellweger, Helleson, Luneau, Hinds, and others. Not saying that we don't need the guys right now, but it doesn't seem like the right move to not leave any space open in the future.
