Thread: Sharks sell tiers
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ItsBreach</b></div><div>i think labanc and hoffman have more value than you think. sj won't be blown away by an offer, but hoffman at 50% (2250000) might fetch a 3rd/4th. he's been ok this year and could provide some offense to a struggling bottom 6 on a playoff team. labanc might be a bit harder, but since he's on an expiring deal, you take what you can get. he's another case of 50% (2362500) might get sj a 5th or 6th rounder, which would only be beneficial to the sharks</div></div>

San Jose only has one retention slot available, so using it on a deal that brings back a 5th or 6th would be a waste. Contenders with tight cap situations will pay a premium to fit a player in before playoffs, and it doesn't even have to be one of the Sharks trade candidates, we could be the third team on other trades too. A player like Hoffman might only be tradeable with retention, but I'm betting that isn't going to be the best return for using that last slot.

Thread: New York Rangers 2022-23 - Post Draft 1
Nemeth is an afterthought. The team you propose looks similar to mine. Copp: $5.5M is a minimum. The longer he is out there, the more likely he will cost $6M. Copp at $6M is my outside limit. Kakko: $2.25M is more likely the offer to Kappo. Add $750K to your free cap space. It becomes a wash if Andrew costs $6M. Kravtsov and Jones: For me the verdict is not positive until they can show they can play D. If Kravtsov is a flop, you can move Blais to #3RW and bring Will Cuylle up for a look at #3LW. (Brennan Othmann is a possibility as well). If I'm NYR GM, I would have Lundqvist and Jones compete for the #3LD slot. Finally, take a kook at Charlie Lindgren as #2G. You should be able to sign him at $800K, perhaps a tad higher, creating some additional free CAP SPACE. If Charlie is anything like his younger brother, he should fit right into an already tight NYR locker room. We are more of less in the same place.
