Thread: Minny trade framework

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>squashmaple</b></div><div>I wouldn’t be upset if it happened, but I don’t know that it’s the right choice. Also teams don’t trade guys who are rehabbing from major surgery. KJ won’t be traded this summer.</div></div>

That is a good point.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bast</b></div><div>If the Flames could somehow get the CBJs pick for Mangiapane and Markstrom it would be a huge win for the organization.

That said, you could probably use the pick to get one of the BOS goalies.</div></div>

Mangiapane is not worth much. I don’t know why Calgary seems to think he is worth a lot?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>Rossi being a natural center is far more important to the Wild positionally speaking.

Good point.

Thread: Minny trade framework

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CertifiedAverage</b></div><div>Personally, I just don't see how trading Johnson at his lowest value (hopefully) makes sense. I would only include him in a deal for an established star-level player.</div></div>

The Jackets need a C that can help anchor this team. Johnson while he has the higher ceiling, Rossi plays a more important position and can help now.

Thread: Stupid overreaction marner trade for fun

Not for Marner. If this was for Matthews, this is a good framework. But Marner is 1 yr from UFA. He is not guaranteed to sign an extension and even if he did, the Jackets need a C not another winger.

Thread: Dont flame me these were ALL proposed by the Habs writers at the Athletic

That is about the dumbest idea ever. Yeah the Jackets give up a budding young potentially superstar player just to rid themselves of a contract they could just as easily buyout…

And my word, CBJ would accept (though I get this is all just an exercise). Honestly, if anyone wants Elvis for free, he’s yours. I’d be willing to retain for maybe a mid-rounder or something.</div></div>

Slightly disagree. The Jackets are not likely to give up assets to get rid of Elvis. Buyout is the most likely option. No one wants Elvis and I don’t blame them.

Thread: Sabres reconstruction

CBJ reject. Not interested in moving Jenner. The player, FO, and Ownership doesn’t want to move him. So it is safe to say…he is not going anywhere.

Not terrible value but not sure that gets the Jackets to move him.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>littlejerryseinfeld</b></div><div>I agree this is not enough for Jenner, but tuch is ALOT better than Jenner. No comparison</div></div>

Tuch is slightly more valuable but Jenner can play C and is good at FOs. I wouldn’t say “no comparison”.

Thread: Buffalo Sabres 2024-25 Playoff Roster

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Viqsi</b></div><div>The rule of thumb for determining a viable Jenner proposal for Sabres fans is as follows:
Ask yourself "Would this package be acceptable for Alex Tuch?"
If NO: It is not acceptable for Jenner.
If YES: It <strong>might</strong> be acceptable for Jenner, but don't hold your breath.

The reasons why y'all wouldn't want to trade Tuch are largely the same reasons why we don't want to trade Jenner. And when I say "we", I include not just fellow Jackets fans, but also CBJ ownership, the CBJ front office, and Jenner himself - repeatedly, publicly, and explicitly.</div></div>

Beautifully written.

Thread: If The Leafs Lose to Boston

Already drinking early, eh? No but seriously the Jackets trade really doesn’t make any sense. Jarnkrok does nothing for the Jackets and I am pretty sure Gudbranson is fine staying where he is at.

Forum: Armchair-GMApr. 24 at 10:43 a.m.

Thread: getting out

Laine is better than Norris. While both have had a hard time staying healthy, Laine when healthy has the higher ceiling and the shorter contract. Ottawa would need to add.

Marner holds all cards. If he moves it will be on his terms. Tor is screwed until next summer.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Viqsi</b></div><div>Absolutely not a snowball's chance in hell from the Jackets. You've got the picks going the wrong way and even then it's an easy no; the idea behind Provorov being here is that he's a stopgap we'll eventually move on from to make room for developing kids, and instead you have us committing much more cap space and money and more term to someone who's basically the same except he's smaller and has a concerning injury history.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Claesson4Norris</b></div><div>I've got no time for more lazy defensive players on the team.</div></div>

Whoa! Lazy…Laine has actually gotten better defensively while in Columbus. The only reason to trade him is that he possibly wants to move on and he has had injury issues. But when he is healthy he has been decent defensively and pretty effective offensively.

Not sure what you are trying to do here…you are 12 mil over the cap and the team doesn’t make sense.

Thread: Yousketuvastoay MontRoyal

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CaseyFlyman</b></div><div>I actually agree here, but it's splitting hairs. A cap dump requires the dumping team to be up against the cap. With Price on LTIR, Montreal is still $10+M away from that. Ex: Kampf has more value than Dvorak, but because Toronto is way up against the cap, Kampf is a cap dump.

He's not a "cap dump", but he's definitely not an asset Columbus is interested in. We might claim him off waivers for free to try him out as veteran depth, but we've got plenty of bottom-sixers. No need to actually pay for more.</div></div>

Ok, maybe not a cap dump per se but he literally has no value and would likely take him going on waivers to get him to move. But the Jackets are not interested in him. And we certainly are not giving any assets for him. 🙂

Thread: interesting

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SK101</b></div><div>Jackets aren’t interested in selling that low on laine</div></div>

I don’t know if I would agree. That 2nd is more like a late 1st. Really it depends on what the trade accomplishes for the Jackets. The Jackets would not be retaining anything on Laine’s contract. That money could be used to secure via FA or trade for a true 1C. Not saying it is great value but could be appealing if their is an ulterior motive.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>habitantlecolon</b></div><div>I can keep him and be under the cap I'm selling him at a pretty low price to open a spot in the roster!</div></div>

Dvorak has underperformed the past few seasons and has been injured a lot. He isn’t worth his cap hit. At this point he would be a cap dump to the CBJ. Maybe not in your view but in the CBJ’s view it would be.

Thread: what the leafs shold of did at deadline

CBJ reject. Nylander has improved his value over the past few weeks. He has performed very well with the Jackets and right now I can’t see the Jackets moving him right now.

Whatever…if you don’t have anything constructive to say then please practice the idea of just not saying anything. You are being very annoying.

Oh and that goes for you too SK101.
