Sabres
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DDossett</b></div><div>Really? Thats quite the payment. Not saying your wrong but seems like 2 talented young centers and 1st is something minessotta would love to have.
I do appriciate Brodin, but hes not on a good deal and its not like left d and veterans are a weakness on the wilds roster.
Don't really see why buffalo needs to spend even more on defense if your not trading power why are you getting brodin? That'll be over 30 mil in 4 left handed dmen next year.....and you're trading some of your best (touchable) assets to do it.
Not like it makes the team worse tho. Just not sure why you'd do it.</div></div>
Brodin has been arguably their best defenseman for quite a few years, to the point they paired him with Dumba for years to cover up for his defensive lapses. There’s a reason they were comfortable going into this season with Faber penciled into a top 4 role as a rookie. Faber has been solid and the pair has been their top pairing so far but Faber likely doesn’t have the same success without Brodin. He’s quietly been a fantastic defensive defenseman for years.
The offer isnt bad btw, it’s just more of the Wild not having someone remotely close to Brodin ready to step in if they moved him in a trade. Do you want to blow a hole in your defense to try to address your needs at forward?

Brodin is worth more to the Wild than that. I doubt that would get them to trade him.

This trade is Wild
MAF has gone on record saying he's done moving around, so he's not waiving his NMC. Foligno also has a NMC and a fresh extension so doubt he's going anywhere. Faber.. the Wild would be idiotic to move him unless a legit top 6 center is part of that trade.

So what's the deal with Krebs? I don't ever get to see the Sabres play and his point totals don't look good but that's rarely the entire story. What has he had for linemates? Is he just unlucky? Or is he just not looking like he'll pan out?

Would cost a lot but would be great if they are sellers
The Wild wanted Reaves back last summer, but guessing they were only offering closer league minimum so don't think they'd want him at his full cap hit. Not sure where this "rumor" got started that they wanted him back.

You’ve taken 2 useful roster players from the Wild in exchange for a cap dump, a player that they may be able to get off waivers if they’re patient and 2 picks unlikely to ever be a NHL regular. Thats an easy no.

Reaves kinda makes sense for the Blackhawks at this part of their rebuild; a solid veteran character player to have as a locker room presence for the young players. I could see them taking him for free and just letting him play out his contract with them.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SomeonesOffended</b></div><div>If they’re heading to a rebuild I could see that happening</div></div>
Unfortunately if them extending Hartman, Zuccarello, and Foligno are any indication, Leipold's mandate to keep going for it is still in effect. Guerin will continue to tinker around the edges, some moves will work, others won't and they'll probably be no closer to a Cup in 3 years when Kaprizov walks for nothing because he'll have a full NMC his last 2 seasons.
That being said, the current roster isn't anywhere near as bad as they were playing under Evason. It's basically the same roster as it was to start last season, except replacing Dumba with Faber and Steel with Rossi (both notable upgrades IMO). They've played much better for the first 2 games under Hynes, so they'll probably turn things around and get back in a playoff spot in time to get bounced in 5 or 6 games this spring so the cycle can continue.

Or just keep the roster they have and see how the team responds with the new coach. The team isn't much different than the one they had last year, no reason to make a bunch of changes just yet.

Yeah, I think the realistic destinations for Perry are retirement or some European league if he really wants to play. I doubt an NHL GM is going to let him near their team if Chicago just cut him like that.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>lowblocksniper</b></div><div>What do you mean? Are you asking if I was Minnesota would I trade Middleton + a 2nd and 3rd for a 1st rounder from Toronto?
If that's the question definitely not, first off I'd say Middleton's value is at around a 2nd rounder plus an average prospect at the very least. Secondly Minnesota has 1 more year of cap hell and need to keep a guy like Middleton until at least next years deadline since their isn't a ton of guys who can play top 4 making less than 3mil. Moving him early would probably mean someone offers them a deal they can't refuse.</div></div>
Middleton being effective and on a cheap deal means if I'm Bill Guerin I wouldn't consider moving him just yet unless someone is going to overpay (e.g. offer a 1st). No way I'm taking a 2nd to give someone 2 playoff runs with him. I'd take that at next year's TDL after I've had the TDL this year and next summer to try to sucker someone into overpaying.

How does a 24yr old defenseman with zero NHL games yet and no impressive stats get you a 4th liner, who is currently averaging 0.5PPG. What you offered for Kostin makes more sense to acquire Maroon.</div></div>
Basically. If the Wild decide to trade Maroon, they'd need to get something back that doesn't amount to nothing especially if they're retaining any salary with their cap situation.

Detroit Red Wings signed Patrick Kane (1 Year / $2,750,000 AAV)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>seanrushton</b></div><div>Takes up a roster spot, a lineup spot, and cap space. Plus he was bad when he was in New York and on top of that a knee surgery means that he's more than likely going to be even worse at the things he was bad at</div></div>
If he's bad, he won't take up a roster spot because he has a NTC, not a NMC, so he can be buried in the minors if they don't want to play him. Cap space? According to this site, they currently have just over $4m cap space currently all the way up to $20m at the deadline so they'll be fine. He was bad in NY? Who cares, there's a chance his surgery was what he needed and he'll be productive again. If not, he can either play in Grand Rapids or agree to a mutual termination to not report. They're at 46 out of 50 contracts, so that's not even a concern. Money spent? I think the Ilitch family will still be able to afford that yacht for their yacht with $2m spent on Kane's contract.

Basically, they'll know in a couple games if he's going to work out on that line. Absolute worst case scenario is his hip isn't good enough and he goes on LTIR getting paid for nothing. The only risk here is how many unfortunate people will have to buy a Little Caesers Hot-n-ready pizza to give the Ilitch family $2.75m to pay Kane to not play if he's that bad. Those are the real victims here.

And Minnesota would have trouble extending him since he'll be a UFA. Them giving up a 1st for a rental when they have so much dead cap doesn't make any sense either, they're not contending for anything other than a wild card spot this year and next most likely.
