Now to Draft and into Summer
Vegas would rather trade someone else. Roy is young and locked up for a team friendly deal. Also if they were interested in trading him, no highly doubt that he's worth that much. it's a pretty big overpayment.
Additionally COL would say no too. They don't want Barron and they're isn't room for him. Evans isn't the best player either and COL would probably want MTL to retain a good chunk of his contract.
Finally, if Vegas needs to get money to spend, who are they spending it on? Marchessault isn't leaving Vegas and he's also not worth 8 mil.

ANA wouldn't accept. they're taking on 2 cap dumb that aren't needed and they would want more for them. at least a 2nd and a later pick.
Broberg doesn't want to play for Edmonton anymore. might as well throw him in the trade with ANA. Would why EDM trade away Ceci just to get a player like Carrier. he's just a more offensive ceci and like him isn't a top 4 D. why not use the 5 mil that you used on Toffoli and spend it on a actual top 4 D like Pesce.
Also sign some other D a get Desharnais off the team, dude isn't good. you would probably be better of playing Pysyk instead of him.
Also Toffoli isn't needed when you have Kane. he's a goal scorer. just get some extra depth

I feel like Marner is worth more than that. a top 4 D and a meh G (if he repeats next year then hes soild) and a 2nd for one of the best playmakers in the league.
Also these trades would physically be unable to happen since both Marner and JEEK would use their NMC to deny the trade

What's the point in this? even with these trade MTL doesn't look like a playoff team. even if they do make the playoffs they aren't going very far. That top 6 isn't very good (also crosby would be on the 1st over Suzuki) and the depth isn't good either. The G isn't very good and neither is the D.

“Seen as a horrible overpay”
Again, it seems like you once again just don’t know what it costs to bring in a top flight UFA from another team.
Since you don’t have to trade assets or use a draft pick to acquire a player, it costs more in MONEY.
The guys I listed as comparables were simply the guys who went to new teams as UFAs. You can hate it if you want but that’s what it costs to get a top flight UFA to come to your team.
Tavares, gaudreau, Panarin, Bobrovsky, Pietrangelo, Hamilton. That’s what it costs.
Makar if he wasn’t an RFA would have made a ****ton more than 9.5 million.
RFAs cost less than UFAs to get the same quality player. This is an indisputable fact.
4-5 mill on the UFA market gets you very little. If Mercer was 30 years old and done developing.
But it seems to be a pattern that you don’t understand the concept of primes, development, and aging.</div></div>
No you just overvalue your players it's honestly crazyyyyy how much you do that. a 50 pt player is not a 8 Mil player. and I guaranteed your wrong about Nemec. he most likely won't be as good as them.
and yet again he isn't a 1st line D man. he's literally only there cuz Hamilton is out. and once again, you are giving so much value to a guy who has only played 31 games in the NHL. your not even being reasonable on him and mercer. you think a 19 yr old is like the best D in the world when he's not. teams pay UFAs what they think their worth and sometimes they are off which results in the fews guys you mentions.
your neglecting to mention good UFAs actually worth their contracts or better then what they paid.
FWD:
- Duchene
- Danault
- Zuccarello
- Giroux
- Trocheck
- Hyman
- Evander Kane
- Patrick Kane
- Marchment
- Burakovsky
- Verhaeghe
- O'Reilly
- Vatrano
Now I specifically brought these guys up because they are either on par with Mercer or just straight up better.
DEF
- Tanev
- Graves
- Zub
you got to look for these contracts. it's harder to find D cuz not many good ones going free agency.
the only reason why players like power and sanderson get those contracts is because their team is pretty much putting a wager on that player being worth that contract in the future. they seen glimpses of them and liked it enough for them to hand these contracts out. Nemec has only played 31 games so no team will throw 10 mil on him because there's no guarantee. if they miss and Nemec doesn't become anything then they need to live w a waste of 10 mil.
If I'm given Nemec 10 mil he needs to prove he's worth it. he's 31 games into his career I'm sure he'll become something but no one can say he'll be one of the best D in the league by the end of that 10 mil.
Another factor is that Nemec would need to prove he is worth 10 mil of a teams cap. if Nemec would ask for 10 mil no team in the league would give him it. especially when there is multiple better more secure options.
And yet again just because a player is an RFA doesn't mean they can't leave. They can demand a trade or just refuse to sign with the team.
finally, you proved your whole point wrong bringing up Power and Sanderson. RFAs sign big deals like this all the time BECAUSE THEY ARE WORTH THE MONEY or the team simply believes they will be before the contract is up. bridge deals are normally signed when either a player believes they will be worth more in a few years or if they need to be for a teams cap. using this logic I should expect to see on the offseason for 8 mil but the absolute most he'll get is 6.
again stop using established and proven NHL veteran's contracts as "proof" that Nemec is worth 10 on the open market. he simply isn't even near that and you need to come back down to reality. using your logic, Danault should be worth 8, duchene is worth like 11 mil, and Hyman would be worth something like 13-15mil on the market.
Please do the league a favour and never become a GM. you would literally destroy a franchise with your horrible contracts.

Call me when lindholm is 35, washed up, and you still have 3 more years left at 9 million dollars, and mercer is 27 and right in his prime.
Surely expensive old players on big contract don't turn into disasters?
Here is a list of 35+ guys making 7+ million
Carey Price
Sergei Bobrovsky
Kopitar
Jamie Benn
Alexander ovechkin
Backstrom
Burns
Webber
Vlasic
Crosby</div></div>
Not sure Lindholm is going to get 9 and ain't no way you listed Kopitar and Crosby as washed up. Bobrovskiy is honestly having a good year but was seen as a horrible overpay. Burns is also having a good season at his age. and Ovechkin can bounce back and knowing him he probably will. Price, backstrom and webber don't even play in the league anymore and even when they did both price and webber were seen as some of the best in their position until they retired.
And to let you know RFAs dont make players take less money bro. if makar was offered like 6 Mil he could just demanded a trade. he's paid 9.5 cuz literally the best and proved it. Mercer is still young. if he can replicate his first 2 seasons on the open market he would be worth around 4-5m mil.
You can't use bad signings as a justification for Nemec's value. especially since he's only been in the league for like 31 games. you sign that 10 mil deal for nemec it's a loosing game

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dgibb10</b></div><div>Every single one of the players you mentioned signed their deal as an RFA except hedman and Josi, both of whom took discounts to stay with their teams.
You seem to lack insight into what it costs to bring a new UFA into your team (not retain an existing player), the concept of RFA in general, the concept of player development, the concept of inflation, and just general knowledge.
NHL deals are more than 1 year long you know that right?
Here are some recent UFA dmen who went to new teams and what they got:
Alex Pietrangelo: 10.8% of cap from ages 30-37
Dougie Hamilton: 11.4% of cap from ages 28-34
Seth Jones: 11.66% of cap from ages 28-35
on 10 mill AAV for Nemec that would be 11.4% of the cap for ages 19-27.
I would rather have Nemec from age 19-27 than any of those guys over the age ranges they were signed at.
Sanderson and Power got 8+ mill with 4 years of RFA control left.
In terms of forwards an 8 mill deal for Mercer would be
9.1% of the cap from ages 22-30
The caliber of player you can bring in at that cost is:
Alex Killorn from age 33-37 for 7.5% of the cap
JVR from ages 29-33 for 8.81% of the cap
Nazem Kadri from ages 31-38 for 8.5% of the cap.
Any rebuilding team would jump at the chance to offer these contracts and get these players for the majority of their primes.</div></div>
Wow that is a big increase and Jones is also well known as one of the worst contracts in the league. Unless Hamilton is playing like last year every single year I would say he is also overpaid. Pietro is the only one that is actually reasonable and is still good. You attack my knowledge when you literally think Nemec is worth 10 and Mercer is worth 8.
and Sanderson and Power are WAYYYYYYYY better than Nemec.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dgibb10</b></div><div>The RFA system is built to devalue players and help teams save money.
As a 1st time RFA with no arbitration rights, 4x4 would be more than reasonable to walk him straight to UFA. Again I can go up to 4x5 if you want but that's the reality of bridge deals in the NHL.
If mercer today hit the UFA market, things would be a lot different.
You see what teams pay for guys in their 30s? If he could be a UFA I'd be shocked if Mercer got less than 8 million dollars a year from a team on a 7 year deal from age 22-29 right through his prime.
Don't believe me, go look at what Elias Lindholm is gonna get this offseason and tell me if you'd rather have him from age 30-38, or mercer from age 22-30

Honestly I'd much rather have an establish player like Lindholm over mercer. More mature, better defensively, and better production and a little note, teams pay older players that much and can see if their reliable. also I could probably name like 10 d and/or forward players/prospects that I would much rather have other these two

Well you would be surprised then. No one is offering them anything close to those deals. Nemec is not worth more than Makar he isn't even half of the player. and Mercer is around 3-4 Mil player. signing him to 8mil would instantly be one of the worst contracts in the league. if thats the case your saying mercer is just as good as hughes, better than Bratt, and hischier. and almost as good as Stamkos, Zibanejad, Jason Robertsson, and Tage Thompson. and stop calling him a top 6 when he's isnt even in ur top 6.
also for perspective, your saying Nemec is more valuable than Makar, Fox, Hedman, Josi, Morrisey, and Theodore. you seriously value your players too highly. come here saying a 19 yr rookie with 31 games of experience is one of the best D in the league. you need to humble yourself

It makes no sense to compare these guys to point. Sure Mercer has similar number in a rookie season but he is not going to become a point and after Point's rookie year he was proven, Holtz and Nemec are still unproven. and they never would've traded point, the miller trade was just to free up cap. and I'm sure they're a little upset not having him now seeing what he turned into. they also had no choice but to let gourde go they literally couldn't stop it. and why would they sell just after a single playoff loss?
again I'm not saying the Devils should sell all their prospects. your just so high on your own prospects that you don't think Mcdavid could ever have the value of your unproven prospects.

Tampa Bay made the conference finals in 2011 after missing the playoffs for a number of years. In 2012 they were in a similar spot to NJD on the outside of the playoffs looking in. Did they buy? Nope they actually sold, and that pick turned into Andrei Vasilevsky.
They were contenders for YEARS with Ben Bishop. Did they trade Vasy for win now help?
Another massive part of their cups was Sergachev who they traded for and developed
They held cirelli, another crucial part of their cups.</div></div>
at that time point wasn't known as a great prospect. If they got an offer for McDavid that included point then they would've accepted. Tampa didn't really sell. the trade you reference was tampa trading for Quincey and immediately flipping him for the first. that isn't selling that's just a great deal for Tampa. Cirelli was never seen as a great prospect either. Tampa is great at drafting and they made hits later in the draft which is what NJ could still do but NJ is honestly just a meh drafter, you almost only get hits with 1sts.
Meier's contract makes him have significantly less value. he just isn't good with the Devils and the cap just needed to work.
and there isn't a need for the Devils to go all out right now you simply said you wouldnt even give Edmonton want NSH wants for Saros for McDavid
