Thread: SC contenders devils sens

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MacIsles</b></div><div>Wilde and a first seems like a bit of an overpay for a guy with 1YR left and UFA status (even as an in division), but I do absolutely love that lineup so I could get used to this.</div></div>

Yeah it's definitely a slight overpay, but nothing crazy. Isles can afford to give up wilde since they have pulock, dobson, mayfield on the right side. Palmieri is the closest thing to a "sniper" on the market. Maybe the devils can retain a little more salary? I think it's worth it. Then next season, lee-barzal-palmieri, beau-nelson-wahlstrom, Bailey-koivula-eberle top 9.

Thread: Ho-Sang

Lee-nelson-Ho-sang 2nd line would be great -with Nelson rounding out his defensive game they shouldn’t be a defensive liability

Thread: Ho-Sang

If Lou doesn't bring in a Top 6 FW I think we are going to see the following lines:

Beau - Barzal - Eberle
Lee - Nelson - Bailey
dal Colle - Fritz/Koivula/Komarov - Ho-Sang
Martin - Cizikas - Clutterbuck/Komarov

If Lou brings in a Top 6 forward we should see something like this:

Top 6 W - Barzal - Eberle
Lee - Nelson - Bailey
dal Colle - Beau - Ho-Sang
Martin - Cizikas - Clutter/Komarov

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Maj</b></div><div>Why did you only sign Barzal for 5 years ? Wouldn't you try to sign him long term ?</div></div>

I would certainly try. Just going off of this new trend of guys taking shorter deals to cash in multiple times as the cap increases. If he wants 8 years and it's a good AAV I'm all for it

I never compared Gusev to them. Wake up and stop believing the hype. If Vegas wanted him? They had the money, they would have signed him.</div></div>

Vegas do want him but cant meet his price due to their cap constraints

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Chris1022</b></div><div>That’s a good team, but why not just LTIR Ladd?</div></div>

Because he's eventually going to be "healthy" again and count against the cap. Can't stash him there forever IMO. Just swallow the pride and get him off the books cleanly at the cost of picks

Thread: Gusev and Dzingel

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MacIsles</b></div><div>At no point did I even slightly suggest that Wahlstrom or Dobson should be sent to Vegas. Also, Vegas' scouts clearly liked him enough to tell GMGM to sign him in the middle of a playoff series. The bottom line is: Vegas is a team with a ton of chemistry in their top 6, values that, and also didn't expect Gusev to command a ton in RFA. They wanted the bridge (FWIW, Sorokin is also going to get this "bridge" deal if he ever comes over from CSKA). That's why he's on the block and that's why he's not going to be a Golden Knight. And we're really comparing this guy to Yakupov? and Dawes? When did they have the same international success Gusev had? Maybe world Junior's against U18 kids? Maybe it is unfair to say panarin, but there's definitely a reason as to why he's the most hyped up KHL player coming over as a FA in quite some time.</div></div>

Just to be fair Sorokin will get an ELC assuming he ventured over next year. He’ll be 23 so two year ELC then a free agent

Thread: My move

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MacIsles</b></div><div>I thought that figure was just used to calculate compensation? I read that they would not have to pay 14,000,000 for the 7 years.</div></div>

My understanding is any contract over 5 is calculated total salary paid divded by 5 years for a team offersheeting if WPG offered this or accepts the offer sheet it would be only 10 million cause they hold gis rights.

If they were gonna give him that much term, at least get the AAV way down. AAV should’ve been around 2 million for 6 years.

There’s just no one out there rn. Johansson maybe, but he’s more of a wing than a center. Artem Anisimov could be a trade target, but he has the same issues Brassard does tbh.

if the reports are true that he wants 7-8 years at $7M, I'd probably move on from him. And if we could manage to get this done, we are miles better than what we would be with him

Leddy is worth a first and fourth, assuming the first is mid-range. Three picks is a little much.

Pavelski's game will age better than Marleau's. I think if he gets 7.5M he's only getting 2 years, though.
