Thread: Pierre-Luc Dubois Trade Part 2 - 2021-2022 season
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sensibleguy</b></div><div>I’m a bit confused by your comment, but I think you just accidentally put Caps instead of Sens, and Stepan instead of Watson, but I’m not positive.

The Sens picked up Stepan from ARI, in the current 20/21 season, with one year left on his contract.
The Sens signed Dadonov, a UFA from FLA, but he’s not in major decline like Okposo.
The Sens traded for Watson from NSH, but that’s a $1.5MM contract, not $6MM, and Watson fills a $1.5MM role, so not a cap dump, they paid for him with a 4th.</div></div>

my bad, i did put caps instead of sens. But the sens just traded for Stepan, 6.5 hit, 5 mil real cash, of which the sens only paid 2 mil, since bonus was already paid. So like I said, sens love those contracts.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sensibleguy</b></div><div>I understand why you think that, but that was 1-2 years ago. A commitment of $6MM cap for three years is too long, for Okposo’s current production abilities. I’ve been trying to get Habs fans to understand this because they keep trying to trade Byron to Ottawa. I know this is just speculation, but I would think people would want there to be a reasonable chance to make sense, talking about Habs fans. Ottawa could take on a one year contract fairly easily, but two years would be much more difficult because they’ll need their cap next season. Three years cuts into their cap when they really need it.</div></div>

Also the caps just did it with Stepan, so it was months ago, not years.
