Thread: Hockey Trade - Calgary
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>Lucic at 2.6 is viable though, its about the same as the Reaves contract. However since 750k of his contract is already retained I'm pretty sure Calgary can only retain up to 2.25M totaling 50%</div></div>

Yeah - I am a little unclear on how a buyout would work with retained salary too.
Based on the buyout calc it looks like it would split between Calgary and Edm. So if Boston's was half of Calgary the buyout would be
2021- 2.4m
2022- 1.75m
2023 - 250k
2024 - what looks like +250K?
2025 - what looks like +250K?

After all that. They would probably be better off trading Heinen for Simmonds and 5th or something.

Thread: Backes for Kase and Rakell
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>connorthehun</b></div><div>I see it breaking down as:

2020 1st &lt;---&gt; taking Backes
2021 1st + Senyshyn + Vaakanainen &lt;--&gt; Rakell
2021 2nd + Studnicka &lt;---&gt; Kase

imo this makes the Bruins instant favorites for the cup this year and next, since both Kase and Rakell are here for next year as well (Rakell for a year after that too).</div></div>

Would you give up Jones or Steel for Heinen and a 2nd?
That is essentially the Studnicka part of this deal.

A 1st is too much for Backes, Bruins don't need to. Miller is on LTIR for 2.5m and Moore could be moved and they gain an asset (4th rd pick) which is better than giving up a 1st or 2nd to get rid of Backes. I'd rather keep backes and the pick.

Bjork should not be sitting and he isn't a 4th line guy.

Thread: Expanding on Kscoop's Pastrnak for Draisaitl
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>earl08</b></div><div>This comment aged well!</div></div>

I can't tell if you are being sarcastic? I think it did age well.

A) They Traded young talent in Donato for Coyle.
B) Trochek is on the market - Also Coyle. Not a Top center, but a decent 2c and a great 3c. I am very glad they didn't sign any of the center's I mentioned.
C) Studnicka looks real good, Frederic not so much as a top 6, but he will be solid NHL'er, but they have Beecher coming too. Also Krejci is still on a 60pt+ pace.
D) I stand by this. Still don't think the Bruins are that old. Chara throws off their avg age. He is old, but McAvoy, Carlo, Pastrnak, Debrusk are all 23 or younger, Then the 27-32 year olds in Marchand, Krug, Coyle. Bjork is still pretty young 23 and having a much better year than his stats show.
E) This is still true. Bergeron and Krejci are a top 5-10 center combo - maybe higher.


I would still take Pastrnak over Draisaitl.
Bergeron in fact had 79pts in 65 games - so not falling off &amp; is PPG this year.
Yeah Draisaitl is a stud. so is pastrnak. Not sure 11 more points and 9 less goals is worth 2m more a year. Also has the benefit of playing with the best player in the world. I know Bergeron and Marchand are real good, but they aren't McDavid. I bet he would get a couple point bounce playing with McDavid.

Since I wrote this. None of the Boston center's have fallen off and Studnicka and Beecher are coming. Pastrnak is leading the league in goals.

*Edit.
Nevermind, I saw you liked the original post. I was afraid this was the same post I said Draisaitl would never be worth the contract - Whoops. That comment will not age well.
