Thread: Danny Briere Fleece Tactics
1) I don't believe Pinto is eligible for an offer sheet. Even if he was, Ottawa is very likely matching that.
2) I think that contract for Klingberg would be a big mistake for a rebuilding team. Leafs fans are happy to get cap relief with him on LTIR.
3) Petterson will not be traded unless he forces his way out, which seems unlikely given how the team is doing this year. Even if he was traded its not nearly enough given every NHL team with some cap space would be bidding. Any offer for him needs to start with greater than or equal to the value of 4 1st round picks, since thats what Vancouver would get as offer sheet compensation, which I don't think your offer has. But it would likely take more than that.
4) I honestly think there is positive value for Risto, especially with the cap limit going up next year. When he was traded to Philly there were several teams in the bidding war and he has improve since then. At 50% retention he absolutely has positive value.

Thread: Laine and Fox
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BSpadaro83</b></div><div>Your missing in that you seem to think the bonus limit is a hard line, where if they are over the ~6m in bonuses that make up 7.5% of the cap, they have to shed players that have bonuses to get compliant. Thats not it. They just lose dollars in real cap space for those additional bonus dollars. So the Rangers show 23m in cap space with CF right now but are really closer to 18m when you factor in Laffy. They arent just gonna give away Fox for some space lol. Easier ways to clear money.</div></div>

Yeah I was confused on how the bonus cushion works. I see now that its more of like a tax than a limit. Thanks for explaining guys.

Thread: Laine and Fox
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>buchiegang</b></div><div>There are better ways then to part with Fox. Yes true the more players with bonuses that are in the lineup the lower the working cap for this year however. All those players are on ELCs and are under a million dollars. So the more Forster floats filled with ELCs the less cap has to be spent on roster players. And vice versa, the less ELC players on the roster, the more cap available to gov two FAs. Rangers will likely decide on keeping one of ADA or Strome (seems like ADA form initial reports) and move Smith if they have to. Not only are they not moving Fox for that purpose, they are not trading him for that...</div></div>

OK that makes more sense. Admittedly, I think I saw the tweet from Frank and jumped the gun on Fox.
