Thread: REBUILD
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Burnout</b></div><div>Even if they liked Beauvillier (and that feels more like a "hey, he's French Canadian" idea more than an actual fit, since Montreal has guys to play LW and are rebuilding), its still a close to straight swap for Montreal since both he and Hoffman are UFAs at the end of next season. There's just no gain for Montreal here and a straight loss in both cap and real salary.</div></div>

Beauvillier being French Canadian was a big factor but also he can play both wings, top 6 or top 9, I think he can fit just about anywhere. I think he'd be good to play for some of those young guys they have coming up, and if he isn't a good fit he's not a hard contract to get rid of. Similar to the Monahan situation I guess is my thinking

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ohmyjlord</b></div><div>There's some merit to the Habs trade. MTL would take on $2.15m in salary, but only for a year while getting rid of Hoffman's extra year. Beauvillier is a piece Hughes would probably be interested in, and having a one-year ticket to see how he could fit on the team is interesting.

Not sure how Myers would fit in a defense with Matheson, Guhle, Harris, Barron, Xhekaj, Kovacevic and Savard though. Assuming everyone stays healthy, I guess we could carry 8 defensemen and come up with somekind of rotation, I don't know. At least, Myers would bring experience, size and is a RHD, so there's that going for him...and at this point, he might have more value than Edmundson if we intend to flip him at the deadline with retention.

Not overly enthousiastic with the offer, but I'm willing to talk it out if I'm in Hughes' shoes.</div></div>

If they buy out Myers then they get beauvillier for 2.15m instead of picks, seems like something I'd be interested in if I'm the habs

Thread: EK65
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dannibalcorpse</b></div><div>If Grier shopped this deal around, I'm sure another team beats it. I get that San Jose would be taking bad contracts back but this is a lot of nothing for a player that, even if he's only playing at 60% of what he's doing right now, would be top pair on most teams in the league. Barrie makes sense to send back, sure, but Foegele is an overpaid bottom-6 guy, Janmark is a guy that's spend half the year in the AHL, and Puljujarvi is a full on reclamation project at this point. I think you need to throw *something* else with some value in here for it to be something the Sharks jump at.

I think the "three 1sts" is a bit much to ask, but I also think that other teams would be willing to pay more than this if they wanted to get Karlsson.</div></div>

Yeah I agree, those players are in the deal to fit ek65 under the cap and Edmonton in my opinion could give more picks to make a deal happen. Question is whose more desperate than Edmonton rn, and should San Jose do whatever it takes to get the contract off the books now so in 5 years it doesn't **** them over
