Excellent comments by both Swinny and Hopefullynextyear. Provides good balanced perspective.
From an outsiders point of view it looks like Peeke has been miscast. Not a 1st pairing at all and probably only a decent back up if your second pairing guy gets injured. Likely could become a very solid 3rd pairing D man, which is still valuable, especially to the Canucks who cant wait to dump Myers. Of course, Canucks also kicking tires on Bear too, who would probably fill that 2nd pairing slot with Cole, quite nicely.

It is an interesting match for both teams. Jackets have 3 potential D-men available (Peeke, Bean and Boqvist) that all are extremely hard to value in my opinion. Peeke seems to be attracting a ton of attention as a shot blocking RD, but he makes a ton of mistakes and has not proven he can handle any real defensive responsibility. I do think if he had a stable LD paired with him and was deployed in a second or third line role he would be significantly better. He has made it clear he can't play against top lines, yet we kept deploying him there. Bean and Boqvist are similar that they both have decent upside as high draft picks that are still younger defensemen and just haven't stayed healthy. There is no telling how either will develop or if they are the next Ryan Murray who will always be hurt.
The issue I see for the Jackets is locking in Garland at $5M for the next 3 years. I am not sure that is something that the Jackets want to do with all of the young guys we have to sign. This trade would leave us with $18M next year to sign Johnson, Marchenko, Tex, Sillinger, Chinakov and a couple depth guys. Not to mention potential buyouts of Gudbranson and Elvis based on this season.
I think the trade makes a ton of sense for both sides, but will be interesting to see how it comes together. I think this proposal is pretty close to what Columbus would be looking for. Jackets would be looking for an AHL player with upside or a pick along with Garland while moving out 2 guys that would require waivers to go to the AHL and likely do not have a future in Columbus.

For what Alvin wants to do in this deal, there is no doubt the Jackets are the best fit out of the trio of teams reportedly interested.
I look at this and really wonder what direction the Canucks go here - as the Jackets have 3 defenseman that arguably could be had.
Cost point: about what you have, although I feel the Canucks may need to move a mid round pick.
Peeke: definitely one of them, and after last season one would be buying low. Good saty-at-home.presence with a strong physical edge. Would add to Soucy and Cole making the Canucks blueline very tough to deal with.
Boquist: injuries have sidetracked his development somewhat, but there is an offensive game there to be untapped - still upside here. Would give the Canucks a good puck mover to compliment the offensive game. Paired with Soucy, he could be very useful.
Cost point: about what you have here, maybe upgrading Woo.
Bean: an underrated two way D with a physical edge. Jackets fans on CF are quite luke warm about him overall, but he is the best of the trio imo. Gives the Nucks a likely top-4 D when he rounds out, who can play both sides. Think a poor man's Jovo..... that is what I see here.
Cost: Garland with nominal retention and a pick.
This deal is fine and all, but there a 3 D here that could be had, and for Alvin it becomes a question if which direction you want to go and if he is willing to move a little more to get something done - given each players acumen. Each one would simply bring different elements.
Going to be interesting to see what he does.

Out of left field but
I would love a Garland-Mantha+ swap if Garland had one year left, but the term makes it really tough for the caps. On top of that, I don't think this trade makes enough sense for the caps to move Iorio. They (and I) really like him.

If it's anything approaching this, Armstrong should be fired out of a cannon directly into another cannon, where he will be fired back into the original cannon. And so on and so forth until morning.

No, you're not missing anything -- people just look at the red numbers at the top of the home page and don't realize it's because CapFriendly is showing Ferland on the IR list instead of the LTIR list, which is normal during the summer. When the season begins, he'll go on the LTIR list just like you have here and everything should be fine.

Interesting on the pageau deal. Tough to send bad contracts back at the trade deadline without grossly overpaying but yeah give ottawa an extra pick to take on hickey, Leo or that first with Ladd. They were stockpiling picks at that time, I'm sure they would have done it.</div></div>
They give up a first and a second at the time which was a lot to give up without taking salary back imo. But they also traded another second for Greene.
In hindsight I would’ve traded
2020 1st, 2020 2nd and the 2021 2nd with Leo + Hickey for
JGP and Mike Reilly.
Maybe at the time you would have had to throw in Aho but that seems irrelevant now lol.

To clarify Pageau was the right move at the time. But he should’ve had Ottawa taking back Leo and Hickey in the deal. That way he could’ve kept Toews.
Of course he could’ve just traded his first to dump Ladd instead of moving Toews for scraps and trading a first for Kyle Palmieri and Travis Zajac smh. Honestly Zajac may have been the better player in the deal that year lmao.

I’m not even joking. Lou won two GM of the year awards cause Garth Snow was somehow better at acquiring talent than he was. Only thing Lou did right was hire Trotz lol. I like Lambert but Jesus Christ that firing was a bad look.

I actually edited the post cause I didn’t feel I elaborated well on it lol. Basically this entire team is Garth Snow’s baby and Lou dropped that baby on it’s head lol. Every young player in NY. Barzal, Beauvillier, and Wahlstrom in particular are Snow’s guys. Lou doesn’t even deserve credit for his first round picks in 2018. Garth played with Wally’s dad in college and everyone knew Snow wanted Dobson back then.
Lou won’t make another move cause he is terrified of ****ing up again. He’s like a kid trying to clean up a mess before mom and dad come home. But everything still looks a little ****ed up after he’s done lmao.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>eVANder</b></div><div>As an isles fan, do you sense that Dobson is off limits or would Lou move him to get a star player up front?</div></div>
Lou already moved one elite puck moving d man in Toews and it was a disaster. You have to understand every core player outside of Dobson was drafted by Snow. Barzal, Nelson, Lee, Beauvillier, BaileyC Pelech, Pulock, Mayfield and Sorokin are all Snow’s guys.
The issue is that Lou made their defense significantly worse while not adding young talent thru the draft the way Garth did. Like you can’t expect Bailey to be the same player he was on in 17-18 if you have Chara and Greene patrolling the blue line.
Lou knows the only way to save his job to try and copy what Garth did. So he traded for Romanov who is friends with Soroky. Meanwhile he’s betting on Robin Salo to be the last left handed defenseman Garth got in the draft who will make a big impact. He isn’t gonna improve the forward core via trade unless the deal resembles something like Strome for Eberle in 2017.

I think you'd have to buy out Johnson. Have another team sign him. And then trade for him. Caps did something similar with Brooks Orpik IIRC.
