that top 9 would be really good, and the 4th line is solid. Could even move foegele to the left side and swap janmark out for lavoie

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Windjammer</b></div><div>It's still $10 mil of dead cap. No one is taking that on for a 2nd and 4th. It cost Toronto a first to dump $6 of Marleau, who was still an okay bottom sixer. So, taking $10 for a low end 2/3G will cost more than that.</div></div>

did you not read my comment? leafs moved back 13 spots to dump mrazek, it wasn't that big of an asking price to dump him. So not sure where you're getting these two firsts from?
mrazeks was 7.6 million of dead cap lmao

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Windjammer</b></div><div>It's 4 years and $20 mil of dead cap.</div></div>

this is 25/26 lmao, Chicago got Mrazek to move up 13 spots and lost their 38th pick for a total salary of 8.6 million for the the two years. If Edmonton made this trade there would be 8.1 million total salary left on Campbells contract, whos better and less injury prone than mrazek, what's the problem with a free second and fourth?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rooney</b></div><div>It's going to take a lot more than that to move Campbell's contract unfortunately.</div></div>

mrazek was injury prone and worse than campbell, if he's somewhat a decent goalie in 2 years then a 2nd a 4th for 2 more years is reasonable. Maybe a 1st at max

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Rob32sjsharks</b></div><div>It was also his first season starting and he liked gassed towards the end of last season, still don’t understand the Campbell signing</div></div>

me neither tbh, I don't think anyone guessed that skinner would've had that good of a rookie season, but a Ville husso trade would've been so much better than campbell. I hope that he can at least bounce back this year, he looked good in the playoffs last year. He basically costed us the 1st spot in the west

the avs have a top 5 d core yes lol I'm not saying they didn't. I'd like to have girard, just not at his cap hit, Im not agreeing with anyone lmao

I agree, skinner showed good signs of him being a good playoff goalie against La at times, but against Vegas he just wasn't playing his game and let in some very questionable goals. I get what you're saying

completely get what you're saying, and I understand that. But if Edmonton doesn't get a cup I don't think it will be because of their goaltending, more so their defense. We're kinda on the same page lol

Thread: deadline on a budget

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Andy_Dick</b></div><div>The guy thinks Kulak is better than Girard.

Makar and Toews are easily both in the top 5 of the league. Simply more ridiculous statements from the resident Oilers looney tunes. Dont let him represent the Oilers fans. Hes one of the worst on the site. Good for a laugh every now and then tho. He's on par w/ Caniac3000 with his out of context analytics.</div></div>

all he said was his stats aren't much better than kulaks, so given their cap hits, kualaks probably a better option compared to girard.
