Thread: Bye Bye Baertschi Sayonara Sutter
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BurgerBoss</b></div><div>For startes, people on LTIR have 0 value on trades because they won't effect the cap of neither team. Therefore you're trading Hutton+6th for Miller and you're just basically dumping Sutter to OTT. Miller is worth much more than that, and Melnyk will never take Sutter just to pay more. He's a cheap man. Pionk and Namestnikov are worth 2nd and 3rd round picks. CGY won't deal Bennett to a division rival without overpayment, and that's not it. Also LA as a retooling team have more use for picks than 3rd liners.

That TB trade is interesting though, although Callahan also has NMC that he might not waive just to be bought out of his contract, because the likelihood of he getting a new contract is low at best.</div></div>

If players on IR have no value why do their contracts keep getting traded or moved? Clarkson was moved to Vegas to give Columbus cap relief - that was obviously worth something. The same with Nathan Horton, Chris Pronger, etc. I don't have enough knowledge of the CBA details but clearly there is a reason those contracts get moved.
