<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>chaserice</b></div><div>yeah I just look at the 41st pick from past years and I think there's a chance of getting a good top 6 player and johnsson is good but in this time I think he gets no more than a late 2nd</div></div>

That's fine and all a late 2nd is okay for Johnsson from my books anyway. Picks are overrated for sure tho. Here's an article

There's about a 35% that a second round pick will even play in the NHL, let alone be a good top 6 player. It's easy to think that you are getting a top 6 guy because they stand out but statistically it's not a good chance.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Then why doesn't that figure into your analysis of what Arizona would be "saving" versus what they would be paying in 2020-2021?

By the way, this year the off-season doesn't start until October 9, so nobody's paid anybody's signing bonuses yet.</div></div>

Yeah no, they have been paid out so you are talking out of your ass. A simple google search would have confirmed that for you.

Hjalm is owed 2M in salary over the 2020-2021 season. He's been paid 2M already in signing bonuses. Hopefully that clears that up for you because that can't be anymore clear.

Apparently you have been arguing this whole time clueless to the fact that Andersen has had his 4M signing bonus paid even though it's been at the top of the post the entire time.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>I don't understand your math here. Hjalmarsson is due $4 million and Kuemper $3.5 million, while Andersen is due $5 million. With the retention, that means Arizona, which would have paid $5.5 million for the two players, now is paying $5 million for one and has to pay a League minimum at least for a second player plus $2.5 million retention. That's COSTING them money. And if you do the trade AFTER the signing bonuses are paid, Arizona pays $2 million for Hjalmarsson's bonus, $2.5 million for the retention on him, and $1 million for Andersen, which will end up saving them less than $2 million from the $5.5 million they would have paid when you add in the cost of the replacement player.</div></div>

Hjalmarsson signing bonus has already been paid. The retaining on Hjalmarsson doesn't need to be at 50%, I kind of just used 50% as a base. It could be at 25%, 30% whatever the Leafs would need to make it work.

This is the salary Arizona would be paying after this deal.

Hjarlmsson - 2M (30% retained) = 600,000. Freddy Andersen (1 million) = 1.6M actual salary

Leafs - Keumper - 4.5M + 1.4M = 5.9M salary

5.9-1.6 = 4.3M. This deal saves Arizona 4.3M in payroll while acquiring a #1 goalie for the upcoming season. 50% retention on hjalm would have been a 3.9M difference.

Caphit is irrelevant to the coyotes unless they are looking to spend MORE which doesn't seem relevant at this point. Andersen having a 5M Caphit doesn't really contribute to this conversation as the coyotes would only be paying 1M of it.

Signing bonuses were paid out on July 1st, 2020
