hahah. ya its screwed. I wanted to highlight that if Matthews Marner and Nylander take every penny they can get then the leafs are gonna have to beg some old rich Toronto born players to sign for dirt cheap if they want a whiff of the playoffs. Do they honestly think they can carry the team to a Stanley cup taking up nearly half the entire salary cap? It's so obvious these guys just want big money and a 4 month vacation. I think Domi, Giordano, Tavares and formerly Bunting might be the only guys that care about the leafs winning. Buddy Trel needs to offload Nylander ASAP.

Thread: karlsson to canes
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Good thing that you're not a Carolina fan, or we would all blame this on the Hurricane fanbase.

Los Angeles just paid the equivalent of three seconds to get rid of a $5 million cap hit for one season while retaining more than $2 million on Ivan Provorov, for a net of $3 million in cap relief. Even assuming that our latently talented GM overpaid by 200%, and should only have paid ONE second-round draft pick, as you do here, what does that tell you about the value of paying Erik Karlsson $22 million not to play for San Jose? And there are some subtle indications that Erik Karlsson just may be worth more than Cal Petersen, Sean Walker and Helge Grans.</div></div>

It's a three way trade and the net return would be Myers, Suzuki, 2nd and 1st for Karlsson 50% retained which isnt terrible. Myers term is less than Petersens so overall easier on the cap, could maybe even trade him retained at deadline. I think a 2nd, 1st, and Suzuki is also much better than Walker and Grans. I think VAN could probably add to the deal but Pesce is a UFA so wouldnt be much, maybe a decent 2nd round prospect. Carolina could upgrade 2nd to a 1st if they rly want Karlsson but unlikely since they are already giving up a two 1st of value in Pesce and Suzuki.
