Thread: Does this get it done for Timo
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>worldwidesensei</b></div><div>Prospect pool is stacked, so we just give assets away? No. Bad way to manage your assets

Do you know Claude Lemieux? And especially his history with BUF? No way he takes $1.5mm less. Cap is going way up. Meier is a great player. Why would he take an underpay when he has ZERO reason to do so? Explain.</div></div>

Too much youth. Quinn, Peterka, Cozens, Krebs, Ostlund, Kulich, Savoie, Rosen. If you trade any single one of the last 5 and a pick, your prospect pool barely takes a hit and you’re getting a point per game player. It’s a no brainer . Idk what you’re on about.

Because there’s no wingers making that much. Pastrnak is gonna get around 10-10.5 ish and Meier is not better than him. Meier’s comparable is probably around 8.5-9. No way he gets more than that

Thread: Matty
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Matty2005</b></div><div>Columbus is tanking remember I don’t think they would mind that for 5 million in free cap space and a better chance for Berdard

And the Larkin trade I’m trading you a at least 50 point player in dube a okay role player in Coleman ( not worth his contract) but whatever and a good prospect in matty Phillips yeah sure maybe a first not this year tho if I’m giving up a first with that then it’s a 24 first or two seconds</div></div>

Taking on the Lucic contract means they have to pay the player whatever remains for the season. It's not about cap space at this point, its about paying a player you don't need/want. They wouldn't willingly do you a favour for free.

Philips is 24 (6th round player, by the way) with 3 NHL games played total, he's not a "good prospect", he's a player that can barely crack an NHL roster.
Similar situation with Duehr.
Dube's career high is 32pts. No idea where you think he's a 50pt player.

DET doesn't even consider ANY Larkin trade unless it's a 1st+

Thread: Would be too fun to watch
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>csick</b></div><div>I don’t agree for a couple reasons:

Him and skinner have 5 years left.

But :

The cap is gonna jump to 95 mill ish with 3-4 years
Guys like Savoie will still be on an ELC in 4 years .
Guys that expire in 2 years can still be bridged till those contracts expire.</div></div>

There’s no promises the cap will jump that much and if it does those guys I mentioned will eat up a lot of it. They showed faith in power by burning a year last year. It would only work if all those guys took mild discounts based upon current trajectory. This doesn’t even take into consideration that UPL (or some other goalie) will be getting paid during that time as well. Gotta show faith in the team and reward them with decent goaltending, either from within or out the org. To me, it’s an improper use of space/assets. I’ll agree could be very entertaining to watch though.
