Thread: Making Full Use of CBO
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jdfitz77</b></div><div>Sure, but they aren’t getting Ekblad
And they aren’t even getting the return u want
With FLA ready to take a step back losing Bob, Hoffman &amp; Dadonov...
there’s no way they’d give up a 1st

Yes, they need to cut salary apparently
But Hoffman &amp; Dadonov are a savings of over $9mil in real $$$
And buying out Bob still SAVES $$$ compared to what they’d be paying him overall

They’d buy him out themselves if the price to move him is gonna be that high</div></div>

I don't know Panthers ownership but most owners in small markets will rather give a pick then pay out a lot of cash for a guy to walk one year into a big contract. A year that there revenue took a huge hit with a shortened season on top of that.

Thread: Making Full Use of CBO
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jdfitz77</b></div><div>U gotta give some kind of reasoning behind the FLA trade,
bc it makes ZERO sense for them...

Why wouldn’t they just use the CBO on Bob themselves,
and get to keep Ekblad??

To get the kind of deal you’re looking to make,
you’ll have to find a team that needs to buy out 2 bad contracts
And even then...
i guarantee you aren’t getting a guy like Ekblad back
Not even close</div></div>

You do understand if a team uses the CBO they still have to pay that player right....just doesn't count against the cap. A organization like the Panthers can't afford to pay that kind of money for someone to go away.

Not saying the Leafs would get that much but I think they could get a first and a prospect
