<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jets12Kozy</b></div><div>McAvoy is as good or better than fox in pretty much every area, fox gets massive pp involvement aswell as ozone starts, boosting point totals.</div></div>

If we want to create disingenuous narratives, I’ll play. Boston doesn’t trust McAvoy with O zone starts or PP involvement, so he’s worse

A second is reasonable. I’ve most recently seen Hawks fans asking for a 1st, Niemela, and Minten

Thread: Cap You know who you are

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>vikhodush</b></div><div>Right, that’s what I was asking. Assume we’re talking ANA or ARI? Maybe SJS?

I don’t think any of them have incentive to do the deal without a big return either since they’d all be conscious of taking on 6M real dollars while in a rebuild and some of them having budgetary constraints. It can be sold to an owner still in that circumstance, but you better have something strong to show for it and a third rounder ain’t it.</div></div>

Idk what your fixation on a third rounder is. I didn’t say that anywhere lol

No I was just indicating chicago was not the only possible place for him to go, which we all know is true except a lot of hawks fans on here expecting massive returns

Thread: Leafs

Peeke is a HUGE downgrade on Brodie. Not worth it for the cheaper contract. Furthermore, that is a god awful trade for the Leafs. An F- if they made it
Vladar being the second goalie puts way too much pressure on Woll to be our number 1 guy imo. I don’t like that move.
Nylander for Wright is something I’m on board with but Tanev coming along with him, I’d rather someone else I don’t know the logic on that one given his contract. I’d rather more picks and keeping Brodie.

Thread: Cap You know who you are

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>vikhodush</b></div><div>Who would it be then? Not trying to pick a fight but there’s a limited amount of teams that would do this based on cap, budgetary constraints for smaller markets with cap room, etc. A third rounder isn’t incentive to take Murray on. There are other options available such as a buyout but to think another owner/gm is just gonna bail you out with real dollars at stake without using their leverage to get a maximum return is delusional.</div></div>

Thread: Top 10s

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NHLfan10506</b></div><div>80-point, Selke runner up, captain…Hischier has made a strong a case as any for #6.

McAvoy is more versatile than Fox. If a team deployed him in more offensive role, he’d match the point totals (and Norris votes). A lot like Josi In that respect. Both studs.</div></div>

I understand the desire to say if this if that, but the reality is that the Bruins haven’t deployed McAvoy that way. Until he is, I’m not rating based on speculation against a guy that is deployed that way and has the trophies. As for Hischier, there were 38 players last season with at least a point per game. 80 points is not as impressive a total as it used to be. Top 10, but I’m taking some of the guys below him first, there’s stronger cases

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>wojohawk</b></div><div>For the Hawks to bite on 6 million real dollars with Murray it is going to take every bit of a 1st or something around one of Minten/Niemela with a decent pick (2nd-4th) attached to them.

Brodie is a top 3 defensive defenceman in the league by most analytics. How you people have convinced yourselves he’s terrible is beyond me

Do one yourself and see. Muzzin LTIR and Murray trade leaves enough cap space to sign Samsonov. You’re just delusional and hate your own team. Get a grip

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>Sure looks like the Leafs are going to have to buy out Murray and Brodie this year (cap hit of 687,000) but 24/25 it's a cap hit of 5.2m. I don't see them retaining both Matthews and Nylander for 24/25.</div></div>

You’re insane if you think the Leafs are buying out Brodie. Muzzin on LTIR and a trade or buyout of Murray puts them multiple millions under the cap. I can’t believe how many Leafs fans hope for their own team to fail

Thread: The Nylander problem

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>palhal</b></div><div>So, do you think it makes sense of Seattle??? Or do you miss the part where the Leafs tell/ask Nylander, "We want your sorry ass out of town, so negotiate an extension with Seattle, so we can trade you. Now you don't come to an agreement with the Kraken, you welcome back to the Leafs on a Cup run."
Very, very few sign and trades are made by a contending team with a year left on a keys players contract. Can you think of one?</div></div>

Yeah it’s definitely problematic at 8 years. The good news is that the cap would likely be around 115M then, and it’s also not a 35+ contract so if he retires before then, the contract just goes away.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NHLfan10506</b></div><div>We are? I feel like this is most likely reason why we would not entertain a Hellebuyck move. Especially since he wants 8 years.</div></div>

Term is definitely scary. I’m sure he could maybe be negotiated down too. But you guys have your core locked up on really good contracts and the cap is on the verge of going up by significant amounts each season. By the time guys like Holtz, Hughes, and Nemec need extensions there will be enough cap room to accommodate

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pretzelcoatl</b></div><div>Hatakka is a nothing piece, and we need to keep Miller. Using Kuemper as a comp, the trade is fine without them, but I would not be happy giving Hellebuyck the contract he's asking for.</div></div>

I think the contract extension is really interesting.
Pros: Vezina winner. Consistency, which in my opinion is the most important attribute of a goalie. Elite
Cons: 9.5M is a lot of money. It could age really badly in a few years a la Bobrovsky

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pretzelcoatl</b></div><div>Miller and Hatakka have no value so there's no reason to trade them, especially Miller who we acquired so Nemec could stay in the minors if he's not ready.

You forgot to sign Bahl, and you're going to lose Foote and Thompson to waivers

Smith and Lazar should definitely not be roster regulars. They should be healthy scratches most nights.</div></div>

This wasn’t meant to be a complete ACGM, so I didn’t bother with singing RFAs. Similarity, not familiar with the bottom of the roster. Mostly just about the Hellebuyck trade
