Thread: Dalla

Can you explain your rationale in here, because Bishop is on LTIR and he's likely that for good, and neither Holtby or Dobby carry negative value...

Thread: Tatar to Avs

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NMAvsFan</b></div><div>The point is that Tatar may not want to sign with NJ in their present state. They also may not want to give term. If I'm Tatar, if I'm being forced to go short-term, I'd rather sign with a contender for a little less.</div></div>

Probably, but if NJ is in the sweepstakes as they're reportedly after a goal scorer, why would they help Avs landing the guy they might be targeting too?

Thread: Toffoli for Jost

No chance Habs take it. Toffoli was their top scorer last year and plays under a very fair contract.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OrganizedConfusion55</b></div><div>This is exactly the type of trade the sharks are known for, and something the sabres need to do. Works for both parties.</div></div>

And they almost always end up in failure.

I think they learned from the EK trade that they should not be trading their top prospects unless they're at the top of the competition. Currently they're far from that.

Can't see BUF doing it. And probably the same goes for SJ too.

With NJ money is not going to be an issue.

Just wondering why would NJ settle for paying for weaker assets if they had a better one available for free...

Do I hate the burden on cap yes,but good riddance to both. Also suter had a 1st in line door to the owner to complain, and changes were needed</div></div>

Lmao wtf if that is true why didn't Wild complain to the league and get those contracts voided if they didn't follow the leagues own rules on the following topic? Given one of their players is a main figure of the NDA they would've been more or less forced to act under the pressure of public opinion...

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Amakoue</b></div><div>No it was suter and Parise were lockerroom problems. Guerin when asked recently smiled and said emphatically he has zero regrets buying out suter</div></div>

Well for what it's worth Guerin has now destroyed the very core of the Wild. We'll see what happens, but his decisions has certainly raised a lot of questions. And now for the next three years they need to create a competing team with much, much smaller budget than others.

He might smile now, but he also might've shot himself in the foot big time here. Time will tell.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CD282</b></div><div>Everyone doesn't disagree with me, that's your take. And basing your judgement of a player on 1.5 good weeks is very, very childish.</div></div>

You're the first guy I've seen on this site who prefers Koskinen over Korpisalo with that contract. And even the professional journalists disagree with the notion. No one (except you apparently) thinks CBJ has to pay to move Korpisalo, but literally everyone thinks EDM must pay to move Koskinen somewhere else.

If he was cheaper, the discussion would be different. But this is a business, and contracts matter, usually more than the actual performance does.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>villenash</b></div><div>Sure, but I'd rather have Suter playing than a league minimum guy -- even at his age, Suter is effective. The Parise buyout made sense, I just think they could've waited on Suter.</div></div>

I think they wanted to make sure they could protect 7-3-1 in ExD so they had to buyout both, but I agree with you they should've kept him.

At least that would've prevented Stars from signing him to a 4 year deal...f*cking Nill.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>villenash</b></div><div>I don't think Gourde is the center that this team needs -- and he's not cheap.

But man, those Parise + Suter buyouts are going to kill this team from '22-'25 -- I just don't see how they're gonna put up a competitive team with around $14m in dead cap space.</div></div>

I mean their situation can basically be interpreted like they'd have to play like they had these two players in their roster but without them actually being there. In theory they could replace their empty slots with league minimum contracts.

Devils is not the team you can make serious offer sheet threat due to their amount of cap space. They'll easily match.

I mean it's obvious that one playoff run seriously upgraded people's view on Korpisalo, but calling everyone stupid because they disagree with you is very, very childish.

Well according to Rishaug CBJ requires Koskinen+Samorukov+1st and Holland is contemplating it. That falls to an overpayment category if you ask me.

Thread: TRADE COUTS NOW

Statistically speaking Couturier is very much comparable to Bergeron. Or at the very least, I can't think of any younger player in the league that'd be more comparable to Bergeron than Couturier is. Only Barkov comes close.

Bergeron's offensive stats get inflated by the fact he plays with two of the best scoring wingers in the league. Sure, all players in that BOS top line complement each other, but the likes of Couturier or Barkov are not enjoying such help from their respective linemates.

Point is, if you're afraid to pay him because he's a step down from Bergeron, you don't deserve a player close to Bergeron in general. He's pretty much elite on his own right, and being a step down from Bergeron doesn't mean he's bad in any way.
