Thread: Washington Capitals signed Nicklas Bäckström (5 Years / $9,200,000 AAV)

I'm gonna be in the minority and say it's a good deal. With a new TV deal and the cap implications the CH shouldn't be terrible and Nicky's playstyle is pretty solid for aging well.

Uhhhh, you know that his first Leafs contract was signed by Nonis, right? He might just be an alright depth d? lmao

Filler for the Marlies and a callup that probably gets through waivers. Yawn.

I <em>literally</em> said that imo drafting big tough meanies on high picks is bad. Hindsight is different.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>hard to call these guys "busts" One is a second round pick with about a 25% chance of developing into an NHL player.
The other is a late round 1st, You take out the top of the draft and those 1st round picks are at like 40% chance to be an NHL player.

Both had uphill climbs to be NHL players.</div></div>

They could've had Theodore, Hartman or Dickinson instead of McCarron lmfao, stop giving management excuses when they go for the big tough meanies.

What a blockbuster. Two overhyped high pick busts for each other. Wowzers.

Thread: best/worst trades of the decade...

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ab33champ</b></div><div>I’ll have to disagree on the Schenn part. 2 years of him at a fair price were well worth the cost considering Armstrong was able to offload the worst contract he’s ever given. Plus, you said it yourself, he’s a major part of them getting the cup. That kind of ends the discussion.</div></div>

I know the draft is a crapshoot, but the players the Flyers got with the picks is, uh, quite something. Also I've got a really bad feeling about the new contract Schenn got, could regress to an albatross in the first half of it.

Thread: Buffalo Sabres signed Dalton Smith (1 Year / $700,000 AAV)

I'm trying to come up with a good reason they'd do this. Maybe rewarding an AHL plug they've liked because they have a ton of roster spots and some cap space?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ab33champ</b></div><div>Just a simple blues fan here so I won’t try to comment on all these, but two questions:
Which of the Bishop trades would you say worked out? And

1. The trade where his rights were traded to Dallas
2. Yes, absolutely. It's one of the parts that got them the cup, but I'm still not a fan of the trade.

Thread: best/worst trades of the decade...

All of these have probably already been said, but the list of bad trades is pretty amazing:

Hall for Larsson
Reinhart for picks that turned into Barzal and Beauvillier
Eaves for a 1st
Seguin to Dallas
Eberle for Strome
The Matt Duchene/Kyle Turris disaster
ROR to St. Louis
Lucic to LA
Both Jeff Carter trades
JVR for Luke Schenn
3 of the 4 Ben Bishop trades
Both Nino Niederreiter trades
Bobby Ryan to Ottawa
Legwand and Lehner for a 1st
Jultz for a 3rd
Hanzal to Minny
Reaves and a 2nd for Sundqvist and a 1st
Schenn for Lehterä and picks(yes they won the cup but jesus christ)
Saad for Panarin
Hoffman to Florida via San Jose

Thread: Columbus Blue Jackets signed Zachary Werenski (3 Years / $5,000,000 AAV)

Okay, so this is like the deal that Roman Josi signed at age 23, except this is both team- and player-friendly instead of robbing the player for team benefit. 5M is pretty low for an excellent offensive dman who sucks in his own end, but it's only for 3 years, meaning he can still get paid for his prime.

None of those guys are signed to 1x1,75.

This guy is literally 2 seasons removed from being a legit top-pairing guy and a good one, rest of the league passes and he falls to... Tampa. Because of course he does.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>rangersandislesfan</b></div><div>Really, though, Tampa could've put Callahan on LTIR and they take more cap instead. Yes, they get Condon but he still has a cap hit.</div></div>

They can probably flip Condon to a team that could use a backup and has cap space(Kings?) and clearing out the space is always preferable to getting LTIR relief, it allows for more flexibility.

Eugene takes on a big cap hit that will probably just be LTIR'd and paid by insurance. God bless the penny-pinching hellhole that is Ottawa if you're any of the 30 other teams.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>injury call up?
Honestly, he's too small to play 4th line. He can't grind and he's not really great defensively.
He's not going to win a top 6 spot that's for sure.
I don't get the what to do about this signing. It's a very meh signing.</div></div>

Yeah because Tyler Ennis was a bad 4th liner while being a *checks notes* speedy 175cm scorer.

He's... eh? I mean, this is probably 100% AHL move, can't see a way he works his way to the NHL unless like everyone gets injured.

The money is reasonable, but still a bit high. AND FOR 7 YEARS?! NHL GMs must be masochists since they keep shooting themselves in the foot. Anyone who thinks this is good has played way too much GM mode.

I don't know if essentially paying Neal 6,5 is a win but at least his production potential should be better? I guess? Iffy at best deal for both sides.
