Thread: Signing Marner After Buyout

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MitchMarnerElite </b></div><div>Well Murray has won 2 Stanley Cups as the starting goalie & is only 25. 2 bad seasons shouldn’t make him have no value. He still has elite potential.</div></div>

Not saying anything bad about Murray, but there is zero chance of that trade happening.
Not 1st pick overall value. Sorry, not at that price . Also goalies in the trade market rarely get higher than second round picks, due to the fragile psyche of the position.

Thread: MTL Back on TOP

I take it you know he would love to play for the HAbs, correct?

Any deal starts with high end prospect, Caulfield, KK, and at least one 1st and a roster palyer like Tatar or Droiun.

Thinking you are getting him for Driuon, Domi, a stiff ilike Kulak and a 1st is a pipe dream. IF they trade him they are rebuilidn and want younger not same age players.

Thread: Signing Marner After Buyout

Explain why Wings trade possibly 1st overall pick for your backup goaltender? Have you seen the goalies that will be F/A this offseason? With the cap being the same or less Wings could have their pick.

Thread: Still at 3 trades This time NshNJMTL

In Nashvilles case, scoring forwards are what they need not more defense.

They have a top 4 in Ellis, Josi, Ekholm and Fabbri, where does Trouba fit in?

Thread: Cat to Detroit

Wings ate not trading face of the team and a center for a winger. Who would be his center, Neilsson? No way.

Thread: Acquiring Prospects

Can not see Wings trading prospect for Oulers bad contract and 3rd and 4th round picks not in this year.

Sorry but Detroit says no. Bernier is the only NHL goalie in the system.

Thread: Cernak

1st cap is not going up that much. Hell it will probably stay the same or go down.

At least ten teams with cap space could beat that offer.

Thread: Outside of the box

Ok let's look at the last deal.

Backes was traded with 25% retention a 1st next year and A top prospect for Kase.

Ericksson has two years left where Backes a has one year left. So if you want a team to take on Loui for less, in a time where the cap will not go up? Wings are bad but they are not going to get better making this deal.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wqrrior</b></div><div>The wings are screwing themselves here by turning this down. Cholowski is losing value now as he has yet to claim a full spot on the roster (yes I am aware part of that is sheltering him, but in reality this was the year he was supposed to push through).
This is an unprotected first from a team whose performance is widely unknown. The two prospects were late picks in the draft who are exceeding their draft expectations. Sutter is still an NHL player and not a cap dump.
Considering there are no cap problems with DET, this is quite the waste to decline.</div></div>

1st off if a player is making over 4 million and scores 8 goals he is a marginal at best NHL player. We have guys like Suter on our team already in Neilsson, Abdelkader and Helm, we do not need another.

Like I said, Teo player on one year deals got a 1st, why would we take a guy who has two years left for exactly the same amount? The prospects are nothing great and that 1st could be anywhere from top ten to low 20's.

Lastly Cholowski is young, not sure Wings are giving up to easy, some layers it takes a little longer to get your legs in the league.If does not pan out at least we would compound the problem with two horrible contracts.

Thread: Outside of the box

Wings pass.

You just dumped over 10 million in cap on Wings next year and 6 million the following year for a 2021 1st and 2nd and two low level prospects. Neither of those players and considered top ten in Canuck system.

It cost Toronto a 1st to dump Marleau or Boston a 1st to rid themselves of Backes and both had 1 year left.

On top of all that you want to get Cholowski a former 1st round pick from Wings. Why not ask for Bertuzzi or Mantha to go with this package.
Teams rebuilding can take on bad contracts but not for nothing. And with the possibility of a lower cap why would Wings help out Vancover when they have cap space and can get a pretty penny for the a team to dump a bad contract on them.

Thread: 2020 mb dream in a kleenex

The problem with Wings deal that their is history between Yzerman and Drouin. Their time in Tampa was a real problem with Yzerman saying if you play hard you play and Drouin saying he was kept down. Drouin even walked away from his AHL team as he wanted a trade. Yzerman is not trading for him, because the issues they had in the past.

Lastly Wings have a alot of talented wingers that could be true NHLers, what they need is defensemen and that is why I doubt he trades a dman for more forwards.

Thread: I dream for Mantha

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NickC1988</b></div><div>Detroit needs to worry about a lot of other things besides getting bigger...</div></div>

That is the whole reason they would not make this deal, getting bigger and faster is the whole goal. Not smaller and for a player who is not what they need. They need a goal scorer and that what Mantha appears to be.

Thread: 81M cap and using cheap UFAs to fill the gaps

Jersey does not have cap issues and will get even more cap space when they buyout Schneider.

Subban's deal is up in one year no need to to to trade him when they could trade him next year at deadline and get aomething.

Thread: Pain

Edmonton can not absorb the cap hit, Canucks pass for again cap issues and age difference, zeeo chance Caps trade Wilson and definitely nor for that package and why would Bruins make this deal. Rask is so much better than Anderson in big games.

Thread: trade value

Because of Arizona"s cap issue and they wanting to sign Hall, they can not afford Johnnie G, plus Garland is a better cheaper option.

Thread: View Off a Ledge Hawks

Again you expect teams to take on your bad contracts and retain or give you something to take them on. Sorry but it works in reverse in the world.

Wings are not retaining on Helm to take on slower and more expensive Shaw for a 4th.

Forum: Armchair-GMWed at 11:28 am

Thread: View Off a Ledge Hawks

New Jersey clearly declines. They give up Subban who is not great but his contract is up in two years where as Seabrook's deal runs two more years past that. New Jersey is NOT in cap trouble.like the Hawks.

For this great gift the Devils move down 3 spots and Hawks move up 3/spots in 1st round.

Jersey is not going to take on horrible Seabrook deal and move back 3 spots in the 1st roinf to do so. Again they do not have cap issues so need to trade Subban, if anything Hawks should pay to rid themselves of Seabrook's contract.

Thread: First line wingers

So in essence you get Martha and give us some low grade prospects minus Juulsen and we get Alzner"s cap hit. Not a good deal for wings.
