Would Canes then pay a 1st round pick? Otherwise I think the value is fair

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>vikhodush</b></div><div>I don’t think that package does much for SJS.</div></div>

Inclined to agree but I think it gives them an option to turn Myers (if they retain again) into a late 2nd round pick at the TDL and then if Boeser starts scoring again is equal to a 1st or they just keep him and is a legit player for them.

The VAN 1st rounder would be available (as dumb as that is for VAN) but there would have to be draft capital coming back (I would hope).

He is that, almost exactly. Of the plethora of wingers on VAN, Beauvillier is the most similar to what you're describing.

Yea totally fair! What about Garland ($950,000 retained), 2025 2nd Rd pick + Rathbone (or Woo or Dermott or someone in that ballpark of value)?

How is it not? You said "If Brock boeser was making the league minimum he still wouldn't be worth a 1st round pick." Im saying I'd pay a 1st round pick for a 26 year-old ~55 point scorer. Therefore, its a "hard disagree, my man."

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>wojohawk</b></div><div>If the Hawks and Nucks are doing the first deal, I think it makes sense to tweak the first one a little and just do it all with the same team. Myers even post bonus should cost something because 6 million cap is not a small thing to take. It's not a first or 2nd cause the real salary is only a million and he should be flipable at the TDL, but like a 3rd or 4th which is the tweak of a slightly worst 2nd.</div></div>

Again, in this proposal, VAN is retaining 1m. So its only 5m in cap hit and 833k in actual Salary. This helps ARI/ANA/CHI too. If CHI doesn't do, it someone will. Myers isnt this immovable anchor that people think he is. If VAN is retaining on him, they do NOT need to pay someone to take him. The team that eventually acquires Myers will be doing that.

Thread: Yell at me in the comments section

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>wojohawk</b></div><div>I think the deal is combining both and dropping the 2nd to NYR 2nd for the Hawks to take the Meyers caphit after his bonus is paid. So #11, Garland, and a player to be named later (which is Myers after his bonus is paid) for #19, & #56. Hawks get a winger with some skill to play in their top 6, flip 2 picks into a better one, and have Myers they can rehab and retain on for a TDL flip. Nucks free up 10 million in cap (so they can actually add a significant piece in UFA or trade), move down 8 but still staying in the 1st and pick up a 2nd they don't have.</div></div>

This is essentially the impetus, yes.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ChiHawk</b></div><div>Yeah, but it's still doing Vancouver a favor</div></div>

I mean CHI/ARI/ANA benefit too, its a win-win situation. That's usually how trades work. The team that needs to spend more cap to get to the floor is achieving that and also acquiring an asset (in exchange for Myers). Like Tyler Myers at 2.5m is something teams would pay for. He is a solid defender just not a $6m one.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ChiHawk</b></div><div>The first trade makes sense, however, obviously Chicago isn't going to take Myers for free.</div></div>

The only problem with Myers is the contract right? Like the dude is still a #4/5 dman. If his caphit was something in the $3-4m range he would actually get an asset back. So for a team like CHI or ARI or ANA they're acquiring someone that they can get real value for if they retain again. All in all, the team acquiring Myers here would actually be adding a caphit of 2.5m to their books for whatever they get for him (2nd/3rd round pick).

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NHLfan10506</b></div><div>Alright, no worries. Maybe less retention and more futures oriented return. Get ‘em some meaningful savings.</div></div>

If you take the contract out of the equation for a second, Brock is worth a late 1st round pick (55pts in a bad year isn't bad at all). Adding in the contract, it downgrades the value but not to the level of a 3rd line center. If VAN retains on Brock then the value is back to a late 1st round pick. If VAN retain HALF then the value is higher than a late 1st. Thats how I see it anyways.

Exactly, so it doesnt save VAN any money. How much does it cost to sign Yegor? ~3m? So VAN is paying the same money now for a downgraded player.

Zero chance you're getting a 2nd for Garland, It's already been reported league wide. That GMs won't touch Garland without sweeteners being attached to him.</div></div>

LAK is pushing hard to resign, doesnt mean its a guarantee. Compher getting more money is too rich for the player that he actually is. Garland fetches a 2nd, save the tweet.

You're right, I forgot that GSAx take the goalie's health and mobility into account. My apologies, I concede my point.
