Thread: Vancouver Canucks signed Andrei Kuzmenko (2 Years / $5,500,000 AAV)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Knuckl3s</b></div><div>Why? This team needs to move the players that have been around for some years, not their newly acquired players. Kuzmenko's trade value wasn't even that high</div></div>

Kuzmenko's ELC is probably one of if not the most valuable contract in the league thats moveable

I see it like the Brendan Hagel trade last season, his very good play along with his contract was super valuable to a cap strapped team like Tampa, obviously Kuzmenko was a UFA not an RFA so the return wouldn't be quite the same but I don't see how there isn't a huge push from many teams to get him, he definitley had good value, now he's only locked up by VAN for the years where they will still suck and sell off other pieces around him

Maybe they'll trade him still next season if he really pops off and its totally worth it to have not traded him now but this was a good chance to cash in on something you knew you had instead of gambling

Thread: The bruins want him
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dereliicte_campaign</b></div><div>Is it though?
Isn’t there a possibility that Kreicji is gone and Bergeron takes a haircut?</div></div>

Both of those things can happen and we'd still be screwed in terms of the cap, theres currently projected 21 million in cap space if the cap doesn't go up (sounds like it will though so lets say 22.5 million just as a thought exercise) Pasta is rightfully getting at least roughly 11 million, Horvat would I assume take at least 7.5 absolute minimum (very likely could get more on another team but lets just work with this), Swayman needs a contract, thats likely at least 3 million maybe 4 like Oettenger

Theres currently 6 forwards on the team extended through next year, so you have to replace a lot of the bottom 6

On top of all that the current Bergeron and Krejci contracts will have Overages attached to them for next season, which I think I read counts for 4 million against the cap unless the Bruins are well under the cap by the end of the regular season

In short, nah it aint happening
