Thread: TDL - supposing Patrick does return
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hammerwise</b></div><div>If Patrick was still out injured, getting carter for 3rd line center would be a good option.

Lyon is a solid AHL goalie and Vorobyev a nice prospect, who could be a NHL 4th liner, although iffy at best. Hagg, in my opinion is a real solid 3rd pairing guy. He hits, plays solid defense and is pretty solid with the puck, (20 pts in 80 games last year as a 3rd pairing guy is more than respectable), even in limited time this year, hes on a .25 pts a game clip, which is very good considering the role he plays. Hes big, young, clears the crease and takes the body. Carter for Hagg straight up is a pretty solid trade for LA, IMO.

The truth is, that deal does not work for the simple cap mathematics, that you have only 19 skaters, and you're in poor shape for the next year. Something more like carter and ________ for JVR is probably more likely salary wise.</div></div>

I know it was a little of an overpay for Carter, but I don't think Lyon, Vorobyev, or Haag are going to be signed in the summer (Haag may be depending on movement at TDL or over the summer). As to the 19 players, my understanding that once the TDL passes, the cap punishments go out the window. Therefore you can call up a 7th defenseman and another forward if you wish. This is strictly a TDL deal and on paper they would be short handed.

Thread: How lines will work Post Return of Patrick
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Skyraider112</b></div><div>Arizona has no cap space and has one of the best goalie tandems in the league. Dont just trade your garbage to teams that dont want it</div></div>

I said it could be any team that needs a veteran goalie. I just picked AZ because they were the first on the screen. I haven't paid attention to what every one's situation is with injuries and such. He has a small cap number and someone that needs a steady presence in the locker room.

Personally, I do not understand the Braun and Nisky trades which put the Flyers back in a mini cap hell when you include all the retained money, the Hayes deal, the Konecny deal (which I like), and the Provy deal (which I also like). They came into this season with over $20M in space and they pissed it all away.
