Quoting: DifferentTages
PS It’s nice to talk trade with someone who wants to make a deal, instead of berating you on your player judgement.
It's funny because I berate people on here all the time. But they have to start with something stupid I don't just go looking for it.
Here's the thing, Montour is probably rights we would just flip. If he has value to you which it's fair that he does, then we have to find someone else to get because we care only... literally only, about moving contracts. Juolevi was being bounced around in ideas and then he just made the playoff team last night. And he should start vs Min on Sunday. The people we want to move goes like this right now.
Sutter (dump, has medium value)
Roussel (dump, has minimal value)
Baertchi (dump)
Beagle (dump, has minimal value)
Virtanen RFA rights (has reasonable value)
Stetcher RFA rights (has medium value)
Brisebois RFA rights (has minimal value)
We don't know which of out D prospects is gonna make the team next year so we're probably keeping all of those. Sautner is gone, Brisebois is gonna go.
Buf wants Virtanen, fine. We want these contracts gone. Sutter and Roussel might no trade Buf. (they have 15 team NTC's) Beagle has a 5 team NTC and Sven is open.
Lets say full thought, both 15 team players block Buf trades. which is expected.
Can we get Jake, Beagle and Sven to Buf for like a 7th? You need to resign Olofsson now and Rasmus next year so probably not. Beagle is a cheaper Sutter but kills penalties. We wouldn't pay Jake to save just the 2.2 from Sven anyway but 3 is more reasonable.
To Buf
Jake Virtanen (RFA rights)
Jay Beagle 2x 3 mil
To Van
Jean-Sebastian Dea (1x 700k)
2020 5th round pick
