Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

Trade 1: Ottawa fans on capfriendly have laid the ground work for this trade. I think this trade makes some sense. Make no mistake Loui is a massive cap dump against the cap but actual money he is a played Melnuyk can stomache. His cap hit is 12 million over the next two season but his actual salary is 5 million over the next two seasons. Boeser is the best player in this trade and will be a top line player for years to come. Van gets white who is coming off a tough year but replaces Boeser on the right side although is a big downgrade. Van also gets a RHD prospect which they could use plus two picks which they need.. Ottawa has 2 other first round picks and 3 seconds so they should be okay moving two picks.

Trade 2: Two players who need a change of scenery. Buffalo is deep on RHD and weak on RW so this trade makes a lot of sense. Buffalo also has use for a 4th line Center they get a second round pick because although Beagle would fill a need on the team he is over paid.

Trade 3: Anderson is coming off a tough year and a significant injury.He seems to be on the outs in Columbus and generally on capfriendly a 2nd round pick is the asking price. Columbus could use a Center in their depth chart and get Gaudette the former Hobey Baker winner a 23 year old Center coming off a 33 point season in 59 games. I believe Gaudette carries more value than Anderson due to age and production therefore Columbus has to take on Roussel. He is a dump therefore they get a 3rd for including him in the deal.

Trade 4: Not sure how Colorado values Compher. I am a fan of his and think he would be a great 3rd line Center. Colorado obviously has Mackinnon Kadri and Newhook coming up the middle so Compher could be expendable. I think a first round pick may be fair value.. not sure what Colorado thinks... but I think it makes sense as they have cap space now but getting a player on an ELC in 2 or 3 years when they will need the money for a player who will become expendable in a year or two might work?

Trade 5: Could be to any team.. Benn is a serviceable 6/7 dman at 2 million for one more year. Whoever takes him gets a 4th and a 6th round pick

Trade 6: Can be to any team.. we’ve seen this in the past where teams give up a mid round pick in order to negotiate with a player prior (ex. Kevin Hayes last year)

This looks like a team that can compete for the cup. Also gives them over 30 million next summer to resign Pettersson, Hughes, Demko, and Juolevi

Vegas protection is 7/3/1
Pettersson, Miller, Horvat, White, Compher, Anderson, Lind
Montour, Juolevi Rafferty
Demko

Future team:

Hoglander Pettersson White
Miller Horvat Podkolzin
Ferland Compher Anderson
