The trades to rid Ericksson are becoming laughable. He Carrie's 6 million for TWO years and Canuck fans think they can unload him for pieces.
For 2 months they tried to unload Demko and a 2nd then it was a 3rd then it was for a future 3rd and now Demko plays well, and now it is an unproven goalie and a lower pick. Face facts, the cap is stagnant and league revenue is down. The Covid shut down has affected every team There are reports that teams are cutting back on management and other non player areas. Even if Ericksson makes less than his 6 million dollar cap hit he still cost real money for a player who is not very good any more. That means the team taking him now has to spend more to get another player who can play. With all that teams will need a sweetener that will offset the loss in revenue. Basic finance, but Canucks fans beleive take him off our hands because you have cap and we want to keep our team intact for another cup run.
I truly believe with all that is going on, Wings may stand pat and operate in their own system, build thru the draft and not take on any cap dumps to help the bottom line.
