Maybe you guys are right. But I was looking at it in the context that Josh Anderson probably needs a change of scenery after his dismal year. We have to consider that Johnsson is only owed a total of 5m in the last 2 years of his deal. That's huge value for CBJ for potentially 20-25 goals.
Also, it appears CBJ is going to with Elvis as their future #1 as they have him signed for more money and longer term than Korpisalo. So instead of paying Korpisalo the 2.2m+ he is due this year and 3.4m next year, they only have to pay Fredrick Andersen 1m this year, and still have a pretty good tandem.
Trading Savard, who is their 2nd RHD on the in exchange for Holl saves them 2.25m as Holl can play in the bottom 4.
Adding that 2nd round pick sort of gives the CBJ a bonus pick for taking on the Ansersen cap hit for the one year. Maybe that 2nd rounder needs to be a 1st? I don't think that would be necessary to do but I dunno. Just my 2 cents here.
We have to remember that some of the smaller market teams are looking to shed real dollars owed considering the pandemic issues.
Thanks for checking out my roster and the comments, guys!
