Doubt vegas was willing to trade to SJ. Also, I interpreted that tweet as suggesting VGK was looking for a 3-way, with the middle team retaining 50%

I could have also mis interpreted/ Sid may have but Sid verbally said on the air they will pay a team to take him with the retention; which is around a 2020 2nd for the team
To take him at 3.5m

And I doubt the who rival thing would happen as fleury may enjoy staying on the in the west coast

Oh hi mark.
Nice, I wonder how many people get that.

I did not. I did nooooooot

Man oh man it does make you wonder. I think DW has given full trust to his coaching staff and assistants, so Nabby and the other person who had ties to Dubnyk told DW "go get Dub" and DW made it work with 50% retained without giving up much.

But that's a mistake. At the end of the day though it's how DW has been doing things for a while.

2021 2nd, looking for a team to take 50, and a third to retain 50.

This is now how I read this.
I read MAF was heavily shopped and CAR was looking for VGK to retain 50% and toss in a high round pick.

I don't think VGK was offering. It was the ask.

This is the fact. They are looking for a middle team to eat the 3.5m for a 2nd round pick. Just like Chi-Tor-Vgk at the deadline.
