Can't see Vegas giving up Glass but maybe if they are desperate to get a C and get rid of Fleury's contract.

Vegas passes. they have cap issues and taking on more cap then what is going out is an issue.

Kuzy makes 7.8 million to MAF 7 million.

VV makes 715k to Glass's 863K so Vegas takes on 600K more in cap. My god they dressed 10 forwards and 5 defensemen last night against the Avs due to injury and cap issues. Plus they are playing for the Presidents trophy.

Face it Cap fans, Kuzy will be a hard sell with that cap number and the off ice issues.

1. Im not a caps fan, I could have just as easily made this as a Vegas thread
2. Vegas has over 5M coming off the books this summer, 800k is nothing.
3. I put in the trade "may need balancing" because this was just a concept idea that I wanted opinions on

From March through April, Kuznetsov was 20th among listed centers in even strength points, and 24th in points. Guys ahead of him include Gourde and Marchessault, because NHL.com just lists everybody at center. So he's still got #1C skills. Just needs a coach who puts him in the lineup.

Lehner and Vanecek would be solid goaltending for years. Each team has to ask whether Glass will ever get to be almost as good as Kuznetsov, and if so, whether their other guys will still be good by then.
