I would be opposed — a Myers Beaulieu trade would be fine with me but I’d need some value coming back if we are eating that whole contract, innerdivisional tax I suppose you could say

we could retain a bit, but there's no way we will be giving picks here. We already moved a 2nd to dump dickinson and that's a disaster. Myers is not negative value at a more reasonable cap hit.

I would counter with Moore (neg value) and a 4th for Myers at 1.5-2m retained.

It's an interesting one for the Canucks, Myers w/ salary retained next season becomes a really valuable asset (probably returns a 2nd/3rd), but right now Canucks would likely have to sweeten to move.

I think it would be best for ANA to save this trade for next year just in case they decide the rebuild is over, there could be some good options in FA that they would rather be paying. Would also leave the door open for a Klingberg extension/signing.

I think I agree with this overall



We have no reason to move Moore’s contract though so that doesn’t really make much sense for us

Anaheim isn't in a position that we need retention, but if you want to take John Moore and retain for a 4th, I'm not going to scoff at it. That leaves us more room for a potential Klingberg deal. Drysdale is going to get a cheap, short term bridge since he got hurt this year, it'll give him another season or two to prove himself for a better deal, so we won't run into any cap issues.



Dude, I just can't see my guy hurt anymore. I knew this season was going to be rough but holy ****, I didn't think we were going to be brutalizing our goalies. I almost want to trade Gibson somehwere competitive just so to end his suffering. If it costs a mid round pick to get Gibson some help, the send the pick. We have a lot of good draft capital, and we still have a well stocked prospect pool, I could give a damn if the 23 4th turns into the next Troy Terry, that'll be 5 years from now, and we would get help for the next two years from Myers, and maybe he sticks around for a bit after his current contract, so long as he bulldozes the crease, I don't care if we loose the trade.
