Don't make me tap the sign...

Wow Yzerman's been busy

Another fleecing in the books.

Detroit wins the trade.

I don't think either player has much value, both were going to UFA, so there's nothing bad here for Edmonton

Wow, what is Edmonton doing? I get the need cap space but this is a steal for Detroit, I love it!

Those oilers fans really thought they could swindle a pick for Yamamoto

Yamomoto is an RFA after this year.

Edit: Both are RFA's.....

This feels like the Shayne Gostisbehere trade to Arizona from a few years back. This is a great trade for the Yzerplan

They were going to buy him out! They had til tomorrow to make a decision on buyout window. This saves 400k this season and 500k next season. Its a loss for a win later. This is the narrative all offseason when moving money



Didnt see many say that, not recently, anyways. Oilers fans just didnt want to pay to dump him. The deal is fine. It had to be done for their window.

yamamoto had zero value, and we couldn't afford kostin anyway. Fair deal in my eyes

FC???

Can't go wrong for free fiddy

Klim Kostin was great for them, would've though he'd have value.

Free 99 is the best kind of price.

Neither were worth their QO's. I don't expect either to be qualified if Detroit doesn't sign them by the deadline.

Yamamoto's an RFA next year only if he gets a $3,200,000 qualifying offer, which I don't think he will unless he has a breakout year.

As an unsigned bottom-6 forward RFA with arbitration rights who's not waivers exempt, I think Kostin is worth a 3rd-round pick at best, so this is equivalent to giving up a 3rd-round pick for a $3.1M cap dump, which not a bad price to pay. However, these guys were regulars for Edmonton so it means they now have two roster spots to fill. If they can fill them for less than $3.1M plus whatever it would have cost to sign Kostin, it's a good trade.

Yamomoto is currently under contract, and Kostin's QO is a hair above league minimum.

Edit: called you out for not doing research when I should have done more myself.

i guess you dont get it then. have you follwed trade value for winger these last few days?

Yamo value is the same as Gurianov when traded as he was dealt by Dallas except today its much tougher to move any money as opposed to the TDL. Yamo been put in every position to succeed much like Pool Party with top6 playing time. He's hasnt done much with it and has a real lack of finishing. Im a bit shocked Stevie Y did bite at such a small price with a 4th liner in Klim. Easy trade for Holland to make and they can focus on using their space for needs in the top 9 like a Connor Brown at half the price of Yamo and maybe the 4 on the right. I think we know who!

lol what. kostin QO is like league minimum, and cant he be worth even less.
