Sujet: trading our first to jackets
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>First, no one is going to want to acquire Tyler Myers and his $5 million signing bonus payable on July 1, so he can't be included in this trade, but there are teams who will take him with an incentive after July 2.

Second, what is Nils Hoglander doing in this deal? Columbus will be THRILLED to move the LA pick to tenth overall. (And you DO know that if you lose your last game and Detroit and Washington win theirs, the pick becomes number 8, don't you?)

Third, this might make sense if you were getting Andrew Peeke and a very good prospect (i.e., a youngster with real potential), but both Roslovic and Boqvist are iffy (Roslovic because, as you've already pointed out, he's a rental, and Boqvist because of his injury history). Even then, this is indeed a "no-brainer" for Columbus, but a dubious action for a team that was so far out of the playoffs this season.</div></div>

Myers' signing bonus is paid on 15 Sep, not 1 July

Sujet: Another Attempt at a Framework
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bogdown</b></div><div>I really like the look of that bottom six, but I do think that Ethan Bear has been a tremendous acquisition and a good fit for this team going forward. Getting a guy like Bear, who still has the potential and the years to break out before his prime, on a relatively cheap deal with term is an investment I am willing to take for the team. I project a Siegenthaler like emergence from Bear under Foote and Gonchar, especially playing alongside Hughes. He looks like a good one. I still think that it would be best not to trade Schenn, but I do think we need a RHD for the next 4 years until Reinbacher or Sandin Pellikka are ready. It would be foolish for us not to take one of them with one of our firsts.</div></div>

We would have the cap space to keep Bear with that lineup, but I just can't see him becoming a real top 4 Dman. He is not really a shutdown D, not really a puckmoving D, not really physical presence, etc. But I guess if we have the cap space, then no need to let him go
