<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RazWild</b></div><div>Hard disagree on Reaves.

Reaves needs to stay in the lineup as much as people don't want to hear it. Kaprizov is no longer molested on a nightly basis and it remains that way because of Reaves. Simply put, Kaprizov owes his freedom of play on the ice to Reaves. Or at least the ideological thought or threat of him. It keeps opposing teams honest.

Or do you need reminding of the Doughty incident earlier this year? Or the Frederic incident last year? Without Reaves in the Lineup, opposing teams WILL try and agitate Kaprizov and get under his skin or worse, try and knock him out of the game entirely.

Even Arizona, Columbus, and Chicago attempted these gameplan routes before we acquired Reaves. Since then? Nothing, nada, zilch. He's been free to do as he pleases.

This isn't a scenario where his level of play dictates his roster spot. His M.A.D. (Mutually Assured Destruction) and implied threat, however, does.

In short, it's not about whether he's good on the ice or not. It's psychological warfare on Guerin's and Evason's part. One that's necessary.</div></div>

I agree with this until the playoffs. We saw last year with Deslauriers he provided very little in the playoffs, because its a different style of hockey.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>User123409871234</b></div><div>As a wild fan, I would love to see Dumba go for anything, which well, is probably the same reason you wouldnt want him. I think with the cap crunch the wild are about to be in with Boldy's new contract, both Hartman and Greenway are gonna have to go next year, but I could be totally wrong. I just think as the GM if you are having to make these tough decisions on anyone who is 1.5M or more, you've gotta consider who can get you the best return, especially when they aren't a true top 6 player.</div></div>

Wild have no reason to trade Hartman. With the cap issues they have, having a guy who can play center or wing and has shown the ability to score 20+ goals making only 1.7 is a huge steal for them. If you were to move him, they would still have to pay someone to be on the roster in his place so even if that player is making league minimum you're only saving $1 mil which isn't worth the drop off between Hartman and a league minimum guy. Basically 0 chance Minnesota trades Hartman.

Sujet: Wild Next Offseason
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ktownchef</b></div><div>I'm not a Sharks fan and I can tell you no team is going to trade a 2nd round pick for a guy who is making 3 million and has 6 points.

As for the Canucks trade no team is going to take on over 3 million in salary for a 4th round. The Canucks had to give up a second to dump Dickenson's 2.65 mil and we also had to take Stillman back. It cost the Flames a first to offload Monahan. The Canucks are willing to retain money but it if you want Boeser it would probably cost you a pick and Faber.</div></div>

Like I said in the description, this thread wasn't really focusing on trade returns, it was more about how the wild can make a Boeser trade work within the cap next year. But just interested what you think, how high of a pick along with Faber do you think it would take for Boeser?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AStovetop</b></div><div>Again, regardless of "who's better" why would the Sharks do this? Why would they want a non-productive winger in their late 20s when they want as many future assets as possible.
I'll also take Barabanov 100 times out of 100 over Greenway, especially with his cap hit.</div></div>

Because Greenway is a 6'6" 25 y/o Winger with 5 years of NHL experience and he plays strong defensively. He's also shown the ability to score in the past. At 3 mil AAV Greenway's contract is pretty reasonable and he could help out a rebuilding team a ton. But I guess we can agree to disagree because when you say that Barabanov is worth Greenway, a 1st and a 2nd you clearly overvalue your favorite teams players and there will be no convincing you

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>AStovetop</b></div><div>Barabanov has 25 more points and 500k less on his caphit than Greenway. How is this even close? You should be adding a 1st and a 2nd to this</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>glarson17</b></div><div>So the sharks trade a player who is on a 50 point pace and is cheaper for a more expensive player on a longer contract with 6 points? And they move up 1 round for that? Haha no</div></div>

Barabanov is also 3 years older and MUCH worse defensively. Greenway is having a down year offensively, but he still is going to have value to a lot of teams and him and David Quinn are extremely close, so if there is anyone that is going to think they make Greenway reach his offensive potential it will be Quinn.
