Sujet: Montreal Canadiens signed Joel Edmundson (4 Years / $3,500,000 AAV)
Oh no baby what you doin'?
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">It would be a mistake for Montreal give Joel Edmunson a roster spot, let alone a non-trivial contract. His profile (good PK, good shot (and therefore some points) while hurting his team badly at 5v5) is the kind of net-negative player who some teams love to get fooled by. <a href="https://t.co/T7SCfFoYXZ">pic.twitter.com/T7SCfFoYXZ</a></p>&mdash; Micah Blake McCurdy (@IneffectiveMath) <a href="https://twitter.com/IneffectiveMath/status/1305547560254353409?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 14, 2020</a></blockquote>

Sujet: Wash Trade
Bowey for Carrick makes it imperative that the Caps sign Green or Carlson, for each of whom they have greater than 1/15 odds, but who knows. Trading away McElhinney just after his 35th birthday makes sense... for Toronto... I don't see the Caps getting too excited about this trade, but I love that you picked up on my short term for long term cap dump of 1 year of Orpik for 2 years of Martin, where each team gets someone who hits somebody each period of every game. Five stars for keeping a conversation going.

Orpik for Martin here looks like it helps the leafs clear cap space next year for Matthews, Marner, Leivo, Kapanen, and Sparks' new contracts.

Of course, if Sparks plays really well next year in the AHL, he'll still cost under a million the year after, when all those other huge contracts go into effect, so there might be more to be said for keeping McElhinney, in order to extend Sparks cheaply in summer '19. If 35 is too old, trade for Grubauer and offer him a cheap one or two year contract...

The Caps motivation for the beginning of this trade is to create cap space and keep Carlson. If they lose Carlson, and miss out on Green, they end up needing Bowey's potential offense next year. But then they also end up needing someone who eats a ton of minutes. Any chance they land Zaitsev, maybe in a three way trade, by giving up rights to Grubauer or Carlson?
