Sujet: Red Wings Cap Weaponize
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mikearky</b></div><div>Wings not taking on Murray just to buy him out. It is not this year or next year that hurts it is year3 and 4,when Seider and Vrana need new deals and Murray will eat 2.5 million in cap when the Wings will need money to sign some of their RFA's &amp; UFA's to new contracts</div></div>

Yeah that's fair. I was dubious to the trade myself but it makes sense in any way to me. Detroit will have enough cap to resign everyone they need to resign in year 3 and 4. 2,5 mil is nothing and won't affect the resigns of our top talent. But I get where ur coming from. Had they not traded for Husso it kind of would've made sense without a buyout. Red Wings will have lots of cap still by year 3 and 4 as Hronek won't get 4,4 again and ELC players like Edvinsson, Söderblom, Cossa etc. will still be on their ELC. But it was just a hot take to gain 2 relatively high draft picks.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PredsWingsFan</b></div><div>our response here is 100% why this trade is garbage. Why would Yzerman help them free up 11.5M? There is nothing here for Detroit as you are claiming "a struggling Provorov (who underperform relative to his cap)"... Just insanity how you think this trade is actually decent in anyway for Detroit. I dont see anywhere in Yzerman's history where he has helped out a team so much. Not starting now.</div></div>

You don't think a Provorov for our LD and a 2023 1st is a good addition for Detroit? We got a glaring hole on our LD and there is no capable LD that would be good enough as a 1st LD together with Moritz. Provorov needs a change of scenery and he would get a fresh start in Detroit under Lalonde. We also need to reach the cap floor + JVR's 7 mil is only for this year. The Matt Murray trade &amp; buyout would only last 4 years and our window is 4-5 years from now. The 1st rounder would be unprotected as well. We need to stock pile draft picks and add on our LD. This trade addresses both of these issues.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Canesfan21_</b></div><div>Philly would be insanely stupid to trade their 23 1st. Bertuzzi isn’t saving them from being one of the worst teams next year.</div></div>

I agree but unfortunately for them Fletcher is their GM. Considering all their moves this offseason Fletcher consider them being in the hunt for playoffs and may then trade out a struggling Provorov (who underperform relative to his cap) and JVR and get the best player in this trade for 2.375 mil while also freeing up 11,5 mil to use in the free agency. The upcoming season is Fletcher's 4th season with Flyers as he was hired July 11 2019. He won't care about their 1st and may upgrade massively with that cap space freed up. If everything goes as planned and Torts get them under control the pick won't be an issue. If the pick is a high pick Fletcher will be in trouble anyways.
