<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Letter_Kenny</b></div><div>Staal won't cost 3.75 mil. Likely half that. Nielsen will be bought out. Seattle likely takes Namestnikov. Grubauer will re-sign with Colorado. Wings will re-sign Bernier. Avs gave up 2 second round picks for Toews. He won't be traded. Erne is Stevie's son so he'll be re-signed. Avs don't need Erne.

No on Murray. Go for Oleksiak. Maybe Martinez on a 2 year deal. I'd rather play Givani Smith over re-signing Gagner. No on Wennberg. Play Veleno. I can't see Glenny getting 3 mil but I don't mind re-signing him for 1-2 years.

Vrana likely gets a 4 year deal. Stevie isn't addicted to term like Holland was. See Abdelkader, Z, Mule, Helm, Ericsson, Dekeyser, Nielsen, etc. I have Hronek at 4 years/4.5 mil AAV.</div></div>

I can't see Staal getting half that, I say Detroit pays for Nielsen to go away, but that's my opinion, Colorado will be in tough to sign Grubauer with Makar and Landeskog up for new deals. Bowen Byram is good enough to play in the NHL and will force the Av's to make a move on D to allocate money as noted above. I know Yzerman loves Erne, but the Av's will need to replace Saad and Detroit needs D.

I also like Oleksiak, but with my roster I felt like him and Staal are too similar. Martinez was another option, but I prefer Murray. Gagner is a utility player that can play either center or wing, I like his versatility and the fact he's a right hand shot.

Appreciate the feedback!

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>coga16</b></div><div>and why do the avs do this? Take less than what they gave up for him?

Thats an easy no from them</div></div>

The Av's have approximately $20M in Cap Space for 2021-22, they have Erik Johnson ($6M) and Pavel Francouz ($2M) on LTIR for a total of $8M, they have to re-sign Makar ($8M+) and Ladeskog will also get a raise over the $5.6M he's currently getting. Furthermore, Bowen Byram, a LD, will need a place to play and other roster spots will need to be filled. And we haven't even mentioned Bradnon Saad' expiring deal yet.

Adam Erne was a 2nd round pick and the 2021 2nd rounder from Edmonton would make this equivalent, if not more considering Erne is an ACTUAL NHL player, than what the Av's originally gave the Islanders.
