<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GenXHockey</b></div><div>It’s a fair deal but Toronto doesn’t have any interest in moving nylander.

Konecny would be a great add but I don’t see Philly being interested in futures for him.</div></div>

i THINK ULTIMATELY ITS TWO PLAYERS OF DIFFERENT skill sets, both of which bring a style the other team could use/would like. TK is grittier, nylander has the higher ceiling. The other key for TOR is the almost 1.5mil in cap savings. Essentially its replacing one top 6 forward for another, with the cap savings and good 1st rounder for TOR. Essentially its adding three players for one, two of which (TK and the 1st) should be high calibre.

Philly doesn;t move a young top 6 forward for futures, as last year was the anomaly for them and they should be right back to contender status

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SimpleMilkman</b></div><div>dont like the Bos-Phi trade from philly, and youre underpaying hart and Sandy bout a mill each.</div></div>

I see the RFA signings like this: both tanked this year, not just inconsistent or uneven, but both were poor. Hart is going from entry level to 2.5-2.8 for just 3 yrs (NJD Blackwood is a good example, he had a good year and got just 4mil) and Sanheim is getting increase from 3.2 to 3.85 but will hit UFA when contract ends. Sanheim will have made 20 mil in his first 8 yrs of pro hockey, in a flat cap, I cant see him as a 4.5+ mil dman, (larsson just got 4mil and oleksiak 4.6mil but both are far more established and coming off better/more reliable years).

As far as JVR for Debrusk, you are getting cap space, a player 7 yrs younger, and hoping for Debrusk to become the power forward of 20+ goals a year he appeared to be last year.

I think Ottawa would like a vet, especially one still in that 60-70pt range with no injury history, but dont think dandanov is a player PHI wants.

Zaitsev, whos a nice RD stay at home guy would be a better option, whos also on the hook for too many yrs and is a bit overpaid.

PHI could partner Zaitsev with rookie Cam York or Egor Zamula, or even outside chance of russian compatriot Provorov, but thats a deal PHI does.

Ellis-Savard-Zaitsev (Provorov-Sanheim-York/Zamula down left) down the right side looks good for PHI.

Im not sure Bonino is the key on 3C, I'm thinking Frost goes there, or even Laughton.

Without Bonino, and Zaitsev instead of Dandovov (with Frost on big club) that still leaves 3.3mil free, (with Braun and Morin and Riley Nash or 13th forward in press box) so maybe a better 4LW option than Bobby Ryan (which gives you 4.3mil) like an offensive speedster Mattheiu Perreault or even two-way Blake Coleman or make a trade for Ryan Reeves or Calle Jarnkrot.

Sujet: I really want Voracek to play Jimmy
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>csick</b></div><div>I would do it . Would probably take an extra piece from Ottawa but I’d still do that</div></div>

Its really the one piece of Ottawas roster (besides the youngsters), maybe add 2022 BOS 3rd.

I'll be honest and say I'm a fan of Voracek. He has no injury history, and while overpaid by a 1-2mil, he is a 60+ pt top six winger who creates. Most point producing wingers are not creators. Josh Bailey makes 5mil and I think Voracek is a step above. While Voracek is no pjsyical beast, he works the boards, can hit, and will drop the gloves when needed. Overall hes a solid bet to produce at his 60-70pt level throughout his contract.

Hes probably worth alot more than Zaitsev (who afdmittedly had a rebound yr, but is himself overpaid by a 1mil or so), and a 2nd and 3rd, but Philly could use the cap space and have the second RD they need, even if on the third pair with youngster Cam York and PK. (although outside chance the russians provorov and zaitsev might work well togwether).

So Voracek for Zaitsev, 2022 TBL 2nd and 2022 BOS 3rd.

20m+ leftover cap for additional UFA’s this offseason or next.</div></div>

Nice, a cheap option would be MacDermid to PHI for Gotisbehere (he played on RIGHT defense, over 19 mins a night, was on pace for 40+ pts, put on waivers due to roster issues), but he'd be a nice and cheap add with Souycy, and PHI probably would like the toughness

20m in leftover cap is good, but I just dont know where they get a real good 1C in UFA, I dont see one. Gourde is a great addition, but he would be my 2C, McCann 3C and jarnkrot or Geekie as 4C. The best C in UFA is Dandanault, but hes a good two way guy who's upside is probably 2C.

Maybe taking on somebody's cap issue at 1C is a way forward? Johansson from NSH, Hayes from PHI come to mind, but again those guys are probably 2Cs as well....hmmmm

Yeah, maybe.

I think Hamilton and Landeskog cost 9mil each. And Dandanault is probably 5mil, maybe even 5.5mil.

And I think they want to play some youth. Take out Savard and play Fleury with Lauzon as 7th and that defense is fairly respectable. Im not convinced of its offense, its awfully centered on Hamilton's production though, especially at Giordano's age, as Larsson/Oleksiak/Dunn/Soucy aren;t big pt producers.

While I like the bottom 6 forwards, the top 6 are weak. DOnskoi and Jarnkrot are better on 3rd line than 2nd. But a bottom 6 of Jarnkrot/Donskoi/Appleton/Tanev/McCann/Geekie/Pitlick is really good.

Dandanault is good, but is he 2C good? maybe SEA's 1st rounder goes on 2nd line and take the remaining 5mil in cap and grab a schwartz or hoffman and that 2nd line of 1st rounder/Dandanault/Hoffman-Schwartz isn;t too bad.

Overall, SEA probably needs another puck mover/pt producer (not saying this guy, but Gostisbehere or Rasmus Risto comes to mind) and they need at least one more bonafide top 6 forward in that 3.5-5.5 range (Schwartz/Hoffman/Kilhorn come to mind)

Sujet: Did Dubas Protect the Right Guy
I like Holl and he has played really well, but hes 28 yrs old with 2 seasons in NHL, offers little offensively, and is really right time/right place guy. I dont really think hes a good number 4, hes an average number 4, and might be worse than that on another team. He has exceeded expectations and has played well and at good value. But lets not get carried away, if he cost 3.5mil he'd be a disappointment.

Overall, TOR would lose a valuable player in expansion, and its very debateable whether SEA would have gone for Kerfoot over Holl, (i think they would have, no doubt in my mind. Take a look at the dmen available in front of Holl and the ones they chose (Oleksiak/Larsson/Dunn/Giordano/young guys) and compare that to the centermen). But McCann is far the better player on a good contract and more of what the team needs for depth and in their pretty meh bottom 6. Maybe Holl is more of what the team needs right now, but McCann coming off two 32+ pt seasons (better than Kerfoot) as well as the loss of Hallander and a 7th, looks plain dumb.

Mayvbe Hallander and a 7th is debateable value, but we just lost 3 assets on a (remote) chance they took Holl, which I think is poor management

Pretty diabolical return for CBS.

Anderson is on second team, with no real shot to NHL, offers not much value. AT 23 yrs old, 3 yrs as a pro and not good enough for the Devils, doesn;t show much value
Engvall offers little value, hes 25 and pretty average bottom 6 forward, (included in every Leaf proposal)

Those two together would be worth CBS 3rd probably, maybe a 2nd a best.

So is Abramov and a 2nd (at best) for two guys who have value and HALF their salary retained? 4.05mil retained is probably worth the 2nd and maybe more. Oh and a probable low 3rd 2 years away. Just because CBS took an educated risk by exposing them in expansion, doesn't mean that they don;t have value

Thats not a good offer. You might get one of those guys with that retention for that offer. More realistic is probably the low 2021 2nd and Abramov for one of those guys with retention.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sk540</b></div><div>I honestly think Risto is a player that has never been utilized right. He is not a first pairing shutdown defender, but that's how he was employed in buffalo. he can definitely chip in some points as well. I mean, it's buffalo after all, no one should be shocked. Playing on the 2nd or 3rd pairing with a defensively responsible dman perhaps can allow him to be the player everyone thought he'd be when he came into the league. With a trade like that, it's basically no risk.</div></div>

I agree. Risto hits, skates, plays big minutes and produces offensively, but he needs a steady partner who can mind the shop.

Yandle is too old and never has been a real physical specimen. With Ellis in the fold, thats enough age.

There are tons of options (even if SEA grabs Larsson). Even a Suter at 2LD, moving Sanheim to 2RD, or York to 2RD sounds good.

But we just our dealt our envisioned 2RD for a 1RD, so we need another big minute eating dman.

Personally I like a dman corp of:

Provorov-Ellis
Suter-Sanheim
York-Braun
Hagg

provorov/ellis/suter/braun can all play pk and York/Suter/Provorov/Ellis can play PP. But overall its a nice mix of size, physicality and puck movement

Sujet: Philly is back
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Boltsbeathabs</b></div><div>Yeah have you looked over the available players Seattle can very reasonably pull a VGK</div></div>

Oh definitely. For teams deep in prospects or picks and a fairly deep corp (like Philly), if they are able to lose a JVR/Ghost salary, they have the advanced prospects and forward depth to grab a singular player they want (a Gourde, a Soucy, etc...) but SEA will charge good prices.

SEA is going to get a lot of 4th-6th dmen and 7th-12th forwards, (still key players who complete a team) and will look to deal them. I think teams are a bit wiser now and will be less apt to lose youngsters while protecting BIG salaries (due to flat cap and VGS experience), thats why you see guys like Gourde, JVR, Voracek, Zucker, etc.... available
