<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jacketsman61</b></div><div>I know we are not trading for Nylander. I mean, come on. But as far as Elvis goes, the cap hit per se is not the real problem, it is the roster spot he occupies. But coupling that with the cap hit Elvis makes no sense here anymore.</div></div>

again, if we NEED to get him out of the locker room or we NEED to get another goaltender on the roster, we can bury his cap hit by sending him to cleveland or back to europe if he wishes. this would require waivers, where if someone claims him then our problem is completely solved. otherwise, he gets to go play huge minutes somewhere and wait to be traded to someone that needs a tendie. reduces his cap hit by a million and frees up the roster spot. we're not near the contracts limit so there's no concern there.

like squash said - we're not paying to get rid of him. and that includes a buyout that lasts 6 seasons.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CaseyFlyman</b></div><div>If he tops out as a good 2nd-liner that <em>could </em>play on the top line...that's kind of exactly what we already have.</div></div>

god you're right on target here. every time i do anything future with this team i just get frustrated at how stupid all the forwards are. they're all *just* good! and there's two more coming! like what's the most likely NHL outcome for dumais? good second liner that <em>could</em> play on the top line. and he's not even here yet! brindley probably second or third liner! why are none of you just elite top liners!!!!!!!

blue liners tho? no notes. not only will werenski probably play at a #1D level for 6 more years, but we also have a clear spot available for mateychuk to slot into and jiricek will be a top pair worthy RHD. so peaceful.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>hockeynutter</b></div><div>If lines days look to be over for Columbus, I would be all over this deal. Its a great cap clearing deal for Columbus and gives Chicago with a winger for Bedard. May not would put great but Chicago is still rebuilding. Giving wingers while you have the cap space when rebuilding for a middle pick is smart.

If Columbus because a stickler for more then Chicago can look at a low end prospect to send back and add a condition hat pick is upgrade to a 2nd rounder if they surprise and make playoffs.</div></div>

laine loves columbus and has tight connections in the locker room. we're not gonna move him for just a third. we don't have a lack of cap space and will have no need to just dump laine before his deal is up - it conveniently ends the summer that fantilli, jiricek, mateychuk, and dumais all need deals. plenty of space in the mean time especially with peeke out unretained and provorov likely gone sooner than later. everything about the situation lends to us sticking with him or getting fair value for him.
