<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BeterChiarelli</b></div><div>Considering that Ottawa is retaining on Ryan and taking on the horrendous Lucic buyout, a 3rd Round Pick, which is looking to be a late one at that, isn't much compensation when they could either a) keep playing Ryan, or b) just buy Ryan out.

If that was the 2019 2nd Round Pick, and/or there was a prospect involved, there's clearly much more incentive to make the move, but in either case, I don't know if Ottawa would want to be retaining. A pick and a prospect to free up a roster spot and still make the salary floor makes more sense to me.</div></div>

Ottawa wants out of the Ryan deal as much as Edmonton wants out of the Lucic deal. Ottawa would be doing a buyout either way so why not get a pick, even a 3rd, for it. The retaining part isnt an issue as they need to hit the floor. Buying out Lucic would amount to less money than a Ryan buyout, it's just a longer contract by 1 year.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>draft_em_sign_em_trade_em</b></div><div>Zaitsev can stay, why add to the trade with a future (pick, prospect or young star) just to save a couple million? There's other ways to save money on this roster. Ahem Mr. Nylander, by trading him you're adding future, rather than giving any way like what will happen by moving Z. Rosen and Oz as the 3rd pair (about 2 million combine). No need in re-signing Lindholm either, let all the UFA's walk, just like last summer with JVR, Bozak and Komarov.</div></div>

People need to stop trading Nylander. Hes not a problem. If the Leafs were going to trade him, they wouldn't have waited until after he was signed. His contract will be pennies in a few years anyways when the cap is 90+ anyways. Zaitsev's contract is terrible, and his play is even worse. Lindholm is a quality 4th liner that will require little money and keep the forward group pretty much fully intact.
