Sujet: kiril is getting his top center
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GeneralLandro</b></div><div>Is the gap between Bratt and Kirill really that big? Big enough to give away Holtz Mercer and Nemec too?!

Bratt will also be younger and cheaper and I think there’s more points coming out of the 4 you traded away than you’re bringing in</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tbrew</b></div><div>Probably not close to this big of a gap between the two tbf</div></div>

From a pure talent and overall skillset standpoint, yes. The difference between Kaprizov and Bratt is say comparable to a Matt Barzal and Jack Hughes. Bratt is an elite player, no doubt. But Kaprizov is a franchise level player, who is just in a higher tier than Bratt.

That said, from a pure value standpoint. It's too much. NJ is decidedly overpaying here. By a rather large margin, in point of fact.

But let's be honest. It would probably take just such an overpay like this to even get Minnesota to even potentially consider it in the first place. Moving out a legitimate franchise level player of Kaprizov's caliber is extremely risky, and with all due respect to the pieces being moved here none of them have close to that same potential. And the only one here that even remotely does is Nemec, but that is far from certain.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CJ1909</b></div><div>You put him with Matthews/Marner and he certainly puts up at least Brady's points similarly how Matty T got to play with Lindholm and Johnny Hockey. I don't think he can drive a line the way the others can, but you are seeing that this year with Matty T not doing that much in FLA.

There are different types of prospects.... a power forward will not have the same "skill" as a top 10 pick, but I still do believe he is an A-tier prospect, because a prospect is still a prospect and it still seems most GMs/media/insiders consider him to be as well.</div></div>

Whut?

Matt Tkachuk is the only one doing anything in Florida this year.

He currently has 25 goals, 41 assists, for 66 points in 49 games played. For reference, he's at a 1.35 PPG pace right now.

Additionally; Knies considered ceiling, right now, is that of a 2nd-line scoring winger with a 3rd liner floor. He falls firmly into the B+ prospect category.

Sujet: Fun ideas
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>buffdaddy</b></div><div>Didn't mean to upset you. Simply looking to dump salary for MIN since they're in cap hell while also bringing back assets for a playoff push. Seems reasonable to me.</div></div>

I'm not upset, I don't expect other teams fanbases to know Minnesota's roster. Frankly, they don't care enough to know. They follow their team and that's it.

I personally prefer to know and have at least a cursory knowledge of other teams, and it's players, simply to know and understand what a team does and doesn’t need when attempting to make trades. It's at bare minimum the courteous thing to do, and stops people for jumping down your throat.

My point was simply that you didn't know, and that there are already internal options on hand for those spots. And that the trade returns are unnecessary.

And sure, you're opening up cap space after this season. But as I said, you're just blocking players that are already internal options, and taking TDL cap space away from a bigger add that could better be put to use helping Boldy. IE, a Patrick Kane or Ryan O'Reilly. Either of those players would help the Wild make a playoff push far better than either Barbashev or Acciari.

Sujet: Flyers roster after trade deadline
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DH28Hockey</b></div><div>The OP clearly thought retention was in % and not $ amount, at which point you're talking about a 3.5 AAV Center scoring at a .9 PPG pace over his past ~70 GP. Basic inference skills are not that difficult...</div></div>

Sorry, if that was the case, the poster would of...

Put the percentage sign AFTER the 50, not before it.

50% is the correct way to write it out, not %50. Dollar signs, simply and always go before a number, and percentage signs after. That's basic common grammar. Even someone who is bad at it like myself, can understand that much.

I'm not sure how someone can correctly infer anything if the original poster can't correctly write out something that basic. Because that looks like they purposefully retained fifty dollars, and not fifty percent.

Basic reading comprehension skills are not that difficult.

Sujet: Which players realistically return a 1st at deadline
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bhavikp27</b></div><div>Gavrikov was pretty good his first three years. He's younger than both Savard/Chiarot when they were traded and he's also playing top pair minutes including the highest SH TOI% among defensemen. This should make up for his lack of experience in playoffs.

Most important thing is he's 6-3, 221 lbs so good or not, that will stop some GMs.</div></div>

Which of these two defenseman would you give up a 1st for given their numbers? If available.

The fact that Gavrikov routinely gets stated as being worth a 1st and Dumba isn't, boggles my mind. Dumba has been better in every way imaginable this year.

Sujet: Horvat signing Palmieri trade futures
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HockeyIsMyPassion61</b></div><div>You can't offer Bo Horvat 8 years, Since it wasn't a sign and trade. You can only offer him 7 years.</div></div>

That is incorrect.

As long as the team trades for a player and/or their rights, and did not sign them as a UFA during FA, then they can sign them to a 8 year extension. They took on the entirety of that contract when they made the trade.

It doesn't need to be a strict sign and trade. Not in this instance. That is why GM's trade for players rights before FA hits.

The 7 year maximum contract ruling only applies if a player is signed as a UFA and coming from a different team. Since Horvat is going to be on their roster by seasons end the Isles can extend him to an 8 year contract.

Sujet: Trade Deadline
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mokumboi</b></div><div>First of all, he didn't perform the incorrect surgery, so I have no idea how that makes him anything. Secondly, there have been zero problems with the shoulder since it was correctly fixed. Thing the third, it was two separate injuries, no clue where you go three from. Finally, it's interesting how you carved five years specifically, seeing as how he was one of the most durable wingers in the entire league up until that point. So yeah, exactly none of these rationalizations = injury prone. That's simply not what it means, at all.</div></div>

2 Separate Shoulder Surgeries + 1 Broken Hand = 3 Injuries total over the last 5 years.

Only 10 games played in 2020.

And only 24 games played in 2021.

Since 2020 he's played only 144 games. Even accounting for and during the two pandemic shortened seasons he only played 34 games during those two years.

He has missed a massive amount of time in the last 3 years, he absolutely qualifies as injury prone. And at age 30 he is a extremely high-risk candidate for further issues. Whether he can stay healthy enough to stay on the ice is a legitimate concern for any GM potentially looking at trading for him or signing him long-term.
