Sujet: (PIT/MTL/SJS) - Granlund, Rutta, Petry, DeSmith, Légaré, 2024 1st (PIT), 2025 2nd (PIT) for Pitlick, Hoffman for Karlsson, Hamaliuk, 2026 3rd (SJS)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>draft_em_sign_em_trade_em</b></div><div>Double that retain amount would have cost the Pens T. Smith or O. Pickering, triple the retain amount and Pens would have added a conditional 2nd Rd pick (with upgrade to a 1st Rd'er)

So yes, SJS lost the trade, but the owners stood firm on not paying EK65 %25 to %33 of his salary for 4 years to play elsewhere.</div></div>

Which SJ ownership is well within their rights to do, but its not like the Sharks are going to be competitive anytime soon. So did they really need the cap space that they got 2 years down the road for retaining less?

As always, it may have just come down to dollars and cents. I agree that SJ probably "loses" this deal, but considering the bounds that Grier had to play in and how little leverage he actually had, I'd say he did alright.

Sujet: What I would do
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NDoody</b></div><div>Those numbers are true, but Vets like Copp/Compher/Chaiarot are not horribly long-term, they will help the prospects, and you could move those without to much trouble when the cap goes up and prospects are ready to take rolls.

Debrincat wants 8 years which is a different story. You absolutely would have to get him for less than Larkin, but also you take in mind deals coming like Raymond &amp; Seider. Are those guys going to be willing to deal in the 8's if they see Debincat at $8 per ? I think Stevey is smart to try and shorten the term and dollar amount. The highest I would go with him is 8 x $8, which is what the sens supposedly offered him and he wasn't interested.</div></div>

If he turned down 8 X 8 from OTT with the understanding that he'd get moved to Detroit, then yeah that's gonna be a no for me, dog. He ain't gonna get that Timo deal

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NDoody</b></div><div>From what I have seen online the best Sens could do is Berggen and Bostons 2024 1st. The hold-up is that Debrincat won't agree to the contract that Wings want to give him.
His original ask was 8 x $9M which no one is doing right now, I saw a couple of mentions the Wing's offer to him is 5 x $7M and Debrincat has refused to sign that blocking a deal that would have been done at noon EST when Zadina cleared waivers.

I understand he has a newborn and wants to make the most he can for his family but it just isn't there for him right now with the cap situation, he has to come down on his asking price.</div></div>

Bingo, but Yzerman also needs to be willing to open up his pockets a little bit. He's paying 15+ mil for Copp/Compher/Chiarot. 8-8.5 mil for a guy who would have been second on the team in goais in a DOWN year isn't totally outlandish. I think its going to be fill or kill at 8 X 8-8.25

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hollands_missing_brain</b></div><div>I won't go as far as to say he is the most overrated GM bc he has built a rather good farm system and all of his 1st rd drafts have been hitting, with the anticipation of edvinsson coming up this year and possibly Kasper. His picks don't bother me bc he was crucified for seider at the time so I'll give him benefit there. But I will admit that if you look at his recent transgressions they are not W's like previously thought. Trade for Ned was great... for all of one year. Vrana trade was great... for all of one year. Yama trade was "interesting"... for all of one day.

Don't get me started on his draft night interview claiming to still be in a rebuild. I just hope it's all camera fluff and he's doing some voodoo stuff in the background.</div></div>

Anyone who's posting on this site regularly is pretty glued in to what's going on in the hockey world right now. And not 1 person can explain what the heck the point of this was. It's absolutely perplexing. I wasn't thrilled with that draft interview either.

I know Steve has a lot of runway here, but at some point this team needs to take off.
