<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>WALaxer19</b></div><div>From Chicago's point of view, it would probably have to be five years, because otherwise the compensation would go up. For example, if the same cap hit was for 7 years, it would mean the offer sheet cap hit would be $10.85 million, which would result in four first round picks. The Hawks could bump it to $8 million/year for 5 years and still be at the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd round pick compensation level. Would Winnipeg pass on an $8 million cap hit?</div></div>

Def gets it closer to the pass territory. If not pass it'd make it hard for WPG to be able to keep Buff and Wheeler and likely need to move one or both if they did want to match (which I assume they'd do).

Only real issues are a) Offer sheets are rarely if ever signed and b) CHI likely wouldn't do that to WPG with the Bowman-Chevy history.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BiscuitBakesandHotTaeks</b></div><div>Please WPG fans...
you are not getting the 10OA pick for Myers, even with spare parts included.
1. He has 1 year left. Even if there is “an extension” he’s not taking a pay cut from his 5.5M salary. EDM would be better off cutting cap elsewhere and going after Carlson and saving 10OA
2. You basically need to get rid of him... everyone knows that WPG is in a cap crunch. You aren’t getting “full price” because other GMs will call your bluff
3. Myers has been an inconsistent player and managed to shine as a 4/5th D on a good team. What team would move 10OA for that?

You might be able to get a lottery protected 2019 1st and a B prospect plus a late pick. 10OA in a deep draft? No way.
EDM is better off trading up for Bouchard.</div></div>

You guys should have likely fired Chiarelli if that's the kind of rational radical thinking you were after! Realistically I think this deal is something he'd bite on fast based on his comments in interviews

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>arafay</b></div><div>No 5 is adequate
Pay him 5-5.5 for full 8 years and you wont regret it. Bridge him and you will</div></div>

exactly. What's an extra 1.75M per when you'd get him an additional 4-5 years at that price!

Morrisey is a shutdown guy with an offensive side. To also suggest he only looks good next to Trouba is wrong as he played all last year next to Buff and looked just fine even making up for a lot of Buffs bad pinches etc.
Morriseys trajectory has gone nothing but up so to bridge him would be foolish because yeh, you'd save 1.75M per for 3 years, but if that path continues you'll be spending 2-4M per when you'll need that CAP space the most (Laine, Connor, Ros, Wheeler all due in the next year)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Meeces</b></div><div>1. Sorry are you Tavares? You know exactly what he wants and where hes going to end up? You're just like everyone else who watches hockey you don't know **** about where hes going, only he knows for sure so this point is completely invalid.

2. The cap is projected to be 80-85m I set it at 80m and if it only rises to 80m then either Grabner can not be signed or Pominville can be traded. Its not that hard to find a solution to that so idk why you're acting so clueless.

3. See #2

4. Carter Hutton led the league in save % on a team that didnt even make the playoffs.

Do some research before you make yourself look like a complete idiot lol.</div></div>

I wrote a whole column debating you further and instead just deleted it to say that I like Carter Hutton but he's not a starter at 32 and isn't going to be one despite his excellent numbers. He played on much better defensive teams than BUF and the one issue this team didn't address is defense with the exception of adding another offensive D and a very good play driving C. Also I don't know what research you'd have liked me to do to "seem like less of an idiot" because it's clear you did none yourself with regards to how bonues, and the CAP works as well as roster management
