I understand that for maybe most coaches, but AV uses all his lines at even strength. I checked on hockey reference, and his third liners get about 15 minutes a night. Fourth liners get about 10 minutes at a minimum.

After the 5-0 beat down, and the missed empty netters in game 1, I am hoping AV makes the change to bring in more offense. Price is playing at an elite level, and Frost brings creativity and scoring talent. We need as much of that as we can get, or we're not treating the Habs seriously enough.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ALitteral</b></div><div>I'd rather keep the top two lines together and tinker with the bottom six. Given that it is unlikely that they will bench Thompson, I'd like to see JVR-Grant-Jake and Pitlick-Thompson-NAK to make the most of those players' strengths.</div></div>

That's better than the current setup seen in game 1, but it also means effectively benching Frost for Thompson. Maybe I am just too high on the youth, but he showed good chemistry with G during the season. Would like to see him get his chance against Montreal.

Philly is not in the market for a top 6 forward. They also do not have the salary cap space for further acquisitions. What looks like a lot of salary space is virtually all going to the RFAs. The roster (3rd line RW and bench) will then be filled out with ELCs or close to veteran minimum salary players.

Sujet: hard D trades with PHI and VGK

Philly accepts. You will like Hagg's penchant for punishing people with clean hits, but he does get caught puck watching out of position too often. Third pair is fine. It's possible he improves upon his weaknesses and we regret it, but it's the right move from Philly's perspective and cap position right now.

IDK what fair value is for Vegas, but MTL would have the deepest set of wingers in the NHL, bar none. Arguably already do but definitely so with that trade.

P.S. I thought Domi played center and Poehling wing?

For cap reasons, that Ghost trade is not workable, never mind consideration of the value.

Sujet: Completely New Approach BOS WIN CHI Read Description

Per your description, Colorado is the best fit for Kreider. Really like the idea of him with Kadri on that 2nd line there. I don't think you're getting a 1st though b/c your cap situation is going to inhibit leverage you might otherwise have. Joe Sakic is not Jim Benning. That said, it's still a good potential move for you.

Winnipeg, I don't know how long Cheveldumboff is going to keep handing you great players, but might as well try. Ehlers would be a great get, and DeAngelo definitely has value, but if I'm WPG, I do NOT like Namestnikov as the add in. His production per AAV is too low to be seen as a value add. Strome may have more appeal to Winnipeg, as he is at least an upcoming RFA.

Yes, he will bring competitive edge and is an absolutely great guy. Love Wayne for his character, period. That said, do not expect production anywhere near a top 6. His past season was not pretty. He didn't work out in the PP specialist role with Nashville either. That last bit is troubling, as you'd like to think that element of his game should still be strong. Maybe he will bounce back there, but 5v5 he should be in your bottom 6.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Talking_Senators</b></div><div>It's actually an advantage for Ottawa to keep both Gaborik and MacArthur. Both are on IR which means insurance covers a majority (80%) of their contracts.

Good point. Wasn't considering insurance impact at all.

Ok then, GL with that defense. Maybe they also get offer sheeted by someone if they can't sign both big RFAs.

Forum: Armchair-GM26 jun 2019 à 14 h 54

Sujet: DallasPhilly fans can you answer this please________

The reason the Qualifying Offer was never tendered to Hartman was to avoid the risk of arbitration. Some RFAs have arbitration rights, other (younger) RFAs don't yet, so people overlook this difference. If you go into arb and get a result you don't like, tough cookies, it's binding on you. A team close to the cap could be messed up by that, so they avoided the qualifying offer route and let Hartman go UFA.

Sujet: Next year

Probably a playoff team, but I'm not sure about your backup goalie. Is Montembeault 'just a guy' or are your boys high on him?

Edit: You could save some money from UFA splurging on Sheahan and put it to better use on the backup goalie spot.

When Moose got back from injury, he played his heart out to keep his job. When Cam Talbot arrived via trade, Moose didn't complain. He just kept making saves. Glad for Moose.

That would be choosing to turn down $400k of real money. Can't see Melnyk doing that.

Sujet: Minor Moves Cap Grooves

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CaptJosef</b></div><div>The problem is that LITR doesn't remove the players cap hit from the teams cap total - it expands it by a certain amount (which depends on when and how it's done). It can be a real negative for trying to accumulate cap space and bonus payments.</div></div>

Thanks, I understand the LTIR mechanic is more complicated. I was purposefully keeping the explanation as simple as possible to get at the reasons for the deal; why it makes sense for both teams.

MacArthur's salary is higher than his AAV, whereas Schlemko's is lower than his AAV. Melnyk is notoriously cheap. He gets to the cap floor more efficiently, with less real money spent by making the deal, period.

Sujet: Minor Moves Cap Grooves

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sebybbq</b></div><div>Ottawa can get rid off salary they will have difficulty too reach cap floor</div></div>

You have the effect backwards. MacArthur is LTIR money; it doesn't hit the cap. Schlemko is healthy, so he hits the cap. This gets Ottawa $2.1 closer to the floor, while saving $2.95mil in real money.

Edit: Let me break it down this way so it is super clear:

Schlemko
Cap hit - $2.1
Salary/Bonus Total - $1.8

MacArthur
Cap hit - $0 (LTIR)
Salary/Bonus Total - $4.75

TY for the comment prompting me to lay it out better.

Kadri and the hefty cap dump that is Zaitsev does not get you Barrie. The additional picks were good for a laugh though.

Sujet: roster

That's an underwhelming return for Tyson Barrie. Kadri is a bonehead and on the black list for the disciplinary department. I don't see why you want him as your 2C.

Also, Bowen Byram is playing in the NHL to start the year. He's a lock.

Struggling to sign RFAs under the cap after adding veteran D and 2C that stressed our cap situation.

Sujet: (PHI/DAL) - Hartman for Pitlick

This hurts. Liked Hartman as a solid depth piece. Has some skill and can hit. Fine on the 3rd line; if he's on your 4th it's because you are stacked at wing. Doesn't disappear for long stretches out there like some other guys. Grats Dallas.

P.S. Niskanen and Braun better be worth it.
