Sujet: Trying to move up
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Blacktown</b></div><div>Very easy no from SJ. Not close. Replace Boeser with Podkolzin if you want to be serious.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>cooliny</b></div><div>Maybe something along the lines of 11OA/Podz/Raty would get the deal done. Certainly one of Carlsson/Michkov/Smith would definitely help us more than the other pieces.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Warpbox</b></div><div>Would you do Podz + Lekkerimaki + pick 11 for pick 4?</div></div>

None of that is interesting. Podkolzin has been a bust, Raty doesn’t have near the ceiling originally thought, lekkerimaki had a terrible year. None of that is interesting enough to move down 7 spots in this draft

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>bunnymcfoo</b></div><div>Friend, Patrick Marleau very much retired this year. There was a whole ass ceremony where San Jose retired his number - I was there, it was very emotional. I cried, Patty cried, Jumbo cried, the dude next to me cried. Anyway, I don't think you're gonna convince him to dip out on coaching his son in Florida, leave retirement, and move to Boston just to be a healthy scratch. It just seems a little farfetched to me.</div></div>

Look at the date of the ACGM. It was created over 2yrs ago. Eichel is being traded from Buffalo, who he obviously no longer play for. No idea why OP felt the need to post an ACGM this old.

Sujet: Reload not Rebuild
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BruinsFan212</b></div><div>Yes - the Boston Globe trade. I agree with you - if I'm Chicago, the 1st pick is just not for sale.

Curious on AZ though.... why would they decline? Their main concern is reaching the debt floor, and if you can trade the rights to a guy on his couch for 2D that would be top 4 on their team - without moving further from the debt floor, that sounds like a home run to me. No?</div></div>

Can't imagine anyone wants to be the GM "who traded Bedard"

Regarding AZ. It's simple economics. Yes, Weber is sitting on the couch, but since he's out w/ a career ending injury, his contract is 80% covered by insurance. His cap hit is $7.8m. But his actual salary the next 3 years is $1m. AZ has to pay 20% of that ($200,000). If you can only sell 4,600 tickets per game, would you rather pay Weber $200k to sit at home, or the 3 Bruins $8m to play for you. Same cap hit. Really a pretty easy decision I think.

That's why they traded for Little and Voracek too. The 3 have a cap hit of roughly $21m. But they only cost AZ about $2.5m in real money. Pretty ideal for a team with such a limited revenue stream.

Sujet: Sharks Land Carlsson and Sign Severson and an Unqualified Meier
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RV23</b></div><div>After all the grief you guys gave us! You blame us for not wanting to give you the best package after what was said on here?! You had guys stomping their feet on the ground and screaming “NEMEC” or “MERCER” or no deal like little children. I’ll just sip my tea and I’ll take three straight cups ‘25-‘27. Enjoy poverty, sucks being there for a decade.</div></div>

I can't speak for all Sharks fans, but I blame Grier. Not the Devils or their CF community. It was an awful package for Meier.

I will criticize your trades when they were Meier for Shara and a 2nd or Meier for Kuok (who I think got bought out?).
I thought criticizing was what this area of the site was for.
I said Holtz and a 1st in 2023 from the start by the way.

I'm glad you can admit it was a garbage trade now though.

Sujet: SJ Blockbuster
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RyanRox</b></div><div>Because they'd be getting two big prospects and a 1st for a guy who is expiring at the end of the year and the should be Sharks rebuilding. Meier would be one of their biggest trade chips for a rebuild.</div></div>

but a 12mil cap hit until 24-25? That's a lot.
Retaining on Reimer is no biggie, but probably would need to add a 1st to take on that much dump. Reimer is about worth a 2nd by himself and people think SJ would be looking for a 1st + very good prospect as a starting point
Meier will be a RFA that SJ could easily resign. SJ has trouble scoring, so it's hard to give up Meier even though most agree they should for the long term
People make a big deal out of the 10mil QO but realistically he'll land in the 8mil range assuming his production is the same this year
