Die hard Rangers and Coyotes fan. Spend most of my time focusing on how the Coyotes get back to the postseason. Seattle NHL franchise will no doubt become my third favorite team.

Sujet: One Last Move for Tampa
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DiehardRedWingsFan58</b></div><div>Tell me something how does a Billionaire owner who wants to stay in Arizona have to do with being on the brink of bankruptcy? Arizona is bleeding money hence the reason why Armstrong was looking to offload Oliver Ekman-Larsson's contract plus trade basically anyone 25 and over per reports. With Kucherov out for the season i doubt JBB moves Killorn or Johnson now. if anyones get moved it might be Coburn if waives and Paquette.</div></div>

You’re right it must be serious. They did trade OEL and every player making over $3 mil and are a cap floor team.....

Seriously. Just cause you read it from Eklund one time doesn’t mean it’s true. If they were really bleeding money that bad then everyone would be gone, regardless of the return.

You’re right Tampa could trade both of those guys and get basically nothing in return. Or they could do this deal and actually get something back. There’s multiple Tampa fans in this thread now saying they like it.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Alfie11</b></div><div>I mean all he actually said was that Stepan to the Sens might happen. There was nothing but fan speculation about Anisimov or 2nd rounders (definitely nothing about Balcers), all he added was that the return for trading Stepan on could be a 2nd (which I doubt honestly, even half retained). I don't see why we'd want to give up anything extra unless Zaitsev was going the other way, Anisimov has a lower cap hit, makes less actual dollars, and was on pace for the same number of points (but far more tilted towards goals, he had 5 more goals in 21 less games). Since he'd probably only be a 4C regardless (L. Brown, White, Tierney in the top 9), dunno why we'd even want Stepan, unless we're the ones getting a pick for the extra money owed (although I don't know why we'd move Anisimov yet when we just signed Dadonov, Galchenyuk, and Zub). Confusing all around</div></div>

Stepan at the TDL could fetch a 2nd if he plays well this year. I don’t think he fetches that right now. From the Coyotes perspective Zaitsev is a non-starter because he’s on a longer term deal. If there’s a deal to be made it would need to be a one year deal coming back and roughly equivalent (though preferably less) salary in return, hence why Anisimov makes sense.

Sujet: What if
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ste_Catherine_Street</b></div><div>Let's be honest, in terms of financials for Arizona, it doesn't matter how much money is "coming off the books" next year and how much cap space they have.
The team is in a horrible position financially and they'll have their own team cap and be minimalist spenders.
I think this situation would be better, though, than them opening up their bank and signing expensive UFAs. They'd be crippled with an older and expensive team for years. Unfortunately for them, the lack of prospects they now have might drive them to do this.
Maybe in a few years they can convince Matthews to come back to the desert. I'd love that</div></div>

People seem to forget they were a cap team last year and their new ownership has committed to spend what it takes to field a winning team.....

If you read the description, I said this is unrealistic and never gonna happen. The point was more to demonstrate how much money is coming off the books.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jnowariak</b></div><div>I think you’re spot on the assessment of Dvorak as a 2C but the fact he is the 1C really throws the trade value for a loop. We will know a bunch more about Khovanov after this year and if he performs to the hype, then him and a 2nd is great value for the Coyotes. Maybe too much for the Wild to give up.

My condolences for having to deal with the dumpster fire in the desert.</div></div>

To be honest I know next to nothing about the Wild’s prospects, and my stock answer as of right now is that Dvo isn’t getting moved unless a team blows them out of the water with an offer, which I don’t think this one does (again, that might change after next season, but no one can predict the future)

To be honest I feel better about the coyotes situation than the Wild’s. At least all their money comes off the books next year and they can make a decision on whether to really tank or spend in FA.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wqrrior</b></div><div>Thanks for the feedback. I really like Dvorak. I think he's the perfect merger center for MIN to transition to Rossi being their 1C. Hard to evaluate his cost though as he is largely slept on and not many threads here target him.</div></div>

The issue with Dvo is that while he’s a solid 2C by league standards, he’s also by far the best center that the Coyotes have. So unless Hayton breaks out big time this year (fingers crossed) I don’t think the coyotes will move him at all. If Hayton explodes and the Coyotes feel they can replace Dvo through free agency next year then they’d be open to dealing him I think, but for a bit more than this deal provides.

For the record tho, this is the reason I don’t like making future year AGMs. I understand it’s all fun and games to try to predict the future, but who the hell really knows?
