Sujet: Cap space for trade deadline
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Alex07</b></div><div>And also, Montreal would NEVER give up a first just to get rid of Byron's contract. You don't know Bergevin at all if you think that it's going to happen in real life.</div></div>

Then you keep him. Tampa is likely going to have to pay at least a 1st to get rid of Tyler Johnson. Very useful player but another 3 years at 5m is brutal for what he brings. It’s the exact same with Byron. He can be a useful player but 2 years at 3.4m is brutal as well.

Ottawa took a one year 3.4m cap dump from Tampa last year in Paquette and Coburn. Tampa paid them a 2nd (and took back two ltir contracts). You’re sending 3.4m twice. The baseline should be two 2nds. A late 1st is close to equal value to two 2nds and I agree with OP that a 1st would get someone interested.

But again, if you’re not willing to pay the going price then you keep him and his bloated contract.

A 3rd would definitely not be enough because we're not interested in taking on cap dumps, especially that don't fill a position of need. We have Nick Paul and Alex Formenton for LWers in our bottom six, both of whom fit our timeline, both of whom are good on the PK, and Formenton is faster than Byron. There's a good chance that if Byron was simply added to the Sens roster today, he wouldn't crack the lineup. We probably don't even do it for a late 1st because our owner isn't the type to spend more money than he has to on essentially buying a draft pick. At least it's slightly more intriguing than a 2nd, but given that nobody knows how good any of these players are because most of them have hardly played this season, a late 1st isn't that intriguing.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ds16</b></div><div>Lol yeah his value is really difficult to gauge. I knew I’d get a comment or 2 on that. What would you have in a Kuznetsov deal?</div></div>

For a kuznetsov trade to be worth it for the caps they would need either complete futures with no retention so they could spend the money on someone like hamilton or someone who could plausibly play 2c. Obviously it is understandable that not many teams would give those up for kuzy which is why i think no trade will happen ultimately. I think the most likely trade is something like kuzy for monahan straight up where two teams that at least are perceived as needing to shake up their cores make a swap with one another.

The habs don't really have that guy -- i think the closest would honestly be kotkaniemi. As for straight futures, the value you have is probably a tiny bit low, i.e. one first instead of a second and fourth, but only if there is no salary retention. It cost the caps basically a first rounder to dump 2.75 x 3 worth of cap in Panik at the deadline which is equivalent to what the caps would retain in this scenario.

*Edit*
Forgot to mention that I dont really know anything about Struble and Poehling but from looking at hockeyreference for 30 seconds they both seem like B level prospects?
