Sujet: GM for a day
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Garak</b></div><div>I definitely wouldn't pay a 2nd for him, but I doubt SJS will have to pay a 2nd to move him. SJS is rebuilding, he is young, and his cap hit is only $3.25M. They are better off waiting and seeing if he can turn things around, rather than throwing away assets to clear space that they don't even need. If nothing else they could bury him or buyout his contract.

But if you really want to do that, CHI accepts.</div></div>

He won’t be able to turn things around. He wasn’t projected to be more than a 6/7 D coming out of school and he’s had enough NHL games now that we know what he’s going to be. I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt last season, that playing with Burns was the reason he was bad, but that isn’t the case. After 120 games of just being really really bad, I can’t imagine GMs view him as an NHLer, and definitely not a 3.3M NHLer.

If it will be less than a 2nd round pick I’ll be thrilled. But honestly because of that third year, I’m confident that’s what will be required to take his entire salary.

The buyout option has to much money for too many years on the books and burying only saved $1M. Not substantial enough of a cap savings for either.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CheechYou</b></div><div>Just to clarify, you mean that SJ's receiving a 2nd in exchange for Ferraro, correct? Because you're attaching a 2nd along with Ferraro to ship to CHI for nothing at the moment.

Also, I understand and agree with you on cutting Kunin loose, but SJ doesn't need to retain 1.35mil when they can just buy him out for 250k.</div></div>

Unfortunately I do mean providing a 2nd for Chicago to take that bad contract off of our hands. It’s a real bummer, because I love the dude, but Ferraro has arguably the worst contract on the team at -6.6M market value. I love the personality, but man is he a black whole. I think this franchise hosed him by bringing him up to early, and playing him beside Burns. He’s established a lot of very bad habits and is frequently out of position. It’s pretty easy to see that other franchises realize he’s very bad too, because opposing coaches jump their scoring lines over the boards as soon as he touches the ice. With 3 years left it will take a 2nd round pick.

I thought about the buyout, but I don’t want that extra year when I need to use the $500k cap space to bridge Eklund and Bords.
