<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Pensman69</b></div><div>This is one of the better ones I’ve seen though if you trade Rutta that opens up a world of more possibilities to solidify the D. I’d also take out the Caleb Jones signing and have Smith on the third pair and then a veteran guy to pair with him. Figure with Rutta’s cap hit gone, you’re looking at around $3m to spend at the deadline or to improve the team via trade now since the UFA market has dried up for the most part.

Also that bottom 6 looks considerably weak to my liking, I don’t think that really moves the needle that much at all in terms of depth scoring and more goals, etc. The things we are desperate for.</div></div>

I think the bottom six is going to look weak no matter what rn, that’s why I put Rust in there, that third line will low key be good cause Acciari peppers the net, Rust has great speed and ability to carry the puck, and Suter is a solid 2 way player that can score, you can also put DOC there and bank on a breakout, on the 4th Carter is gonna play cause they love him, and Ekler is a great defensive C that might open it up for Carter the other way a bit and Carter and DOC has a bit of chemistry, I like Jones a lot but wouldn’t mind Smith there, idk if there’s any RHD I like left out there that’s cheaper than Rutta, Rutta was good when healthy too, problem was staying healthy

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Garak</b></div><div>That was CHI's previous GM and it included Tampa taking back an almost $7M LTIRetired contract. Also, they still thought Johnson had value when they acquired him and he was not a cap dump, and they acquired him with the idea that CHI was still a competitive team. But, Granlund is a pure cap dump at this point, and in all likelihood won't be flippable. Paying $11M and crossing our fingers to MAYBE flip him will cost more. Idk, though. Maybe you are right, and CHI's new gm might see value in him. But I doubt it.</div></div>

Teams actually value taking on LTIR contracts like that, and for TB it was 100% a cap dump and Chi knew that too, Granlund just didn’t fit in pitt, he still put up 41 this year with a pretty abysmal 20 games with the pens and 64 last season, he could be a PP1 and top six guy on a bad team that puts up 50+ and is a trade chip if you retain a bit

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>herzausstein</b></div><div>Novak was considered to have an outside shot at being a late 1st round pick his draft year but injuries cost him. I think he has the ability to be a 50ish point C long term. His goal scoring will definitely regress some as he isnt a 20% shooting % player. He isnt great at the dot either. Id be open to trading him to be honest but we are fairly set at LHD with Josi, McD (for better or worse he isnt going anywhere), Lauzon at the NHL level. Stastney appears to be a keeper as well and should hopefully be seeing NHL time in the near future. I just dont know where we put POJ. Our NHL d group is crowded</div></div>

Ngl always forget Josi is a LHD lol, my mind automatically thinks he’s a RHD for some reason, my thought process was just maybe they move someone or someone plays their off side, plus they have a bunch of guys injured rn and Novak may be pushed down to 3C anyway, so why not get top 6 value out of him if possible off a 20% s% year, honestly feel like POJ might be worth more than him considering his age and potential

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>edeangel84</b></div><div>I’m not crazy about trading for Barbashev given the down year. If we were to sign him in the summer that’s worth a gamble. I’m just not that high on Chychrun either. I don’t get the hype.</div></div>

Chychrun is better than any LHD we have for sure, he’s very good and on a cheap deal, and since you have Smith and POJ you can afford to move one to get him and you have Pickering in the next 3 years so that lets you move another LHD then for him, but Chych is really good and a top pair guy rn with potential for more on a better team, POJ might have that potential but rn he’s a bottom 4 guy and probably settles as an ok/good second pair guy, Smith has elite offensive traits which is why I kept him, plus Chych is only like 24 so not like you give up youth at all, he just would be the best defender Letang may have ever paired with
