Sujet: Good guy Sakic helps Tampa out by acquiring Tyler Johnson

"Goooood, gooood"

:squinty

Seriously though, when were the last times players with full NTC's got traded? I'm sure GM's ask often but then players say no and then we never hear about it. Maybe if we were talking about TJ getting moved out of Buffalo it would be likely, but we're talking about a guy playing in a tax-free state and enjoying the sunshine while playing on a contender.</div></div>

Nice. I am a huge Star Wars fan, but Im gonna "well actually you" that's the Emperor not Vader saying that.
The only player I can think of off the top of my head was Fleury during the Vegas expansion. A little different, but still he was asked so he could no longer be on the team.
TJ will be tough to move, but as a jets fan I would welcome him with open arms.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>tony135420</b></div><div>For one, NJ has alot young centers. Secondly, Kap, Dermott and Zacha are the same age, 23, and Kerfoot is 25. Not exactly over the hill. Kap and Kerfoot are signed to good deals for the next 2 and 3 years beyond this one, respectively. Dermott is an RFA who shouldn't cost more than 1.5M on a bridge. Severson, 25, is the main target here, obviously and is signed for 3 years beyond this year at a very good cap hit for a RHD, Zacha, 23, for 2 more year at 2,25, and he is approaching bust territory. How is this not a fair trade? 3 proven 25 and under NHL players, 2 of which are constantly improving, for 1 solid RHD and a gamble on a young C. To me this trade benefits both teams.</div></div>

I didn't say it wasn't a fair trade. I said that trading their best D doesn't make a whole lotta sense if they don't add more futures. the 3 guys you offered a good players and have value, but Severson is the best player and under a team friendly contract. If a team is rebuilding, like NJD, they'll want to get more for their best dman.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Richard88</b></div><div>"Hey Tyler, so as you know we're in a bit of a cap crunch and need to find a way to move someone so that we can give money to other guys. I know you took a pay cut to sign here with a NTC and all, and that your family loves it in Florida and don't want to move in the middle of nationwide health lockdown and riots, but I just got off the phone with Bergevin and he'd really love to have you in Montreal. You might lose 10%+ of your salary to taxes in addition to league escrow, but Bergevin says you'll get 2 minutes more icetime there than you get here in Tampa. If you're really lucky you might also get to play in the playoffs once or twice again before the end of your contract. How does that sound?"</div></div>

that's exactly how it goes

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Richard88</b></div><div>I think you're all underestimating the fact that Johnson has a full NTC. He doesn't have to waive to go anywhere, and there aren't any other contenders who can absorb $5m in capspace without sending any salary back.</div></div>

I don't think anyone is underestimating the NTC. Guys with NTC's get asked to waive them all the time. IF TJ knows he isn't wanted any longer (or isn't a priority) then I doubt he'd be like "nope...Im staying...good lucky singing those guys." It's part of the business and TJ gets that. Best thing they can do is work out exactly where he wants to go. Maybe its a contender, but lke you said few can take his salary, but maybe he's ok with DET or NJD or MTL...we don't know that.

Sujet: Cirelli Cernak taking huge bridge Trade with SJS MTL
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DomCholette</b></div><div>Sergachev &amp; Cernak wants to cash IN... MIN 3-4M each would be a great discount... ADD 5M on your CAP HELL PLEASE.
For Cirelli... one year at 1-2M is a possibility with a none disclosure deal (After JAnuary) of 6yx5M that would hit 2021-2022.
But anyway you need to clear another 5M... who? and how?</div></div>

Gotta move 2 of TJ, Gourde and Palat to fit the 3 RFA's contracts in. It's nice to think that these guys would take cheap bridge deals, but I highly doubt it and I think the signing and their to reflect that right?
No way Cirelli signs for 1-2 mill as you mentioned. THese kids need to go and get their money while they are valuable. If Cirelli is gonna be playing in the top 6 making 2 mill, I could only imagine how frustrating it would be to look over at Stamkos and Kucherov,,and be like "are these guys 7 million/year better than me?"
