<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bloodykisame</b></div><div>zucc was traded at the deadline while krieder retains full value at the draft until year starts. Krieder is younger and provides physicality as well as speed with high top 6 offence. Pionk is a projected low top 4 most likely a 5th, but this fits nashvilles win window and we are taking on boninos cap from this standpoint I wouldnt do it if i were nyr this doesnt help us as much as it helps you. Bonino isnt a roster player he is a cap dump. also Zucc was considerably older while krieder will be in his prime for another few years.</div></div>

Kreider is getting paid close to the same amount as Bonino, with Kreider counting $500k more to the cap. That's not how a cap dump works. If you want a cap dump, take on a contract like Turris who will be making a cool $6m for the next 5 seasons to provide even less than Bonino is. Or figure a deal for Subban where Nashville takes on lower salary in exchange for giving up picks. Because, right now, your "cap dump" situation has them losing a potential two first round picks and then some along with coming out with the higher cap hit of the players involved in the trade.

Not mentioning the fact that Kreider is going to be a UFA next offseason, so you're getting about 3/4 more of a season out of the trade. That doesn't make his value a 3rd line forward plus one guaranteed first round and one guaranteed second round pick along with another second rounder that could turn into yet another first rounder. That's just a lot to give up for someone like Kreider.

And as I said, it's nice that Pionk projects to be that, but he won't be that in Nashville. He'd sit behind Josi, Ellis, Ekholm, Subban, and Fabbro at this point, making him a 6/7 defenseman depending on who else the Preds have this season on defense. Preds don't need another body on defense, so Pionk adds no value to this trade unless they move Subban for cap reasons (which has been a prevailing rumor).

I'm not saying there isn't a deal to be made between Nashville and New York for a player like Kreider, but I am saying that it won't be for an overvaluation like this.

Also, it doesn't help me since I'm a Devils fan who also likes the Preds to some extent since I lived near Bridgestone Arena for a few years and caught a bunch of games :)
