I’m confused by this. We had the space for this trade (and more) even with Murray coming back no?
Maybe the biggest difference between ekholm and McCabe for the next 2 season is 4.25MM in cap hit. That's a Bunting or O'Reilly amount of coin left over.
is Holl better than Sandin?
Or vancouver still wants out of Garland and we move Kerfoot (something) for Garland at 50%Alright...so I guess we eventually look like this:
Bunting-Matthews-Marner
Jarnkrok-Tavares-Nylander
Engvall-ROR-Acciari
Kerfoot-Kampf-Lafferty
ZAR
Or if we keep ROR-JT together, like this:
Bunting-Matthews-Marner
Tavares-ROR-Nylander
Engvall-Kampf-Jarnkrok
Kerfoot-Acciari-Lafferty
ZAR
Rielly-Brodie
Gio-Lilly
McCabe-Holl
Sandin
I think I wanna see how McCabe-Brodie looks. I know Keefe and Dubas were horny about Muzzin-Brodie for many years and actually did it during last years playoffs. You could hear Keefe finishing in his pants when he was discussing it. McCabe has survived the toughs in Chicago this year.. I think he can be a nice partner for Brodie to play the toughs against some very fucking good National Hockey League teams in the playoffs. Or at least, it's worth trying. Far more important to have that go-to pair established in the playoffs vs regular season.
never seen so many picks 2-3 years away get traded. probably a trend that sticks
NBA management techniques leaking in to the NHL 5 years late as is tradition.
Lafferty has like 22 points this year or whatever 10 goals.... which will be a perfect replacement for the invisible ZAR.
