Around The League: 2016-17 Playoffs

Re: Around The League: 2013 - 2014 Season

Bob McKenzie: Buffalo's buyout of defenceman Christian Ehrhoff has been finalized. He's UFA.
 
Re: Around The League: 2013 - 2014 Season

Bob McKenzie ‏I would imagine BUF's pre-draft offer to take other teams' bad contracts, accompanied by draft pick(s) to BUF, remains in effect.

Give 'em a fourth & Brière for a 7th next year?

Good trade for both teams. A second liner for a second liner.
 
Re: Around The League: 2013 - 2014 Season

Bob McKenzie ‏Hearing PHX, which recently bought out centre Mike Ribeiro, is a possible landing spot for Gagner. Stay tuned.
 
Re: Around The League: 2013 - 2014 Season

Bob McKenzie ‏PHX gave up a draft pick to TB for Sam Gagner and B.J. Crombeen. TB clearing salary cap room.
 
Re: Around The League: 2013 - 2014 Season

That clears up a nickel under $6M cap space for Tampa Bay & Arizona gets two NHLers for virtually nothing.
 
Re: Around The League: 2013 - 2014 Season

So TB gets pretty much nothing except cap space and they lose a pretty good player in Purcel

TB must have a player they know they're getting via UfA
 
Re: Around The League: 2013 - 2014 Season

Pierre LeBrun ‏Draft pick going to Tampa in Gagner/Crombeen trade is a 6th in 2015

Well, if Purcell stays as a 36-42 point player, his $4.5M pricetag is a little expensive. If he bounces back & becomes a ~55 point player, then he's worth his contract. Maybe Tampa doesn't think he'll ever get back to his 17g 51pts or 24g 65pts seasons.

Bob McKenzie ‏@TSNBobMcKenzie 5m

TB cleared a shade more than $5.6M in salary cap space tonight by trading Purcell and Crombeen and flipping Gagner. Lots of cap room now.

Yeah, but they have nothing to show for him but a 6th rounder and cap space

It would be like MB pretty much giving away Eller
