I pondered it too. We take on an extra million of cap, but we get our goalie. And, Vegas gets a shutdown 4th liner. Over-all, it kinda works. But it's not a great deal for either team. Still, getting rid of Loui frees up $6, and a back-up was going to be $2-3. So, this does save us some cap space.Todd Bersnoozi wrote: ↑Wed Sep 09, 2020 11:24 pm I've got it.

M.A. Fleury
It'll be tuff to move on from Marky, but we gotta do what we got to do. A tandem of Fleury & Demko is not bad, whoever is hot will play. Fleury may have to waive any no movement clauses he may have, we'll have to expose him in the xpansion draft.

My bad, in my proposal of running with miller as a center I’d want them playing equal minutes with whoever is hot that game getting a little extra, vegas style.Doyle Hargraves wrote: ↑Thu Sep 10, 2020 1:31 pm Yeah no sorry Dickie Dee. Chef has bagged on Horvat for four years +. He hates the kid.

I’d agree with this if we had more quality forwards. Right now, Virtanen, Toffoli and Leivo are all question marks for various reasons next year.Richardstroker69 wrote: ↑Thu Sep 10, 2020 1:58 pmMy bad, in my proposal of running with miller as a center I’d want them playing equal minutes with whoever is hot that game getting a little extra, vegas style.Doyle Hargraves wrote: ↑Thu Sep 10, 2020 1:31 pm Yeah no sorry Dickie Dee.

The Chef loathes Horvat. I thought everyone knew that.

If Vegas wants to dump Fleury I think they would pay the price in prospects/picks rather than take a bad contract back.Todd Bersnoozi wrote: ↑Wed Sep 09, 2020 11:24 pm I've got it.

Just that he likes to party hard.Chef Boi RD wrote: ↑Wed Sep 09, 2020 9:22 pm Doc, you’re from Abbotsford. What’s the word on the street regarding Virtanen?
Who knows how good Jake might be if he ever gave up the partying.
We've seen it with some of the big stars in the league over the years.
Unfortunately GMJB doesn't have much patience with the party boys.
Recall Kassian and in Boston, Seguin.
So I think if Shotgun's propensity for partying isn't diminishing
... he may be gone.

So Eriksson + Jake Virtanen + the rights to Markstrom (sign/trade) all for a 2020 Caps 2nd + 2021 Vegas 3rd.Mëds wrote: ↑Thu Sep 10, 2020 7:41 pm Only way you get Pietrangelo in Vancouver is at a minimum of $8Mx7. Probably gonna take closer to $9M.
Hughes - Pietrangelo
Edler - Myers
That would be a helluva top-4.
Only a handful of teams could throw money around like that this year, and wouldn't ya know it, Detroit is one of them with a projected $34M in cap space, and not a ton of super talented guys to spend it on in raises.

Wings looking to rebuild, need a goalie, top 6 player for Zadina + Fabbri to play with.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

And Detroit is rebuilding = They want a young goalie for the future.

Sure, his ceiling is high, but for all we know he could be the next Brian Boucher.

Re: Trade rumours & armchair pipe dreams 19-20 Sponsored by SKYO
Benning is in a situation where a decision affects another decision and that decision affects another and so I’m assuming it all starts with Priority no. 1 - Markstrom? And so the longer the Markstrom contract drags out the longer we wait for the dominos to fall on everything else? I’m off the mark on this? Trying to guage how much time can Benning afford on waiting to push the first domino?

The first fucking dominoes should be to lock up your two franchise players to eight year deals. Full stop.
