Looking at it a little more, they like to show max value on deals. They show Eichel's ELC at 3 years 11.3m.
- Lunaion

It makes sense to show what the highest potential cap hit is. Just got me thinking as I'm always assuming ELCs are that standard charge across the board when in reality those performance bonuses can add almost 50% to that number for each season.

Slowly, I am learning.

edmonotn media are like horny school kids when it comes to NHL Dmen trade talk, they latch onto a RHD all summer talking about how they are going to trade for them

Risto is now their boy....Barrie was their guy last year...Faulk, Seth Jones, the list goes on and on

If it aint the big 3, I don't put much into it. The offer's ok.. they're similar in defensive abilities, plus you get a seemingly 2nd tier elite defenseman in that spot that you might see in two years. Hughes, Dobson, Smith, Bouchard.. Good for the long term by giving us another top 4 dman, but short term, probably makes us worse.

is the Rishaug guy speculating on a trade like #10 and Klefblom for Risto new or old news

Matheson definitely trolls hockeybuzz and HF Boards for trade speculation.

Wow. That would be something.
- sbroads24

That cant be right, can it? I mean we know who their GM is but really?

Hear me out...

Risto turns into 10 and Klefbom

Send 10 and ROR to Montreal for Gally and 3

Sabres get:

Klefbom, Gally, and Zadina

for ROR and Risto

Salary cap out: $12,900,000

Salary in: $9,067,000 plus the ELC of Zadina

Only down side is Gally would need a new deal after the 2019-2020 season but that's easily doable

Can we just trade this guy, or put him in as a throw in? Doesn't any team to get to the cap floor?

I think most around the NHL would take Klefbom over Risto.

Looking at who the two GM's are of those two teams, I would say yes you're correct

tis true, I would be very happy if you could get Klefbom when his "perceived value" is low

RoR for Zadorov and Compher

Pilut is gonna be better than Antipin, will he make the top 6? Not sure, but he will be better than Antipin.

I'd buy that. Matheson definitely gets sick of being PC in his print media so he strolls in the hockeyboards as iggy and calls people r-trds.
