Gudbranson to Ottawa

seems like it, plus somebody to fight for the kids.

Sounds like they are just trying to figure out what the cap dump is and which prospect as well.

Good luck with that.

probably the best for everyone's sanity to not start this up again

Nutivarra for basically free and Gudbranson costs a 5th. Weird league.

Domi for Anderson

Buddy and I sat there together the other day in silence trying to figure out the Domi trade for like half an hour and just looked at each other and were like "Nope, I can't justify this in anyway for MTL".

Ottawa trying to fill the right side with size obviously but also that's the cap hit to get to the cap floor for them.

I'd be pissed.

But, Benning has talked so highly of them and basically said we'll have them to slot in in the next couple years, so I think those two are off limits.

What about the "good Granlund" to play with Bo if the cost is reasonable?

He's a playmaker, seems like a good fit with Horvat, no?

Will we be able to afford him? I know the amount of UFA's are high, but good players still get paid.

3/1.5m 👍

Closets comparable are probably Zach Sanford. Lawson Crouse. Denis Gurianov.

Gur an RFA.

Crouse and Sanford both at 1.5

Can you handle 20 goals a season for 1.5 if he comes to camp out of shape?

Apparently the Kings' Head Scout said the Kings tried to trade up into the first round about 7 different times and were told "no" on the phone before he could even finish asking

Too soft, doesn't score enough.

Depends on the OEL deal, it's hard for fans to speculate on cap without knowing what's happening behind the scenes

Benning said that he was disappointed that where they would have been picking he saw players falling that they had ranked ahead.

Covid has a 1st worth 4x it's value right now IMO.

2 things...

He will be slow outta the gate as he has proven.

Scoring 20 is far from a given imo

Summary he hasn’t earned much respect from the coaches or team mates. He’s aloof & immature & will wear out his welcome soon.

One more day of speculation and the sh!t hits the fan. Not like some try to do in here with personal attacks on a sh1t show basis but the reality check kind when agents/GM's have to deal with the new market.

It is obvious JB is standing pat on his offers for trades and signings. We'll see who blinks first. But this time around JB doesn't have to pay top value/price. He has many options and directions to pivot into.

A logical landing spot for him 👍

Yup...but let’s not pretend it doesn’t happen. Always has, always will. It’s only illegal if you get caught

No kidding. 400 out of 500 NHL players couldn't score 15 last season.

was there no "discussion" window this year?
