okposo + 2nd round pick and 50% retained for a 7th
do we take that? also he apparently has a 15 team ntc, complicates stuff |

Kyle Okposo, 13 points in 35 games.
Jeff Skinner 13 points in 51 games.
One makes $6 million for 2 more years, the other $9 million for 6 more years.
Neither of them are REASONABLY tradeable. - Powerslave
Right because they are the only bad contracts in the NHL.
No other team has one that could benefit us, like a slightly overpaid goalie, or maybe a LD
We also have 0 prospects to give a team to possibly make a trade
Kyle Okposo has to be on this roster next season.
That’s kinda nuts |

I’d think the GM would still have “final say” - jdfitz77
Kevyn and Jason will be making decisions together, and Kevyn will be signing on the dotted lines.

You might, MIGHT, find one sucker in the league to make that deal with.
The question you have to ask yourself is, are YOU, as rival GM, making that trade? |

you'd need a rich owner in with lots of cap space who wouldn't be afraid to bury him
revenue being way down and a flat cap probably makes this even harder lol
honestly i think it would cost a first round pick, or a 2nd and a 3rd, and at that point i dont think its worth it

Marleau made a mil more, and they didn’t retain.
Figure it out.
Other teams do - sbroads24
Aside from our top 4 pick, which we aren't giving up for okposo.
Who would you trade with okposo:
Joker
Bryson
Mitts
Timber
Another team is going to want something of value |

👏👏👏
I think the only reasonable way to get rid of Okposo is him retiring,
OR possibly buying him out IF the Pegulas would agree to it |

Guess having those extra picks could come in handy. |

It's definitely not worth a first. You have 2 more years w this guy.
By all means, if you can find some idiot willing to give you anything for him, you do it. I'm not holding my breath, nor am I holding it against Adams if he can't move him. |

U don’t “KNOW” that simply based on a title
Do u think the “associate” captains are on the same level as the Captain as well? |

Go read the article I posted above, the last few sentences. They will be making decisions together. |

"Everything that's going to be happening from today moving forward in our organization, Jason's going to be involved with," Adams said. "We're going to make decisions together. We're going to work hand in hand in every area with other staff members." |

I think the only realistic scenario is okposo+ for an equally underwhelming but slightly lower paid player

Last couple sentences in the article, what Taco said is right. - Buff36
I didn’t mean that Karmanos being here was trivial
But i still think there’s an order to the chain of command
What happens when they disagree- flip a coin?
I doubt it |

Seattle right?
Skimmers contract is far more immovable than okposo.
Okposo and a 7th for MAF as 1 poster suggested.
Maybe find an assistant gm somewhere? Like botts? 🤔 |

Then what's the point?
If you're only saving a few bucks and getting similar output, and you have to add a +, then really there's no point. |

Okposo + a 2nd for Miko Koskinen.
Bury him in Rochester as the third goalie
At least he would serve a purpose |

All the Houser haters here must be pissed tonight.
Like I said last game, maybe he finds a backup role somewhere.
Nice story for him. |
