But loaded with balance eon the wings. Jets want a centre. Ot possibly thin out the right a bit and move Tatar and a first for Laine with a first rounder next year? Gallagher and a first is an easy swap for roster balances But they are reportedly looking for a Centre. If we hadnt moved Domi, i think yes. But now that he's gone, we'd be in bad shape if either JK or Suzuki faltered and we moved Danault (unless a centre was coming back). 10 hours ago, dreegking said: how much was the Alzner buy out from a cap perspective This year its not much different (a little higher) but next year its about half. His cap hit was supposed to be $4.6m for 2 more years. Now that we've bought him out, his cap hit this year is $3.9m but we cant 'bury' any of that (if we didnt buy him out & sent him to the minors about $1m would be buried & off the cap). Next year it goes down to $2.2m or something. Then 2 more years at $8-900k So the big savings is next year. This year its just slightly higher (in practical terms). Link to post Share on other sites
maas_art 0 Posted October 9, 2020 Report Share Posted October 9, 2020 Eklund, so you know, probably pure garbage but: Quote Montreal “confident about chances to land Hall” Just got off of the great source in Montreal....source that has steered me correct so many times...a guy who has his finger on the pulse of the team. A true legend. An alumni. He tells me that Montreal plans on making a major push for Taylor Hall. And they are confident about their chances. Source: Eklund Link to post Share on other sites

Yes - minor bridge deal for a spare depth development part. Unless he really explodes this year and his playing time may be hard to come by, He isn’t part of the long term plan.

Remember Buffalo gave his camp the right to speak to teams this week ahead of the market opening. LeBrun is generally pretty connected so I assume we have made an offer to Simmonds. For a while he was on par with Pacioretty but he's really fallen off a cliff the past 3 years... not sure im a big fan - would rather have Kovalchuk Link to post Share on other sites

BigTed3 0 Posted October 9, 2020 Report Share Posted October 9, 2020 With LV and Clb both clearing cap space like crazy, have to figure they're onto something... as the Preds did when they signed Duchene. Expect LV is front-runner for Pietrangelo. Is Clb going after Hall? Krug? Someone else? Link to post Share on other sites
