Value of: Any bad contract with 3 years term or less to the Blackhawks.

[Beendair Donedat]

Habs can send you Joel Armia and two fourth rounders for "future considerations."

# 28 and Murrray for a mid 2nd
Reily forbet and-lysell. for taylor raddyseh $750K AAV is below league min next year
Laf for 2 3rds
Cal peterson Turcotte 2nd - future consideration
##11 and garland for #19
#13 for murphy and high 2nd

Unless a team desperately needs the money, giving more ammo to Chicago after they lucked their way into Bedard seems foolish.

Get over yourself. This isn’t the way the league works with GM’s competing through spite.

Could you possibly be any more salty about the Hawks landing Bedard?

 

[ManofSteel55]

If Chicago wanted Yamamoto we could work something out, but we aren't paying you to take him. Mid round pick coming back to Edmonton, and you have yourself a tenacious little honey badger with middle six scoring ability.

Teams in Cap Hell for 2023/2024

Given the draft is coming up, as is Free Agent Season just after, I thought this would be a useful discussion. If its a repeat happy to have it deleted by mods. From my review, some really significant teams are going have serious issues next year. And by cap hell, I don't mean up against the...

Bedard accelerates the rebuild. They simply cant afford to let him get destroyed and pummled everynight on the ice and on the scoreboard. Chicago will likely quickly fill their roster with NHL ready guys.

Canucks would have Boeser, Beuvaullier, Garland and Myers available under those context.

The Chicago Blackhawks are currently slated to have 41 million in cap space for 2023-2024, and a frankly hilarious 71.6 million in cap space for 2024-2025.

The 2023 free agent class is the poops, and there’s no better way to undermine a rebuild than making some long-term ufa signing on a guy who happened to the best of a bad selection. Most of GMKD’s comments suggest he recognizes this.

So the Blackhawks are gonna need bodies, just to hit the floor. And we still want picks and prospects.

List the contracts you’d like to move and the sweetener(s) you think would get it done.

Hawks should get Kane and Toews back ..maybe even Debrincat and go for it with Bedard.

My offseason plan involves Yamamoto to Seattle for the lowest of their three 2nds. He's a hometown kid for the Kraken that's scored 20 goals in this league, I think it's good for both sides. I think he needs a fresh start and Edmonton needs someone meatier in a puck retrieval role as a top 6 RW.

Yeah ok bowman

? They're gonna be good with a solid farm system already and now Bedard. What's salty about that?

Get over yourself. This isn’t the way the league works with GM’s competing through spite.

Don't know if it's spite so much as getting creative in order to not make the rich even richer.

Any interest in Arthur Kaliyev or Alex Turcotte and Sean Durzi attached to Cal Petersen? Maybe sending Tyler Johnson back with some sort of retention?

To Chicago:
Alex Turcotte
Sean Durzi
Cal Petersen

To Los Angeles:
Tyler Johnson ($2.5 million retained)

That might leave the Kings enough room to sign both Gavrikov and Korpisalo.

Byfield - Kopitar - Kempe
Moore - Danault - Arvidsson
Fiala - Johnson - Vilardi
Iafallo - Lizotte - Grundstrom

Anderson - Doughty
Gavrikov - Clarke
Bjornfot - Roy

Korpisalo
Copley

I'm not even sure the pick is necessary, Turcotte still has value as a prospect with potential that fits the age timeline...

 

[Ovi895]

If there's friction in New York with Panarin and Toronto with Tavares imagine Chicago landing both of them for nothing a la Max Pacioretty to Carolina. Both contracts have perfect term on them left for Bedard's ELC expiring and Chicago immediately becomes a playoff contender with a Panarin-Tavares-Bedard-Jones (4 on 3) PP

 

[Space umpire]

Sure they can acquire a few guys who are still legitimate NHLers (but mostly bottom 6 even if a couple aren't) but nobody who is going to part of their future. They are going to be awful for a long time to come.

I think you’re wrong about the long time thing. Several D men will come onboard over the next 2 years. 3 good forwards on the team (out of 14 LOL) 2 looking ready in the minors. 2 in JR’s, 2 in college, this years other picks, next years 2 1sts, oh and some kid named Bedard.
Not to mention Commesso and Soderblom in goal.
Not worried about pissing him off. There will also be a slew of cap space in 1 and 2 years as the cap dumps fall aside.
Chicago will be a playoff team (no doubt in my mind) in year 3 of his ELC and thought of as an up and coming team.

I know fans don’t spend much time scouring other team’s prospects. The hawks have done a great job of stocking the cupboard.

Other teams arent going to worry about their trade partner getting too good, unless it's a divisional foe - in which case, trades are extrememly rare. And nobody is expecting the Hawks to trade with the Blues or Predators here.

Turcotte at this point has very little value , he's like Humpty Dumpty (so many concussions) . Davidson has to be careful which goalie / and or bad contracts he gets to maximize returning assets.

 

[SI90]

Josh Bailey. 1 year $5mil Cap hit $3.5million actually money owed.

 

[Space umpire]

That’s funny. I was worried it was awful for Boston. Three prospects that might never make it for three guys in their mid 20’s that are playing first line/starter minutes.

But I did say it was crazy and never would happen anyway.

So the Bruins throw in the unproven Lysell?

 

[Junohockeyfan]

If Chicago wanted Yamamoto we could work something out, but we aren't paying you to take him. Mid round pick coming back to Edmonton, and you have yourself a tenacious little honey badger with middle six scoring ability.

I think you would be lucky to dump him for free. I think you would be taking back equal salary.

I see. I wasn't aware of the injury issues.
