Value of: Cam York
- Thread starter Gregor Samsa
- Start date
Kind of vague. You selling? Buying? Talking about money for next contract?
Kind of strange bread after off-year. Output went from 10 to 20 to 30 and back to 17.
Fans hated it when they traded down and selected him instead of drafting Boldy or Caufield even if they got Brink bc of it.
2nd pair dman at best.
Maybe a candidate for another trade with Anaheim (Zegras?) as he is from CA.

I’m interested in his value in any way. It could be a player for player trade for a similarly aged or younger player. It could be for futures. It could be attaching a late 1st on him as well for a good young player. He’s pretty vanilla. Still young but can play on a competitive team. I think Tortorella’s coaching made a lot of the Flyers look subpar so I’m giving him a break for this season. I’m not sure how York fits in on the future team though. He’s one of their only NHL pieces that has value and is expendable to some extent
Sure as 4.5 gets only a 2nd rounder.
4.58 though gets a 1st and a 3rd. Way different.

4.5 isn't much these days if you think he's a 20min player. The compensation isn't much. Even at 7 years, the compensation would most likely fall in the 1st + 3rd range.
Tell me which team is asking, I’ll play. Philly has no stud but d lineup is pretty full with many young guys knocking (Bonk, Madonald, even Samson)
Looking for a C.
Enough picks already.

I’m a Philly fan so I’m just trying to gauge value. Definitely looking for a C. Could be a prospect as well
Anaheim could use help on d. Rumblings about an offer sheet for McTavish might trigger movement as these teams trade often.
Easier trade is Zegras. Would consider it especially if York’s camp is greedy.

Isn't he a smaller LHD? That's the last thing Anaheim needs. LaCombe, Mintyukov, and Zellweger already have those spots taken plus Solberg is probably a year or so away. The need on D is s big, physical, defensive RHD. Doubtful Anaheim adds anyone there this year, they have Helleson, Gudas, and Trouba there for the year and Luneau and Moore coming up in the next year or two.
Ducks need to add a top 6 forward, not move a forward for a D. And with something like $38 mil in space, a team would have to offer more than McTavish will possibly be worth in the future to get him.

No point selling now, there's a better than average chance that his slump was down to Torts.

I'd imagine you can still trade him for something very similar without the offersheet needed.

He also had an injury this season that hampered his play. I would give him a bridge deal of 2 years at about $3m, and see how he goes.

I wouldn't move him unless he tells DB he wants out, which I don't expect because his issue was pretty clearly with Torts in particular, or if someone in the top 10 or so goes loco and decides they prefer York to anyone left on the board this draft. We just don't have enough competent defensemen to justify it.

I think he is worth 4.5 million to 6 million. He has put up good results while playing against slightly above average competition for the last three years. I think he could truly be unlocked in a better system maybe? Wish Carolina would trade for him but they have enough defenseman.
Sandin to Washington probably the ceiling. That was for 30oa and a rental Erik Gustafsson (who they probably could've gotten a 2nd for individually)

Not really. Ducks need scoring. Ducks have tons of cap space to match any offer sheet for McTavish. I don’t understand those rumors.
Bringing York home to Anaheim makes some sense, but the Ducks need Zegras’ offensive creativity more.

It would make more sense for Flyers to trade Tippett than Foerester. But either way, I don't think York will get the return the Flyers want...it's better for the Flyers to keep York and see his development under a new coach.
He's one of the names I am interested in the Red Wings targeting this summer.
I think on a Dcore with guys like Seider and Edvinsson he could thrive as more of a number 3.
Tough to see a trade fit between the two teams. Detroit needs centers as much as you guys.

Yeah, I’m not necessarily interested in trading York, just trying to gauge his value. Next year should be a pure evaluation type of season for individual players. Mostly I’m thinking of York and Drysdale, and seeing what they look like without Torts

I think York has proven a lot more than Sandin when that trade went down. The Flyers are also not in a phase of their rebuild where they need to start cutting bait with young players with upside and some established record of pretty good play in the NHL. They can absolutely afford to keep guys like York and see how they look under a new coach, new situation as more support potentially starts to arrive and slot them into more appropriate roles.
The fact that York has shown a little more and is an RFA might hurt his value in some marginal respect, as he could very well ring in more expensive than Sandin, especially with the cap increases since that deal was signed. But for the sort of teams that'd likely be looking at York, i doubt that's a real dealbreaker or anything.
I've always been a fan of Cam York though, and probably valued him higher than average. You'll always wish he was a little bit bigger, but he's got the mobility, smarts, and puck-moving skillset to pretty effectively compensate for that.
I'd certainly happily take him on the Canucks if he were to come cheap, but i don't see there being any reason for Philly to unload him for anything that Vancouver could afford to pay, with so many other more pressing holes in the roster to fill. A smallish puck-moving LH Shooting D for the 2nd pair just isn't a priority...even if you're more comfortable than Tocchet/Foote playing him on his off side. Would just be a "luxury acquisition" so the price point will never line up. Plenty of other teams where he'd make a ton of sense though, if Philly really think they've got the quality and quantity on the blueline to move a young, effective guy like that (which i don't really think they do).
