You don’t think Virtanen and Sutter could get positive asset bro?Friend I don’t think cap space is cheap: look what it cost Vegas to move Schmidt

In this environment: not really.You don’t think Virtanen and Sutter could get positive asset bro?
I hear there's a leprechaun at the end of the rainbow.
Also for a second argument: I’d argue that Johnssom (NJ) and Virtanen are fairly similar in value; Johnssom just went for essentially not even a third round pick valueIn this environment: not really.
Who would take Virtanen at say 7M?
Edit: to be clear, Sutter makes 4.4M and I am assuming that Virtanen’s new construct is between 2.2 and 3M given comparables.
There are several alternatives including far better players that you can get for that: Hoffman, Dady, Granlund, Haula, Duclair and Sodeberg all put up the same or better numbers last year. Then add in the potential trade dumps by Vegas (Patches, JAM) or Golden Knights (Gourde, Killorn) and I struggle why this offer means much
Virtanen has more value than Andreas JohnsonAlso for a second argument: I’d argue that Johnssom (NJ) and Virtanen are fairly similar in value; Johnssom just went for essentially not even a third round pick value
What about my first argument? How big of a difference?Virtanen has more value than Andreas Johnson
Virtanen has more value than Andreas Johnson
I mean Virtanen is an excellent asset, I’d value him at a 2nd round pick. If a team in need of a center has cap room why wouldn’t you get Virtanen for free? Detroit maybe?What about my first argument? How big of a difference?
I’m literally every aspect except hockey IQ. Skating, shooting, physicality, defensively etcBased on what?
Maybe the injury I guess?
I mean it’s not clear to me what Virtanen is worth given other options: the opportunity cost of 7M of cap space is high. For a somewhat competitive team there is much better value. For rebuilding teams, is it the best use of cap space? It’s not obviousI mean Virtanen is an excellent asset, I’d value him at a 2nd round pick.

I think the discussion revolved around using Virtanen to dump Sutter (a center).The 18 face offs he took last season make him a real valuable centre, eh?
If you paid attention to the conversation and read the whole argument you’d see I’m talking about Brandon SutterThe 18 face offs he took last season make him a real valuable centre, eh?
Sorry but what in the hell are you even talking about? Benning set the team back a decade by signing a goaltender to a two year contract?I’m sorry but I don’t buy it. Holtby was hot garbage and used his cup to pillage the Canucks. If Seattle was smart they would think of pillaging canucks management as well. For his performance and pay it is an albatross.
Look I know what it means. Dim Jim signed him for 1 year too long, took the team back a decade.

Yes.Sorry but what in the hell are you even talking about? Benning set the team back a decade by signing a goaltender to a two year contract?
