Proposal: CLS-Nashville Blockbuster
- Thread starter AintLifeGrand
- Start date
Certainly interesting, but if we're giving up that much I'd want to address defense a little as it's probably our biggest need.

"that chick from Ohio"
This is basically a pile of assets the Jackets have little use for for two players the Jackets have a lot of use for. Farrance in particular represents pretty much the exact polar opposite of the sort of blueliners the Jackets need, and Kunin and Tolvanen are similarly of little interest because of a large number of mid-to-decent wingers on the roster.

Pretty bad for CBJ and how does this even work salary wise?
Maybe something around Voracek for picks/prospects could work.

Problem for Nashville - That's $16m in cap with almost nothing going out. You can't give Forsberg his raise, kind of defeats the purpose.
Problem for CBJ - That's a bunch of pointless quantity that the Jackets don't need. They have enough medium upside young players. A lot of young guys that could score 20 and a lot of young offensive D that will be decent someday. They'd do better with more lottery tickets (draft picks).

Right. Just like the DRT Red Wings.

Pass. We're doing fine in Nashville and Kunin and Tolvanen are playing well, don't need to change anything and take on any more big salaries. Those spots on the payroll are already filled. We need the cheap/effective youngsters more.

It's generally safe to assume that no-one except your own teams die-hards know (or want to know) the goofy nicknames of your lines or players
CLS
Shit one sided trade
“Blockbuster”
A hat trick of failures. Good job

CBJ is what I’m used to seeing.

This is a bad trade. There is this thing called a salary cap.
Are you saying Forsberg, Johansen and Cousins are soft or have no bite? Remember on the back end we have Ekholm, Boro and Myers too.
I don't like the deal but the only physical forward we'd be giving up would be Kunin, and right now, I'd say we're one of the more physical teams in the NHL.
