Rumor: COL - CBJ May Make Trade Today

[SirSamofHouseBennett]

If clearing out a problem child like Barrie it is worth it. Especially if there is only 10M in salary coming back.

this is GOLD.

Tyutin?

The Avs just traded Holden so it would open up a spot for one of our youngsters. I doubt they would go out and acquire someone that's not only on par with him performance wise, but older and higher paid as well.

Hartnell then?

 

[Cowumbus]

If it's Atkinson I will officially be on team get rid of Jarmo

 

[axecrew]

Not sure how or why JJ would make sense for the Avs given that they seem to hate Barrie for some reason.

They don't hate Barrie...quite the opposite...Barrie is looking for more money then they are willing to spend.

Who is this guy? He looks like Dwight schrutes cousin. Maybe he meant to say he's a beet writer?

Haha.

Hartnell then?

I could see Hartnell. It would probably depend on how much is retained, the price, and whether he's willing to waive his NMC for the expansion draft next year.

 

[Bollski]

I think the NMC stays in place after a trade. But the club can always ask a player to waive just for expansion.

hmm. New team doesn't have the option of honoring the NMC once it is waived? That was my understanding, but I'm not going to pretend I know the CBA by heart, I could be wrong

 

[YP44]

reuniting the Johnson's from US world junior days is my guess

 

[Bollski]

depends on the return, Atkinson is right now slated as a likely expansion draft loss, but we all seem to slowly be heading down towards that path with you

 

[Bollski]

Haha.

Your username makes me really sad

Bollski misses Johansen

Hartnell then?

Does the Tyutin buy-out clear up your cap issues or do you still need to move someone else?

 

[CBJSlash]

We'll still make another move.

 

[Avs425]

Super joe said on multiple occasions that if the avs were to get a Dman it would be via trade not free agency. Gotta think it would be a deal involving CBJ Dman. Would gladly take Atkinson, always liked that guy. Would think it would be a cap clearing move for CBJ so im guessing something around the John Mitchell sorts going back.

Be interesting to see if anything comes of it. Always see the two teams as good trade partners.

We're probably good now. But if we can trade Hartnell, I'm sure we'll still do it. It's just not a need anymore.

There's rumors Clarkson needs to be LTIR'd, maybe for the rest of his career, so if that's true then we get even more cap space once the season starts.

The cap is OK, but moving Hartnell to a team with an open protection slot for a forward would really help them with the ED.

Then JJ makes sense. Or Savard, but I don't know if we would want to move Savard. Unless you count on a minor name like Goloubef or Prout going to Colorado as a positive.

I agree on it either being jj or saverd and also agree that from a CBJ point of view you would not want to move savard What does jj have left on his contract?

2 years left at 4.35 mill. No NMC or NTC.

 

[member 202355]

Barrie for Jack Johnson and Clarkson with retained salary?

A #1 defenseman for two awful cap dumps? This would be the worst trade in NHL history.

 

[Avs425]

Ok for sure. Could definitely see something coming out of that. What would you expect in a return?

I don't think you understand how good Tyson Barrie is. He's certainly no cap dump.

 

[DarthProbert]

CBJ clearing room for Stamkos! /s

Got 'em...
