Salary Cap: Dr Dubas Cap Thread: He wants the Nurse

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

3rd and 5th is too much

 

[SEALBound]

There is no chance a guy coming off a 16 point season is going for that high of a pick.

It's like 2 future 3rds at most. Maybe a future 2nd.

I've been hurt before.

 

[Empoleon8771]

I've been hurt before.

 

[SEALBound]

Devils + SJS 3rd in 2027/28 would work for me.

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

Yeah zero excitement for this guy but that's fine.

 

[SEALBound]

Very tolerable. Those are the kind of picks that you can easily recoup as well. Decent trade/risk-reward.

Interesting thought that he's a center and that's the one position we have relatively locked down - Sid-Novak/Geno-Kindel-Lizotte. Wonder if this opens the door to someone else exiting.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Not a bad cost but I'm "meh" on the player.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Probably a guy who will pass through waivers to be sent down.

 

[Pancakes]

Finally Kyle got the elite young player we've all been craving

 

[deakka]

Does he require to go through waivers?Otherwise its at least a nice player for WBS. Otherwise, yeah, Novak or Braz are probably gone

 

[Pancakes]

Probably a guy who will pass through waivers to be sent down.

They aren't trading two picks to put a guy on waivers

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

Wait so they HAVE to try to make this guy work at the NHL level?

Mehhhhhhhhhhhhh

WBS is no longer affiliated with the Pens.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Rakell-Crosby-Rust
Chinakhov-Novak-Malkin
McGroarty-Kindel-Brazeau
Dewar-Lizotte-Soderblom
Lapierre

This is what they're likely sitting with right now. Lapierre is just another Tomasino/Soderblom type of low-cost young addition, if he pans out great if he doesn't who cares.

 

[Maninthebox87]

Since he came from the caps I assumed he was a big gritty center 6’4 220….. he is not….

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

WBS is no longer affiliated with the Pens.

Wait wat?

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

Yeah it's meh all around. W/e.

 

[Maninthebox87]

Wait wat?

Does he mean wheeling nailers?

 

[Pancakes]

Wait so they HAVE to try to make this guy work at the NHL level?

Mehhhhhhhhhhhhh

Isn't that self evident? They aren't moving picks for a guy they're not planning to play in the NHL.

Does make it harder for Avery Hayes to snag a spot I imagine

 

[Ugene Magic]

Does he mean wheeling nailers?

That' it..... my bad.

 

[Pancakes]

Wait wat?

I think he means Wheeling. Hoffman's said they're going to make the Everblades the Pens ECHL affiliate.

I assume WBS is staying as our AHL affiliate

 

[Empoleon8771]

Edit: moving to the Lapierre trade thread.

I would rather just go with what they have that being the case. This dude stinks. Whatever... price was cheap and once they lose interest and he goes unclaimed he can maybe help in the AHL.

Oh trust me I'm aware. I live right outside of Wheeling.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Well, anyway, he's as useless to talk about as Darnell Nurse.

That one season has been an extreme outlier in Johnson's career.

And the sole season over 13-14 minutes of ice per game at 17 and change.
