Value of: How Much Retention Needed to Move Tarasenko ?

[Junohockeyfan]

Will send Laine at 40% retained for Tank. Tank can be Demidov’s surrogate father, chauffeur and advisor.

 

[datsyukfan]

They have plenty of cap to do whatever they want.

Less than you think if they are going big fish hunting + bringing Kane back

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

How about Walman deal 2.0?

Even Steve Yzerman is not stupid enough to do that again

Who?

There’s lots of cap and only so many spots. There no point in paying Tank to play with someone else. Just silly.

Penguins aren't trying to compete next season and have cap space to burn. Make an attractive offer for say Rakell or Rust, and sweeten the pot a little bit to get them to take Tarasenko back. It's only one year and maybe he's a guy the Pens could retain on and flip at the TDL.

Nah.

 

[SirloinUB]

If the Penguins trade Rakell or Rust I'd take Tarasenko no retention with a draft pick attached.

If Detroit is desperate to move on from Tank they can open up more than 3M of cap space by buying him out never mind the fact that they have more than 20 million in cap space to work with so they really won't be desperate to move on.

I'm not sure why they would pay an asset to unload Tank.

Also pass on Rakell/Rust. Still solid players but the asking price I've seen is far to high for a team like Detroit.

O I wasn't even talking about trading them to Detroit.

Asking price is high and it has a lot to do with the AAV of the contracts.

How about Walman deal 2.0?

If he has an undisclosed off-ice issue like Walman did, I suppose you could get that.

 

[Sendhelp2Anaheim]

Should just hit up pat verbeek…. He’ll pay you to take him

Give us a 2nd so we can send it to SJS to take Compher at 50%.

The issue was seemingly that Steve just didn’t like the guy. Griddied too hard or somethin.

"Or somethin" being the obvious off-ice issue.

Ok, what do you think happened? Because I know Stevie didn’t shop the dude around, and now he’s a key contributor on a finals team. Oh, and Stevie missed playoffs, I’d say he’s got more issues being off ice than Jake does, currently.

I think it's very clear what happened... An off-ice issue.

Would you like me to baselessly speculate as to what that was? Because throwing around stuff like "So and so probably had an alcohol or drug problem or probably was harassing an employee or probably banged a teammate's wife" about a specific player, with no evidence, kinda seems like something Troll Stomper would love to toss a warning out for. f***, we couldn't even say the names of the Team Canada guys until they came out and confirmed them.

"I know Stevie didn't shop the dude around". You're right. He didn't. He got him the f*** out of the organization immediately. Hmm... Wonder why you would do that?

By the way, he did the same with Vrana... Difference is we have an idea of why that was because he had just come back from rehab.

K, congrats on that decision you agree with even though you don’t know why it was made, on getting rid of a cup contending D-man. It has really worked out well for Detroit.

I know why it was made.

An off ice issue.

 

[Spektre]

Nah, that bridge is burnt

Perron was a Blue 3 times… never say never

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

I would insist on 50% retention.

Or if you want the full contract gone I want the same deal you got for Wallman, I'll take the full contract but I want your 2025 2nd.

I have no interest in him at full contract unless there is an asset coming with him.

That being said he did win with Berube so I could see Toronto calling
