Proposal: It Was Only A Maatta Of Time: OTT + L.A. + DAL

[Perennial]

Sens out: Tkachuk, Holden, 2022 2nd, NYI's 2022 7th
Sens in: Clarke, Vilardi, Maatta, Quick

Kings out: Clarke, Vilardi, Maatta, Quick
Kings in: Tkachuk, Holden, Holtby, OTT's 2022 2nd

Dallas out: Holtby
Dallas in: NYI's 2022 7th


Ottawa pick up a hometown RD prospect with upside in Clarke, a center with top 6 potential in Vilardi, while Quick gives them another veteran goalie who's not worth his cap hit. Swapping Holden for Maata was done for cap reasons, but Maatta can be flipped with retention in order to maximize his trade value

Los Angeles pick up a truculent young 1st line winger, a veteran Dman with half the cap hit in Holden to replace Maata, while also clearing the final 2 seasons of Quick's contract. Holtby gives them a veteran backup on a 1 year deal

Dallas make room for Oettinger by erasing the off-season's most baffling signing

I've had beer farts that smell better than this

 

[thestonedkoala]

Brutal for LA

 

[Trash Panda]

Swing and a miss.

 

[Altimus]

The scary part is quicks salary is scaled just the way ottawa likes it.

 

[SNES]

Thread title should have given it away.
I'll show myself out.

 

[KingTech]

I wouldn't trade Clarke straight up for Chucky jr never mind adding Vilardi

 

[Telos]

There's no way LA deals Clarke this soon. I'd argue that he is as untouchable as Byfield at least for the present moment. They have been lauding him as a player LA has never had (a Karlsson kind of 4th forward defenseman with skill).

They had Paul Coffey...

[Karl Eriksson]

Awful for Ottawa

 

[SensFactor]

Why would Ottawa trade Brady (future captain) for another defensemen and bad contracts? We already have Thomson, JBD, Sanderson, Kleven coming on defense. I'm not a big fan of Brandt anyway.

 

[kilowatt]

How about just Maatta for a late pick?

 

[Kurrilino]

I try to figure out why on earth the Kings would do this?

We give up top notch prospects for a 20 goal scoring winger, a grandpa defender
and a backup goalie.

So basically everything we don't need.
Why ?????

 

[Langdon Alger]

What is the Maatta with you?

 

[Telos]

They had Paul Coffey...

For 30 seconds But, I think they mean as a prospect within the organization. Either way, they're really high on the kid and most of our defensemen lean toward the defensive side of the game.

“If you go to Clarke, he’s something we’ve never had,” Yannetti said. “The style of play, the offense-driving, offense-first, borderline dynamic, offensive defenseman. Clarke is something different. I don’t want to compare guys, I don’t think that’s the fair thing, but what Clarke is, is something we haven’t had. He’s an offense-generating player. He can generate offense through transition, he can generate it individually, he can generate it on the blueline, all three ways.”

 

[kilowatt]

Why would LA want Holtby when they just signed Petersen to a three year deal by the way? Why is Dallas involved?

If we presume that Brady Tkachuk is a coveted piece for LA, surely it can simply be a trade between just the two teams?

Something like Turcotte, Kempe, and Kupari for Tkachuk as a starting point. Not sure I'd want to do that though from LA.

 

[SDBondra]

I might have gone with “Hakuna Maata” myself.

 

[Guided by Veseys]

U Matta Brodie?

 

[Golden_Jet]

Ottawa already has some players like Brandt.
Hell no to Maata, Vilardi and Quick, All cap dumps.
What’s with all your junk Ottawa proposals, seems like incensed with Ottawa.

[Golden_Jet]

Lol, Ottawa really needs another 6 million dollar goalie at 35 years old, and an RFA and UFA that expires this year.
No one mentioned ELC , except you lol.

You added Vilardi to the list of cap dumps. He's on an ELC.
