I don’t love giving up a second when he only had 1 year left but I can live with it. We have 2 3rds next year correct?
Confirmed with Link: Marc Staal TRADED.

Xenforo Cloud will be upgrading us to version 2.3.5 on March 3rd at 12 AM GMT. This version has increased stability and fixes several bugs. We expect downtime for the duration of the update. The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version. Click Here for Updates
Not sure as in how you feel about the deal itself? Or more about what the driver of it was/what the fallout of this becomes?

Yeah, like, we don't have to run out and do something because of this.
I'd like to get another year under our belts before we really get aggressive.

Losing their 2nd next year affects the type of offer-sheet they can extend, though. Unless it's in the $4,363,096 - $6,544,640 range, in which the price is a 1st and a 3rd.
Is 6.5 AAV enough to where a team like Tampa can walk away from Sergachev or Cirelli?

Just saying tearing down a roster like that and getting all sorts of high end picks/prospects is the easy part. Rebuilds always looks good on paper. Putting it all together and building a balanced competitive roster is the real work.

A little rich for my blood.
We have Miller, Reunanen, and Robertson.
I just want an NHL player over there.

I'd be totally fine with Miller, Tarmo and Hajek battling for the spot. No need to sign a guy as old as Krug who is going to want a pay day.

Huh. Wasn’t expecting that
This has to preclude another move. You don’t move a 2nd rounder for no reason.
If this is just to clear space to keep the band together I’ll be kinda pissed tbh. Keeping Jesper Fast isn’t worth a 2nd

I don't mind giving up a pick to get the salary of the books but am scared about the fallout. I think Strome will get a long-term deal which is a mistake.
Yup just let Hank play out his deal now. No need to ruffle feathers and do anything crazy. Their should be enough space to ice the same team as last year without Staal. It’s not like there’s any real targets this summer to make a splash with and I would rather not trade ADA after the season he just had

Wow. Just saw this. I was actually looking earlier and thought Detroit might make sense for Staal, but figured it was a pipe dream.
Good job Gorts.

maybe. I’m happy we recouped almost 6 million in space now. Plus I have a feeling we will recoup a second this year or next year in a trade
Wtf. Feeling like a dick to be saying I've been looking forward to this days for like five years. But this is huge.

I really don’t want to get that aggressive. Re-sign ADA, see if you can make a second draft splash.... not really interested in more players we have to protect from expansion at this point.

Yeah, now that I think about it, there has to be some plan here.
If the plan was just to save money, they could have just rode it out.
Is the sentiment of us being in on an offer sheet situation something people here think is realistic? Or just more of an interesting what-if to consider?
