Confirmed with Link: Nemec going, going, gone…to Calgary (for two future firsts and a second rounder)

  • If you are having issues logging in, we have found opening the log in page in a new tab/window rather than using the pop out should resolve these issues. We are working to get this resolved and thank you for patience.
  • Due to the increased volume of league transactions, the Trade Rumors and Free Agent Talk section is temporarily restricted to where threads may only be started by moderators and sponsors. We anticipate that this restriction will be lifted some time after the first round of the draft.
I like Nemec but there is a chance he never puts his defense together, is too low intensity, and is barely an NHL player.

Also a world where he does put things together and he’s a 1st pairing 2 way guy.

If Nemec does want $9 million on a long term deal, this is probably good risk avoidance by the devils. It sounds like he wanted out so he may not want as much from Calgary.
 
Early 2nd, 2 future 1sts which may be later 1sts and a B prospect.

Not gonna complain because I’m assuming it’s the best offer he got and it gives us a solid stockpile of future capital that can be used for acquiring players or drafting.

Also Tyslapov is probably a cap dump. So we also opened up some cap space and avoided dealing with Nemec’s big contract ask.

Biggest risk is that Nemec figures things out and becomes a really good defensmen in Calgary.
