Salary Cap: Pens 2024 Summer Thread: "Thus, knocking us out of these superior numbers when we emerge! Mr. President, we must not allow a non-playoff bound gap!"

Wow. Addison went from a rising star to garbage pretty quickly. He looked good that first year with Minny

Calen Addison avoids cliches like the plague.

Addison is the only person Waffle House took out a restraining order against.

How does Calen avoid cliches? With a cliche.

This is huge for Ottawa. Gives them a chance next year.

Damn Ullmark is a damn good get for the Senators, super curious about what they'll end up giving up.

I’m shocked they didn’t trade Anton Forsberg for Tristan Jarry…

What’s that make you and @SEALBound a combined 0-356,709?

Wow it's like I said the 2 options for them were Ullmark and Jarry, and they just happened to get the better option than Jarry.

One of those mats you tie up to the goal posts that looks like a goalie is a better option than Jarry..

Interesting.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Also looking at Ottawa, how has a team that has been bad for years also not had multiple high picks in recent years? They had no 1st, 2nd or 3rd last year and no 1st the year before. They're likely trading a 1st now for Ullmark and have to forfeit a 1st next year or the year after. They also have no 2026 2nd.

Just a downright clusterf*** of a franchise, Dorion really ruined that team.

I think Jarry to Detroit gets done now. Yzerman has publicly said he doesn't want a short term solution and I dont think anyone else is available. Guessing Berggren + a pick

I will take literally anything that doesn’t have salary coming back

 

[Empoleon8771]

I don't think you can move Jarry without taking money back right now. Even with the proposals I was throwing out, it was the Penguins taking back at least $4.5 million in short-term deals and maybe getting some assets back.

Especially considering Detroit has Husso under contract already, I figure any deal would be Husso plus futures for Jarry.

Also fine with that

 

[Malkinstheman]

Seeing Boucher + 2nd floated around as the return

Edit: Nevermind looks like 1st + Korpi

Chychrun, Debrincat, lost one due to the Dadonov trade.

I don't think you can move Jarry

I agree. But be patient. Don’t freak out.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Korpisalo at $3 million, some no-name depth guy and a 1st for Ullmark. Yeah, those rumors about the return sucking for Boston ended up true

Although I'm a bit conflicted on Korpisalo at $3 million, the AAV there is fine but the term is terrible.

 

[Malkinstheman]

I know there being no extension plays into it but getting back the 25th overall and a 3mx4 contract for a Vezina goalie is not great
