Post Deadline Transactions and Signings

[ACC1224]

Yeah, Timmins stashed for the next two years, not a chip.

He's most likely played his last game of the year(maybe he gets in a meaningless one at the end) but they won't be moving him.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Button puts RNH on his own picked Team Canada and then argues that the American team is better....well no shit Craig!

 

[BTP]

Team Canada is missing Cirelli and Bedard. Yes, he makes the team.

And we have the FARRR better coach in Cooper.

 

[aingefan]

They already moved Sandin because there was no playing time, Timmins is now the odd man out.

Yeah, but there’s room next year.

Whipping boy list:

Engvall
Kerfoot
Holl


Who knows?

 

[kb]

I wonder if Dubas extend Bunting after 3PM today.

That would be the worst move possible.

 

[garce]

You are watching? ...damn didn't think ppl would watch those two clownshows anymore. Lol.

It’s on,,, not exactly locked in, I just cleaned out my shower drain and dealt with a mouse in a trap. Exciting day,

 

[RoadWarrior]

Would JVR help the 2nd PP and the 3rd line enough?

Possibly Calgary sells and they can look at Toffoli.

I am really having a hard time figuring out who could possibly be available

JVR is a defensive liability who is a PP specialist. He could help PP2 but I’m not convinced he’s much of an upgrade at this point.

 

[Magic Man]

Potential cheap, expiring upgrades on ZAR.

Athanasiou, Erne, Lucic, Sundqvist, Namestnikov

 

[Americanadian]

Yeah, Timmins stashed for the next two years, not a chip.

I could see him being dealt for a forward in a similar contract position. Wade Allison makes sense - the Flyers need a 3RD for next year and the Leafs could use Allison next year when his AAV will be under league minimum. Zetterlund in SJ might be a fit too assuming his next deal is similar to Timmins.

Edit: Kastelic would be an excellent target in a Timmins trade too. Both are under contract for 2 seasons after this. Kastelic is 1 year younger than Timmins and plays C decently well. He has been a positive defensive player at the NHL level and he hits a ton.

 

[OVO16]

Potential cheap, expiring upgrades on ZAR.

Athanasiou, Erne, Lucic, Sundqvist, Namestnikov

Get Namestnikov so he can give us the inside scoop on Tampa Bay and maybe score the game-winning game 7 goal against the team that traded him.

 

[Americanadian]

That would be the worst move possible.

Why? He should have a good idea of what contracts he's bringing in to next season after the deadline.

 

[Machinae]

Yeah, but there’s room next year.

There is room to re-sign Schenn or find another dime-a-dozen d-man in UFA, too. They'd have to really like Timmins to hurt their chances this year on a guy who was a minor league trade away from waivers.

Hell, at this point I could see the Leafs waiving him if they bring in a forward without moving a D. Is he really that much more of an asset than Anderson?

 

[Fogelhund]

I see dubas adding an AHL top 6 forward.

We just moved Gaudette, Anderson, and Abramov. With the Marlies being the top team in the league expect us to add someone.

I had thought the same thing, but you posted it. The Marlies could use a boost for sure.

Timmins is going no where and will be in the top 6 next year.

I can see Schenn re-signing for the Bogosian in Tampa bay deal. 4yrs/750K cap hit i think. He gave them a discount because he just loves playing in Tampa Bay

 

[Fogelhund]

That would be the worst move possible.

Depends on the price right?

 

[kb]

Why? He should have a good idea of what contracts he's bringing in to next season after the deadline.

He's the least important to retain. He's replaceable.

You never start at the bottom on the importance scale and work up when it comes to players and cap.

 

[Larcos_Unal]

JVR would put us over the 'lazy, slow skater' quota

 

[Machinae]

Get Namestnikov so he can give us the inside scoop on Tampa Bay and maybe score the game-winning game 7 goal against the team that traded him.

I like this. Already 50% retained by TBL, another 25 from SJ would put him under a mil. They could pass the deadline with Woll sent down then call Woll back up and have 24 on the roster (I think? Pridham HELP)

 

[Namikaze Minato]

I wouldnt have minded taking a chance on Vrana at that price. St Louis really impressing me this deadline.

 

[Maple Leaf]

Why did they even sign TImmins and then add a bunch of d

 

[RoadWarrior]

JVR would put us over the 'lazy, slow skater' quota

if anything they should be looking to add more speed.

 

[OVO16]

Becuause both Gustaffson and Holl will be gone next year

 

[Fogelhund]

That’s an interesting idea. The term gives him a decent pay over the years, cap can be buried and he likely doesn’t play the full contract. Note the minimum contract for next years is $775k.
