Rumor: Rumors and Proposals Thread: Movie Poster Edition VI- "Kenny Lives"

[Ibanez]

Those Bruins LTIR moves are super suspect.

Yeah especially when initial reports it was minor

 

[belair]

You have to consider injuries too. Like what would happen if RNH had to miss some playoff games? Suddenly you have to go with

Kane McDavid Yamamoto
Kostin Draisaitl Hyman (?)
Kostin McLeod Foegele

I'd prefer the flexibility of having Domi in there, it gives you the option of still playing McDrai if you want.

I'd prefer using the cap and the capital to acquire multiple players.

Namestnikov is currently a $1.25m cap hit in SJ. He's consistently been a 20+ EVP scorer, he's multi-positional and he plays all situations. He's been traded three times for a 4th and as recently as last year. Judging by his season, he's probably going to cost less than that.

I don't see Domi as a sensible add. Too much cap, too expensive for what he brings.

Wonder if you consider LTIRing Yamo if his status is uncertain. Gives a lot more room to play with for an addition.

This is preferable. I like the jam he brings to the table when he is healthy. I'd prefer to not have to trade either of him or Foegele away to bring another body in.

They said you can't trade for players that are on LTIR and expect them to play in playoffs , never said anything about putting current players on LTIR to bring back for playoffs

Domi is on pace for 25 goals, 67 points ... I mean that's easily worth his salary. If Puljujarvi or Yamamoto had even 85% of those numbers, most Oiler fans would've been tap dancing down the street.

If Connor Bedard ends up there he’s going to be f***ed because that team is going to be shit for years to come.

 

[McSuper]

I'm wondering about Bennett. Is there actually any truth that their thinking of moving him? Of so, he's exactly the add I would make .And he's friends with McDavid to boot. Not sure what it would take but a 2nd and a prospect ?? if Yams is out we would have the cap space .

Is there any real rumours ?

 

[Soundwave]

If Kailer is feeling even a tiny bit of something something from yesterday .... dude, sit down and take a break. This isn't just a trade deadline thing, but your future health could be impacted in a big way in a way that's no joke.

 

[Oilhawks]

Quite literally a player graveyard. What an absolute disgrace.

Their Legacy continues to grow.

Give me 2 of Gudas, Schmaltz, Vrana, or Bjugstad and I'll consider that a W

Domi would fit in just fine with double retention. Would cost a 2nd to Chicago and a 4th or 5th to a second team to retain 750k.

Could go one of two ways, Vegas tanks and gets Bedard, or they sweep the Kings in the first round. No other alternative realities are possible

They are Gary's team so both probably happen.

Holy meh to all of that...

 

[McAsuno]

Holy meh to all of that...

Who's your choices then?

 

[RipsADrive]

Friedman floating the idea that the Flames are going to start selling.

 

[alphahelix]

I mean, we do already have mcdavid and draisaitl. gotta shop from whats available and frankly we could win the cup if we added the 2 best of those 4

Holy meh to all of that...

 

[WaitingForUser]

Friedman floating the idea that the Flames are going start selling.

No they won’t they can’t ever get the we must rebuild thing right.

 

[Sanchez]

Friedman floating the idea that the Flames are going start selling.

If they lose tonight, we might see Flames selling. Their chances of making the playoffs dwindle daily as more teams win that are ahead and they keep losing or getting a Bettman point.

 

[Cloned]

Friedman floating the idea that the Flames are going start selling.

Toffoli would be nice.

 

[LTIR]

Friedman floating the idea that the Flames are going start selling.

They don't even feel good enough to catch Seattle?? Selling would be pathetic

 

[nexttothemoon]

At this point with the mockery that is LTIR... the league should just drop the pretense that there's any validity to the concept of the "salary cap".

Make the HARD salary cap 10% higher for all playoff teams than exists in the regular season and that's the MOST you can dress for any playoff game.

IE... for regular season games it's $82.5 million and for any playoff games it's $97.5 million.

That way teams can still load up at the deadline (which is fun for fans/ league publicity etc) BUT only to a point because the playoff games cap limit will be only 10% higher.

 

[McTonyBrar]

Oilers not likely to get Bjugstad according to Friedman and we really wanted Eller.


Hmmm who do we want?

By all accounts Domi is costing you a 2nd with no retention. That's their last retention slot.

I think that a team takes him full clip.

If Yamamoto is on LTIR, I'd be happy to take him.
