Rumor: Rumours & Proposals Thread | Previous Poll Punted, Pristine Prospect Procurement Poll Pinned

I doubt Utah takes Campbell to play him but they could still be part of the equation. They have an insane amount of cap space an an owner who is willing to spend. They have $43M+ in cap space right now plus another $7.8M in LTIR space if needed. They also need NHL defensemen.

To Utah: Cambell $2.5M retained, Ceci, +

Utah buys out Campbell. Thats $4.5M in real money over 6 years and each team carries the following in dead cap:

24-25 $550K
25-26 $1.15M
26-27 $1.3M
27-28 $750K
28-29 $750K
29-30 $750K

I don't think the plus would have to be all that much at 50% retention. It maay even be possible to get them to take him at say 30% retention if they up the plus.

Wouldn’t the plus be downgraded if Utah reduces their retention from 50% to 30%?

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Seems, kinda strange. Is Chicago planning to trade further up or are they really looking at someone at 18?

Though on the first look I thought they were getting 18th overall and a 4th, the deal looks decent actually.

The Oilers reduce their retention to 30%. Utah takes 70%.

That’s usually the type of deal you see on the draft floor as we approach those picks. Interesting.

This was also my main thought as well. I seriously wonder if they're going to take a shot at trading for #1.

 

[LTIR]

I can't see them moving Kulak. He is what they hope Broberg becomes. They will find other ways to trim the payroll.

Maybe trade him to a bottom feeder team in the offseason to see what we got in Broberg and to free up cap.. trade for him at deadline for another cup run (with retention)

If only there was a way to convince Nurse and Utah they need eachother.

They'll want to make a splash, that's a way to do it.

Very interesting. Get on the phone with Utah

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Well this is interesting.

Holloway has so far this playoffs proven that he belongs with Draisaitl.

There has been A LOT to like about the Holloway - Draisaitl - Kane line. Holloway may just be the budget-friendly player we needed to break through to aid our cap issues next season.

I think you try and resign Henrique, if he is willing, as a responsible player to mix in and out of the top 6/9.

I wonder what a Henrique contract looks like. 34 year old, very consistent player with great utility all over the lineup. Maybe $3.5-4m x 2-3 years?

 

[JordanGalhanth]

Well this is interesting.

The guy who gave us the Nurse and Campbell contracts with the guy who sewered the Canes with the Kotkaniemi albatross. That'd be scary if I was a CBJ fan.

 

[Fishy McScales]

I thought 50% was the max retention per team on a trade.

Oilers are the ones retaining, not Utah.

Think of what they're coming off of? I think it will be better, even if it's not that much lol.

CBJ fans be like "it can't get worse".

Holland and Waddell be like "hold our beers".

Fair, but at least it's not Chia and Tambo though

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Could be the guy who won the cup and the guy who made top 8.

But Fourier mentioned Utah would take 70% of the contract, thought the limit was 50%?

Edit: I'm an idiot.

 

[Fishy McScales]

If Utah takes 70% of the contract, that means the Oilers are retaining 30% which is below 50%.

Lol. Of course. Big brain fart for me.

Controversial take but after avs buy out nichuskin I say we jump on that like Kane. He probably the player most involved in the community after Connor and Leon.

Edmonton has been a second chances place since the 80s with Messier Fuhr and Co making mistakes.

Assuming he's not still deep in his issues. Kane had a lot going on, but it felt like a lot from the organization as well, I think Nuchuskin likely goes back to Russia, because less rules?

No thanks. He nuked the locker room in the middle of a playoff run 2 years in a row.

The Avs apparently want to keep him around anyways.

If only there was a way to convince Nurse and Utah they need eachother.

If the rumors of Holland landing in Columbus are true, that man LOVES his own former players. Nurse for Columbus's first rounder, because "You can't squeeze people in this league".

I mean, sincerely not for nothing, Nurse would help the Jackets play Werenski less minutes 5 on 5 and on the PK.
