Elias Pettersson is a shell of himself.
Something must have happened and he needs a change.

For $11 mil I don’t like the salary but maybe if we trade Josh Anderson and Kirby Dach both salary should be ok and Vancouver needs to retain.

Also if Rasmus Dahlin I would offer them Guhle, Roy and both first round picks.

Our team dynamic would change dramatically.

...yup, we'd be soft as baby shyte...
 
Well Suzuki is closer to 8m then 7m so it's already kind of breaking the rules, but honestly in the end it depends on the rest of the team makeup. Ironically the Habs would benefit more by adding a 14m player and the Oilers would benefit by adding two quality 7m players because the Oilers lack depth whereas we have the depth but lack the true high end talent.

And let's face it, at the end of the day if McDavid becomes UFA and says he's willing to sign with us for 14m we'd be fools to say sorry 12m is the highest we will go.
I said (except) mcDavid.. lol wed be foolish not to sign him for $16M

I mean you said nobody but McDavid should get over 10m but didn't specify how much over 10m you'd go for him and then said the top-10 scorers should get between 10-12m. The point still stands that we are in a position where we would benefit more from getting that 1 superstar player worth 14m then we would getting 2 players worth 7m.

Was reported by multiple sources, Cam Robinson and Lebrun, that Winnipeg was after Savard, and were willing to pay what they paid for Schenn to get him.

I’d have taken that return in a heartbeat if it’s factual. It would have given us 3 second round picks in 2026, which could be used as pieces in other deals or kept for what’s supposed to be a deep draft year.
If you are Winnipeg do you take Schenn or Savard? They might have been willing to pay but Savard probably wasn’t there 1st target…

Whats crazy about the whole cgy pick is if they decide to blow a gasket, they could finish 10th... which then means we get FLA pick. If FLA goes on another run we'd end up with the 32nd pick..
Pittsburghs 2nd could be 35th. Almost negligble
 
If UFA like Duchene is available we should try same tactics as Tampa with Guentzel. Trade 3rd for his rights, so we can talk to him exclusively before July 1st. Give him 6M for 2 years that would compensate the tax gap.
We need every advantage we can get in free agency. Maybe even do a St.Louis in RFA?

They don’t need to blow much of a gasket and finish 11th…

Cgy presently has 19OA pick:

4 pts separates 11OA - 19OA

2 pts 13OA-19OA
