Speculation: What does a Tavares Buyout Look like as of July 15, 2024?

[Ianturnedbull]

The future is now. Change is the new mandate.

Tre should make Matthews the Captain, and the old captain needs to go. It is inevitable. Teams almost always make their best player the captain.

If Tre wants to really improve the team then they should allocate the dollars to a couple of top 4 D. They are good and they are available.

A depth C can be acquired via trade and at the deadline.

It's time to be bold. Sorry JT. You served the team well, but you are crazy expensive for a 3rd line C.

Buy him out and say goodbye.

A buy out saves almost nothing.

A buy out saves almost nothing.

Cap space is so important.

His cap hit would still be 10.3 so we buy him out and gain 700k in cap space?

Then we would still have to pay a replacement. So we would have even less cap space to use on other positions.

damn. i am not a cap master like you cap masters. so any buyout still sucks because his cap still counts? damnnnnn

close the thread.

Hardly any cap saving due to the (awful) structure of his contract, but if you want to make a cultural change, then it's an option.

 

[Ianturnedbull]

this is the worst contract in hockey. then and now.

sorry JT

A Tavares buyout looks like a horrible idea.
