What would Pavelski even cost?
1st + Bura/Kuz + Bowey? Plus?
Then we'd have to unload some money to SJ, so we may need to add more to get them to pay for players they don't want.
I posted a proposal yesterday but some here didn't like it. You have to look at what's SJ needs and start in net. Niemi will be a UFA and they certainly don't want him back, so Grubauer would have to be part of the package we could send.
Pavelski's cap hit is 6 million and he's signed for 4 more years, so with the Caps current cap situation, according to NHL Numbers we currently have about 1.6 in cap space they'll need to send back salary that will make this work and players the Sharks may want. Johansson and Kuznetsov's are two RFAs who currently combined cap is 4.8. So sending those two back would make it work cap wise. Even with those three players going back, I'd think the Sharks would still want more but I wouldn't want to give up our '15 first rounder, rather I'd offer the '14 first rounder, Vrana.
People need to look at Pavelski's playoff numbers, 81 GP, 26 G, 30 A.
So Grubauer, Kuznetsov, Johansson, Vrana for Pavelski.
