LeBrun: Nash, Grabner Trade Deals happening; both pulled from lineup tonight (Mod post #353)

[hockeykicker]

Can Boston eat half ?

Rangers eat half of Nash ?

sounds like they need rangers to take belesky full and rangers need to retain on nash, but im not a cap expert

 

[hockeykicker]

It'll be done by tonight I bet... 1st + one of the prospects Bob listed.

No DeBrusk or Frederic, please.

and the cap problem?

If rangers take Belesky then they will get an extra piece

let's not get hasty here. It is just a sport after all.

I think Rangers will have to send a small amount of cap elsewhere before they do it.

Bruins have projected $2.28M in deadline cap space, assuming they don't make any deal until Monday. Currently sitting at $2.1M. As of right now, Nash has a cap hit of $1.76M

Rangers don't even need to retain on Nash. But assuming Boston wants to make other adds, the Rangers could retain 50% or even take back Belesky.

if that was correct, and your probably right then why are mckenzie, dreger and shannon mentioning a cap problem?

Because I think they're working under the assumption that the Bruins will make another move?

Because deadline cap space is prorated, so the Bruins have $2.2M, but Nash cap hit is $7.8M.

I mean I like the trade a lot. O'Gara doesn't seem to have much upside and i'll absolutely take some insurance on D for a 3rd round pick.

Looks like Sweeney is riding with what he has but is adding a few insurance pieces where he can.

Maybe Mcdonagh is in the trade?

That's not how that works. See the post from @hockeykicker from CapFriendly.

Huh, didn’t know that cannibalism was needed to get a deal done.

 

[CupInSIX]

I figured his prorated cap hit was somewhere around 3m. I am sad to say I am much worse at the math than I initially thought.

So who is Boston/NYR trading to Vegas tonight?

 

[Alluckks]

Rangers have a deal from BOS that they are willing to accept.

They have notified other teams as much - told them to submit their final offers if they have not already.

One insider thinks Senyshyn + 1st

It's exactly how it works: the Bruins have $2.1M cap hit available and Nash cap hit is $7.8M.

arent you missing a cap dump?

Insidrrrrrr.

 

[Alluckks]

Yes, plus cap dump(s) and retention - but that wasn't included in the tweet

It was speculation on the return, not a rumor - comes from an analyst with a decent following and good analytics guy

 

[Bryanbryoil]

We'll take that cap for a 2nd rounder from Boston. At least we should.

 

[Alluckks]

Insidrrrrrr.

Not Mike Commodore

The insider you mentioned doesn't get the cap.
Insidrrrrr

 

[JimmyG89]

Kyper says the framework for the deal is there, but there is a cap issue holding up the move.

Have to wonder if there is someone that the Bruins would move out in order to gain some extra space to make it work. Beleskey is the obvious choice.

Would sending down Grzelcyk for a few weeks possibly fix this? I know he has played well, but they could as a last resort kind of thing.

 

[Hockey Rush]

Vancouver would be happy take some salary back for you Boston.

If you want Hutton or Vanek as well we can work something out.

Hutton
cap retention on Nash

for a 2nd + 4th

or

Vanek
cap retention on Nash

for a 2nd
