Ducks seem to be in a good place with salary, they have under $65 mil committed for next season (if I'm doing my math right) including paying Kesler 20% of his contract. They should be right around 65$ with adding a backup goalie.

We already have no cap space as it is. Even with Kesler on LTIR, I doubt we'd be able to fit that contract.

How do you figure?
Trade Manson for 1st + something.
Sign Pietro for 8mil. Ltir Kesler. That fits us under the cap no?

You can fit Peitrangelo if we move Manson and don't take back any salary. we have 470k in cap space right now. You add 6.875 mill and and Manson's 4.1 and you end up with about 11.4 mil. Stolarz comes in to back up for 750k leaving 10.695 mill. Fill last roster spot with league Minimum salary of 700k and you can offer Pietrangelo 9.9 mill for 7 years or 69.3 mill UFA deal. Doesn't really address our ability to score though.
Edit: On another Note, with 21 players signed we have an actually Salary expenditure of 68 mill which includes Keslers full contract. With us getting 80% covered with insurance and moving out Manson's 4.45 mill we would actually gain back 9.77 mill in actual dollars. putting Salary down to 58.92. Add in Stolarz and extra player at 1.4 mil leaves actual salary at 60.3 mill. No idea what our internal cap is but the 71 mill number has been tossed around and if that applied to us we could give Pietrangelo 10 mill next year in a year of flat caps

The idea that Pietro puts us back in the playoffs without adding any additional scoring punch is questionable to me

To me the only 2 singular pieces in the league that could immediately jump us to the playoffs over night are McDavid and MacKinnon. Not getting either of those guys obviously.
This isn’t an argument against trying to get better this offseason.
I just don’t think the ducks are in a position to be acquiring a player in his 30s right now, no matter how big of a superstar. If they were a fringe playoff team right now I’d probably say go for it. But we were 5th from the bottom and 30th in goals for.
The only players I’d be interested in this offseason that I heard might be available are Mitch marner and Ehlers/Connor
Those guys are young enough to fit in with our next core

Minnesota is probably moving dumba. He would be a guy I'd really like to go after.
The Duck Knight
Henry, you're our only hope!
He's definitely someone I could see us having interest in, but Manson would have to go in another deal. Problem is Minnesota is looking for a young top 6 center. Doubt Steel or Lundestrom would cut it and we obviously aren't doing 6 or Z.

I've never been a huge Dumba fan but I do think him and Lindholm would compliment each other quite well, and he'd obviously be an upgrade to our group.

I don’t particularly like Dumba. His hockey IQ is really bad, he’s not someone I would want playing in anything more than a number 4 role.
that said I would be interested in him. I wouldn’t be willing to give up much though - Henrique and a prospect not named Zegras is about it.

Yeah, he isn't perfect, but he would absolutely up the talent quotient on the team as well as add a needed dynamic on the pp.
That + why the hell Pietro would sign with us?

Ya if they would do something around Henrique + I’d be interested.... guessing 1 of our cost controlled dmen would go back
Lindholm dumba
Fowler Manson
Mahura/djoos/larsson + gudbranson
Is a pretty good d core, with a lot of depth.
I still think we should move Rakell for a top 15 pick... with the cap situation he should bring a top 15 pick + Pretty good prospect
Considering Dumba, note that the expansion draft is next year.
Personally I would rather hold onto what we already have on the D

Avs fan here. Rumors out today that Sakic May be willing to move Erik Johnson. EJ has a house in Anaheim and spends most of his offseason there so I immediately thought of your team as a potential landing spot. He’s a useful defenseman but his contract still has 3 years left at 6M. Would Anaheim have any interest?
I don’t think he’d have any actual value due to the length of his contract so I was wondering what you guys thought of a Backes+Gudbranson for EJ deal?
6M in for Anaheim. 8.5M out. Backes and Gudbranson are off the books in a year while EJ will have two more left.

Yeah but this model means we reduce protected F from 7 to 4 IIRC, that I do not like. Dumba would be great, but do we really need him that much? Personally I think definitely not.
EJ has to be protected, doesn't he? Then it does not make sense to us at all. A fact that he has a house here could mean something in UFA, not that much in trades.
But cool, I did not knew he was living in Anaheim in summers.

In terms of forwards protecting
Assuming Getzlaf is a FA, henrique is moved... who is really worth more than a dumba to protect?
Silf, heinen, Steel, Rakell(unless he is moved?)
That leaves Jones Terry milano few other meh guys available... not sure it would cost a ton to protect those types of players. If i remember correctly Comtois doenst have to be protected.
Would prefer to keep on Jones, Terry and Lundy. And actually I think Comtois have to be protected because he played those 10 games then.
Of course they are at least not right now at the same level of impact as Dumba but again, I don't think Dumba will solve much problems for us.

Comtois does not have to be protected. And you forgot Steel.

I guess to me it wouldn’t prob cost a crazy amount to have them pick a certain player over those guys.... but who knows
