Kuemper for Hutton, Okposo, Mittelstadt, 2021 1st, 2021 2nd, 2022 2nd.
That is god awful bad.
Buffalo isn’t desperate for cap space to unload Okposo.
Trading Mitts, Okposo, a 1st and 2nd I’d be aiming fir Kane.
I'm not great at working out values for picks and cap space but I'm just wondering if there might be some kind of deal to be had with them since they seem to have 2 starting goalies at $4.5 each and a huge needs for picks/prospects that we could leverage...
Maybe we even keep Hutton in this scenario and stash him in the minors...?
And then resign Kahun cheap to take Okposo's spot.
And keep trying to flip a RHD for a LHD.
Arizona has cap troubles.
They have $84.3M in 13/7/2 and Hossa. Hossa can go on LTIR but Arizona has only one ELC to use his space.
Thry have 5 UFA dmrn next summer.
Buffalo has potentially more ELCs to use Hossa LTIR.
They n a deal buffalo coukd take Hossa back.
Assuming 4 could be sent down and called up against Hossa cap space buffalo could do a
Kuemper + Hossa + Oesterle 4.5+ 5.275+1.4 =11.175
For
Hutton 2.75 +Miller 3.875=6.545
76.15 with Dahlin and Joki sent down
76.745 with Keumper/Oesterle for Miller/Hutton 5.9 in 6. 545 out. Net gain of .625
5.275 with Hossa puts it at
82.2
They could trade Montour for something less ot had Arizona retain $1M on Hossa.
On Arizona if thry retain $1M on Hossa they end up.. 12.175-6.545=5.63 off of 84.3 fir about 78.7.
