Value of: Getzlaf to CGY

[Ledge And Dairy]

Getzlaf played most of his younger years in Calgary before joining the Ducks for his NHL debut. I don't see him waiving to many teams for his last season before UFA but I can see Calgary being one of them. I think he would pair well with Tkachuk due to his physical 2-way game. What would it cost to rent him at some point next season?

Is Calgary in a position to add over 8mil in salary heads up?

They already dont have a ton of flexibility and they have to offer raises to Mangiapane, Dube, Kylington, and some other D men.

Dube is not RFA, Kylington won't get a lot (1.5M maybe), Mango will get a 2.5-3.5M contract. Anaheim can afford to retain and contracts are prorated as the year goes on.

If you use your compliance buyout on him then I could see him signing there

Regardless, these guys are getting more money, where are you finding the money to add Getz?

I suggest you reread the 2nd half of what I wrote

The only team Getzlaf would have a shot at waiving for is LA, and purely because they are the only other SoCal team. But Getzlaf seems quite keen on being the first Anaheim lifer, especially with having already won a Cup. Not much reason for him to move at this stage in his career.

Dont have to be rude about it. Your respinse erill doesn't answer any questions. Even if 50% retained, Calgary cant afford 4mil in cap. Are you implying that Calgary wait until the deadline then trade for a %50 retained Getzlaf? Because your post just said 'at some point'.

Even then, Calgary would have to move roster players to make the space for him.

If Ducks have a similar season as this one then for sure getting assets for Getzlaf would be great. He doesn't want to leave OC though and that's fine also.

 

[dracom]

Getz will most likely be a duck for life. he's said he's not too interested in cup chasing and would rather stay in Anaheim.

 

[WhatTheDuck]

Getzlaf has flat out stated that he wants to finish his career in Anaheim. Understands where the team is at in terms of being in a youth movement but still wants to stay. He's married to a local girl and has no interest in uprooting the family.

Any moves the Flames, or any other competing teams, are likely to rely on the cap going up. If it doesn't go up, then there won't be many teams adding salary.

Why would the Ducks buy him out?

He is STILL the best forward they have.
The Ducks dont care about the cap at all right now because they are nowhere near it.
His salary goes down next season to just 6 mil.
He is going to be the first Ducks lifer.

Well awesome, just saying CGY isnt going to pay for em at that cap hit

I think the Flames are relying on the cap going up simply to maintain the same caliber of team.

Sounds like we agree, Getzlaf isn't going anywhere then.

 

[CraigsList]

Been beaten to death.

Getzlaf won’t waive to come to Calgary.

No they are unlikely to sign both Hamonic and Brodie. Frolik is off the books from last year, which takes care of Andersson's raise. Mangiapane requires a raise, but it won't be anything huge. Jankowski will probably walk and be replaced by someone at league minimum.

The Flames got f-ed this year by the Valimaki injury. He was supposed to be a full time NHL-er at near league minimum.

And why do we Duck fans care? We don't want to get rid of him. He doesn't want to go anywhere. They aren't going to buy him out. I don't know why you even brought that up

Because the OP wanted to get him to calgary, so I proposed a situation where it could happen?

With all that considered, I think that is a slightly weaker/less experienced Flames team than we saw this year and without a cap increase or significant trade that's going to be about the best team they can ice.

I disagree. I think losing Hamonic will be offset by young dmen getting better.

But it won't happen. The ducks won't buy him out.

i could see the ducks making him available as a rental at the deadline next year. Depending what type of year he is having, there would be a massive market for him. Would be the best playoff type rental in a while. Big strong centre with a ton of playoff experience. Every team would want him. I would imagine 14/16 playoff teams would be in on him.

First plus young roster player and a stud D prospect. Maybe that Mackey they just signed if he plays well enough.

1st, janko, mackey. Jets would probably beat it tho

I doubt Jankowski is on the team next year.
