GM Game #6 by TP, RR, and IR

[Dichow Stopper]

UPDATE

For teams looking to clear salary, we could be ready to part with prospects and picks for a top 6 winger. No untouchable for the right guy.

PM!

WAIVER ALERT

The Montreal Canadiens have placed defenseman Tomas Kaberle on waivers.

will use our second compliance buyout on Tomas Kaberle.

 

[Water Knight]

So holden57 does East forwards & D, WK does West Forwards & D, and either TL or I can do goalies?

Unless you guys feel that's too much.

Works for me.

 

[TLinden]

Kesler - Young Top 9 forward + Prospect + 2nd pairing defender is the top offer

Edler - Elite prospect + 3rd line winger is top offer.

Markstrom - Late 1st from recent draft + good prospect is top offer.

Fine with me as well, just hope we didn't lose too much interest.

 

[IslesRock4]

SixthSens also volunteered to be a forward agent.

I'm good for whatever gets us started.

SixthSens = Forwards
WK = West D
holden57 = East D
TP = East G
TL = West G

Good?

 

[The Instigator]

Bolts sign some RFAs

Radko Gudas - 2 years - 750k/50k two way and then 750k one way.

Keith Aulie - 2 years - 1.5 million per

Benoit Pouliot - 3 years - 2.5 million per

I don't think he wants all forwards. That's a bit much.

 

[Soli]

I don't see myself signing any UFA defensemen, so I'll take either East or West Defensemen if that can free someone up to take 1/2 the forwards.

 

[Soli]

The Edmonton Oilers have signed Portland Winterhawk defenseman Seth Jones to a 3-year ELC worth $3,275,000 per season.

The Oilers also announce the signing of the following RFAs:

- Sam Gagner (4 years, $4,000,000/season)
- Magnus Paajarvi (3 years, $2,000,000/season)
- Antti Tyrvainen (2 years, $600,000/season, 2-way)
- Alex Plante (2 years, $725,000/season, 2-way)
- Niko Hovinen: (1 year, $850,000/season, 2-way)

 

[IslesRock4]

I'm figuring out the agents right now. We'll start FA immediately.

EDIT: FA thread is up. Agents are listed there. All RFAs are going to be auto-qualified since it took so long to get RFA agents.

 

[TLinden]

Without the RFA tables being filled out it's a little hard. Maybe the RFA agents could PM a commissioner and let them know the bigger names that didn't sign, and we can have an "offersheet" agent?

 

[SixthSens]

Erik Condra - 2 years, $700,000/yr
Patrick Wiercioch - 2 years, $1,000,000/yr
David Dziurzynski - 2 years, $725,000/yr ($90,000 AHL)
Ben Bishop - 1 year, $1,500,000
Stephane Da Costa - 1 year, $925,000 ($150,000 AHL)
Mike Hoffman - 2 years, $750,000/yr ($100,000/yr AHL)
Corey Cowick - 3 years, $725,000/yr ($85,000/yr AHL)
Mark Borowiecki - 2 years, $700,000/yr ($90,000/yr AHL)
Louie Caporusso - 2 years, $625,000/yr ($65,000/yr AHL)

95% sure all the bigger West RFAs signed. I'll double check though.

Edit: Cal Clutterbuck has yet to be resigned. However he was recently traded (see post below).

 

[holden57]

We have acquired Brent Burns from San Jose for Cal Clutterbuck, Jason Zucker and our 2014 1st round draft pick.

Matthew Hackett: 1 year x 925,000 (2-way)

Why would Burns waive his NTC to go back to Minnesota?

San Jose re-building, Minnesota contending.

 

[Water Knight]

Hiller available for trade, if the price is right.

 

[holden57]

waive Tom Gilbert and Josh Harding

 

[TLinden]

waive Tom Gilbert and Josh Harding

Try to keep some realism? If you want to trade for a D-man, don't just waive 2 NHL quality players to make it work.

Just a heads up that you cannot put both of them in minors, only one can be sent to the AHL. So unless they are claimed you are responsible for their cap hits (and although I haven't looked, likely over the cap by a fair bit).

No one wanted Harding all game long. He's a great story battling through his MS, but he's not playing that great and with Hackett and Kuemper I have no need for him.

I am not going to buy out Gilbert, but if I can gain 4 million in cap space with someone claiming him I'll take it since he is easily replaceable. Also, trade worked before I waived them. I had 5 million in cap room before, I'd have 10 million if I can get rid of these guys. Hard to see the fault in what I'm trying to do.

Legwand and Gill can be had relatively cheap, prospects/picks should do the trick.

PM me if interested.

When can we start making offers?
