I wonder if Buffalo takes a stab. Because seriously...what the hell is Buffalo doing? Does anyone know? Does Buffalo know?
This actually cost ARI more money this year than it saves them. OEL has already been paid 4M of the 8M he is owed this year in signing bonuses. Him and Kuemper together add up to 7.5M of actual money still owed, Koskinen and Nurse add up to 8.9MSo, possibly:
To Arizona:
Darnell Nurse
Mikko Koskinen
To Edmonton:
Oliver Ekman Larsson
Darcy Kuemper
Picks and prospects to balance it out going from Edmonton to Arizona, with cap dump(s) to make the money work???
I like Kuemper and all but I'd be leery of picking up a goalie coming from the system that Arizona plays. Tochet (and seemingly any Arizona coach) employs a down right structured and stifling system which benefits a goalie.
I think people are reasoning that the issue of money is long term for Arizona. They lose real cash in year one, $1.4M, but already gain $4.9M in year 2. Unless they chose to trade Nurse/Koskinen of course.This actually cost ARI more money this year than it saves them. OEL has already been paid 4M of the 8M he is owed this year in signing bonuses.

Jake Bean + Reimer (owed less than $1M in real cash) for Kuemper?
The only offense that Tocchet suppresses is his own.
I dont see any situation where they are taking back a Goalie. Adin Hill is ready to make the jump its its better to give him ice time than not.I think people are reasoning that the issue of money is long term for Arizona.

The move does save Arizona $2.65M in caphit, so that would probably also be a factor.
Just to be clear, I don't really think this will happen, but if it does I actually do see the money making sense for Arizona even if it would not be ideal year one.
or Tobi Rieder back.......I feel like we in LA should receive a 2nd rounder or something.
Edmonton pick is 14thCalgary picks 16th, Edmonton 20.......hmm
Calgary's pick is #19.Calgary picks 16th, Edmonton 20.......hmm
Stauffer of the Oilers seems to be hinting that Calgary has offered their first this year.

Trying to find the time stamp now.Where is he hinting this?
Hope to the god this is not true, if it is, Trevling is fired.
