Asking price is 2nd + pick/prospect

Oooooo. I wonder if SJ would consider Kostin more Valuable than a 2nd.

Not likely.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Add Toronto to the list

 

[Gecklund]

I'd pay a 2nd + hirvonen from the leafs.

I’d probably do that

god I love hockey . I love how the refs move the net so they can throw down better.

I think Kostin could be the throw in ontop of the second.

I think Kostin could be the throw in ontop of the second.

I don’t know. If a 2nd and Blais got the Blues Buchnevich, then a second and Kostin is worth…like…Hertl, right?

Seriously though, Blues don’t have a 2nd this year…but that price (w/Kostin) would be reasonable for Middleton.

gotta view him as a rental
he has 57 NHL career GP,
and if doesn't reach 80 will be Group 6 UFA
(if he plays 80, then RFA
at this point only about ~3 teams have 23 or more games remaining
and no guarantee he would/could dress for all

His games required for RFA status is less due to the past two seasons being prorated.

is the 'new' Group 6 threshold GP# posted publicly somewhere?

is it ~ 67 or 68?
based on [(70+56+82)/(82+82+82)] x (80)= (208/246)80 = 67.6423
[(actual length of 3 most recent seasons)/(3 full seasons)]x80 career game CBA threshold

Capfriendly had a tweet for each division regarding it. I think he needs 16 games now.

Maybe a conditional 2nd/3rd if he reaches enough games played to stay an RFA?

That would suck if a team didn't catch that.

What you quoted isn’t an accurate reflection of his status.

To avoid injury is the real reason!

A dream scenario where the Bruins dump Reilly (anywhere, for anything) and acquire Middleton would be incredible.

Too bad the Atlantic can't all play a round robin style tournament along with, the Avs for the Stanley Cup .

That would be a wicked F'N tournament .
