Proposal: Moving Bad Cap Around

[BigRangy]

I'm just wondering if there are any teams out there with some players who are of marginal value that they would like to trade to other teams for a player of marginal value in a different position.

I think Hemsky was a player like this earlier in the season, but he turned it on late in the year and now I think Dallas wants to keep him.

Right now the Flames have a lot of bad cap on their D, and not as much on their forwards. If a bad-cap, yet serviceable, d-man (Wideman/Engelland mainly) could be moved for a bad-cap, yet-serviceable, forward (Kunitz?, Gaborik?, MacArthur? idk), it would spread the talent better across the roster. Hopefully the same effect could happen for the other team.

In before David Desharnais offers.

Yeah, I think he would probably be the president of the club right now.

Flyers are willing to flip Andrew MacDonald to get rid of term.
Offer's ?

Filppula is quite a bit better than a marginal player but due to cap hit I'd be happy to trade him for a worse player with a smaller cap hit(maybe around 3m ?). Any team with cap space that wants a pretty good player for cheap ?

 

[Ducks in a row]

Not going to bother listing Bieksa we are stuck with him and his crappy NMC contract

Stoner for a forward that makes $3,250,000 or under and is sign short term.

MacDonald. + Provorov for future considerations

Better on the wing or at centre? Could send Stajan (3.125) or Bouma (2.2) plus some equalizers. I would like to move bad defense cap though.

I would have come back with Provorov for Matthews but on second thought I'd much rather keep Provorov even though Matthews was #1 Ovr. in 2016.

I would do MacDonald for future considerations. I'd even considerate a bag of pucks for MacDonald at this point.

Don't forget that pesky NMC that requires Fippula to be protected from the expansion draft.

Depending on how the arbitration goes with Marcus Johansson and negotiatons go with Dmitri Orlov, the Capitals could potentially look to shed some of Daniel Winnik's salary (or reinvest that money into a 3rd pairing defenseman).

I'd love for WSH to go get another flat footed "defensive defenseman" for the 3rd pairing. Please get a 2016/17 version of last year's Weber.

- Signed Penguin fans everywhere.

Jets have a shiny Mark Stuart they could slide into their press box. He's ready at a moments notice and will even help clean up the arena's after the game!

Have you ever heard of Luca Sbisa?

 

[Marlowe Syn]

Minnesota I'm sure would hear any offers on Pominville. Amenable to us retaining salary. At least I am, it's not my money.

 

[Viqsi]

We've only got the one, and we harbor no illusions about the movability of his infamous contract.

Tyutin might have qualified, but nobody was interested.

 

[Mister Ed]

Ericsson on the Red Wings for basically anything. He's taking up a roster spot for one of the youngins (Ouellet, Sproul, Russo, Jensen). While the young players are as good as Ericsson, they need seasoning to see what the Wings actually have.

:O You would take Provorov over Matthews? How good do you think he's going to be? This is some major homerism man.

Especially considering the Flyers depth in LD in their system.
