[The Instigator]

The hell

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Woah.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

The Preds already have 2 M for Turris, 4 M for Johansen and now this huge buyout over the next 2+ years...

 

[Maurice of Orange]

Now this is totally unexpected. Holy smokes!

 

[JohanFranzenstein]

Gosh damn

 

[ATdaisuki]

WHAT

 

[innitfam]

Why???

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Trying to blow up and change the construction of the team I guess…

Smart move, their core was extremely medicore and going nowhere

 

[GirardSpinorama]

Holy moly!

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

Canes make sense

 

[Zbynek]

Why?

 

[Gh24]

Wow didn't expect that

 

[BonMorrison]

?????? ????/

 

[BrindamoursNose]

Geez - couldn't trade him?

 

[GirardSpinorama]

July 1 just got interesting, I have my popcorn ready!

 

[KevinRedkey]

I'm not surprised. Mentioned this to a buddy of mine that Johansen/Duchene was super weak down the middle, and cost a lot.

Trotz is going blackhawks style. Lots of dead cap, suck to the extreme the next few years, see light at the tunnel in 2026/27

 

[Empoleon8771]

I can't understand at all why the Predators wouldn't sooner retain half of his deal and send him out somewhere for likely some assets.

He had 56 points in 71 games last year. That should have some sort of value at $4 million.

 

[Extra Texture]

Holy son of a gun. I thought he had more than 3 years left, but god damn Nashville are clearing the decks.

 

[Taluss]

Wow that’s surprising

 

[JKG33]

I'm shocked they couldn't trade him at 50% retained but they could trade RyJo
