This was suggested by me and approved by @violaswallet , the only reservation being wanted to hold off and see aftermath of free agent moves.
Rangers want a deal on Deangelo to LV which may happen in any event, but odds are better if FL or other than VGK win the AlexPie sweepstakes. To help FL, answering its call for a taker for Stralman, pref a C.
Regardless of AP, basic rationale still applies.
NY wants to move on from Strome, give those mins to younger, cheaper emerging, just wants ballpark market value for righty shot pivot who has tools good enuf to be drafted 5OA.
Strallman we know is legit productive righty shot RD.
Why Panthers need to add/what NY includes for balance...
Age: Strome is mid 20s rfa, Strallman approaching mid 30s.
Term: Strome is open contract, have option to try and do 1-2 yr which player may take in covid situation, tho he likely prefers mo term. Stralman is not a flexible option. 2 yrs remaining.
$: Strome was a little over 3 per and wants 5.5ish; covid says real # likely closer to 4.5. If longer term deal, like 4-5 yrs, possible to start at 4 and escalate, which is same avg annual, but a little better on cash flow. Stralman gets 5.5 cap hit.
x factor: NY would want to flip Stralman as a rental, and he has roughly half league no trade list.
So, for all of the above...
rfa rights on Strome which you may be able to get 4.5 ish and you may be able to have flex to keep down to 1 or go to 2 as you prefer. {Assumes player will oblige but he just wants to get paid, and it is a covid environment, so he may go this low, no lower. }
NYR also add NYR 2021 3rd + 4th
for
Stralman certain at 5.5 x 2
plus FL 2021 2nd
and recent 2nd rounder Emil Heineman
Cap wise this is a step backwards for NY to go two forward when Stralman is flipped. Heineman described as a smaller 'Kreider lite', and 2nd is solid build asset. At that pt, avoiding longer term $ commitment to a vet, after intermediary step w/Stralman, is realized, w/futures gained.
Strome can RW, but if Hoffman or other sniper there, can facilitate such finisher similar to how he did w/breadman in NY. FL gets instant help it claims to want to make a push now during prime Ekblad + cheap Barkov years. Cost is acceptable.
deal?
