Cause I figured they could match and trade him after and get more compensation , which they could I guess after a seasonWhen you match an OS, you cannot trade that player for a year. So if you match an offersheet, you have to trade someone else from your roster if it forces you into a bad deal.
And why would a team deal you two 2nds for a matched Kapanen even if that were possible when they could have just offered the deal and got him for one. Trading for RFAs is kind of based on what the compensation is. It's why Hamilton got dealt for the picks he did and when the Wings were trying to trade for Weber instead of OSing him, they still would have been looking at an offer closer to the value of 4 1sts.
Anyways none of these mid guys aren’t worth the seconds , not for us anywhere with where we are and the teams with too guys won’t ever let point,rantanen etc... so these chats are all fun and games imo
Only teams like mtl etc... who have a hard time attracting free agents and can afford to just give away a 50th pick for a player next year like kapanen might take a shot
