I thought the cap hit from being in the AHL goes down by around 1M. So 1.8-1=800k.
He won’t play 3rd line this year. That’s the problem3.4m is highly paid for a 3rd liner who produce usually 20-20 and play solid defensively? Honest question here
Yes because teams want to spend money on first liners who produces 30-30 or 40-40.
He won’t play 3rd line this year. That’s the problem
Armia and leks are on the 3rd line
So yes It’s too much for a 4th liner
Melnyk is such a bad guy lol
I love Ti Paul... trade Gallagher that's one useless overrated player.
14 Picks!We have 14 picks in the next draft and Weal is only an 800k cap hit if put in the minors. We could definitely move him with a pick. My guess is a 3rd would do it. But maybe a 4th or later does.
You realize he scores more goals than any other winger not named Gallagher or Tatar when he’s healthy , right?And that's awesome. Anyone who wants to see Byron in the top 9 going forward must be happy with the last 5 years...
We should move on as he might still hold some value, before he becomes a Cap problem. We should have capitalized on his value when he scored 20 goals, it's not like he's gonna be a part of the future anyway and he might have returned a 2nd or something
Colorado in the West and Ottawa in the East.Seriously if they had the bank roll they could be dynasty team with the good fortune they seem to have with their drafting. Like stone and hoffman both picked in the hundreds? Get out of town.
Lmao, he's led the team in goals each of the last 3 seasons at a 3.75M cap hit but he is useless.
If Gallagher is useless, what does that say about the rest of the team? Steaming trash.
And this is coming from a guy who has been calling for a Gallagher trade.
so Byron is the best goal scorer on the team? got it.Give Ti Paul that same PP opportunities and that top 6 Minutes and he would out perform that overrated Gally.
Considering Bergevin wants to win now, they will most likely keep him but imo he should have been traded 2 years ago at his peak.
