At this point i think Turris is likely fed up with Nashville's management and coaching with how they've managed his ice time and linemates. It's best they all go separate ways. I'm surprised there aren't any takers with 2M retained even if it's just for a conditional 7th or something based on is performance. He was on pace for 41 points given 4th line quality linemates most the year. That's pretty good all things considered.
I can see some potential value in a Neal for Turris swap if Nashville retains some money. Not sure if it makes sense due to how many goals Neal put up and the extra year on Turris, but if Oilers see Turris as a good right shot 3C and Preds want Neal as a scoring PP guy coming home with 1 year less term, it could work for both sides.
Neal was a huge win in the Lucic swap, and put up basically 20 goals on the super hot PP, and obviously is a solid bottom 6 player with PP specialist upside. He has had 20 goals every year of his career bar Calgary. Probably the best bad contract of last season. Idk how Turris is but on paper looks like a good 3C rn.
Retained value on Turris makes up for less goals and 1 extra year.
EDIT1: Nash could eat 1M or more to make up for the last year of Turris' contract and the difference in goal scoring. Realistically $1M retained makes more sense than $2M.
EDIT2: I can't count. I got both contracts a year short. Deal stays roughly the same, just correct by adding a year to each. but maybe makes less sense since both contracts are very long anyway....
Neal is 5.75M AAV 2 years, $11.5M.
Turris is 6.00M AAV 3 years, $18M.
Nashville:
Neal @ 5.75M, 2 years, ~$1M retained.
That's ~$6.75M for 2 years and ~$1M for 1 year, $14.5M total.
Pros - better goal scoring, 1 year less term.
Oilers:
Turris @ ~5M, 3 years.
That's ~$5M each year, $15M total.
Pros - turns winger into right shot 3C.
