To Van:
Bobby Ryan (50% retained)
To Ott:
Loui Eriksson
Bobby Ryan would then be subsequently bought out by Van
1) In terms of the cap hit if Vancouver keeps Eriksson vs. my proposal it would look like:
2020| 2021 | 2022 | 2023
6 mil 6 mil 0 0 (With Eriksson)
1.8 mil 1.8 mil 900k 900k (With Trade)
The cap savings, to me, in the first two years are TOTALLY worth the measly 900k in years 3 and 4. Also, Vancouver have 60-70 million in cap space in those years, 900k would be tiny.
2) In terms of real dollars paid by Melnyk if they keep Ryan vs. the trade:
2020 | 2021 | 2022 | 2023
7.25m 7.25m 0 0 (With Ryan)
4.8m 5.8m 900k 900k (With Trade)
The saving in real dollars, to me, is totally worth it especially with how cash strapped Melnyk likely is. Furthermore, I'd argue Eriksson is the better player on Ottawa's roster.
