Smashian Kassian Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 I love to hear the Flyers rumours! And can smell the Leaf desperation!!! Luongo, Ballard, Couturier, Coburn, 1st. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 adater @adater Canucks would like to get Nicklas Grossman in any trade for Luongo. Unclear if Philly will go that far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strombone1 Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Gillis wants Nicklas Grossman ... does that mean he's not banking on Edler signing up??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashian Kassian Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Huh? You're being obtuse. From the start I was making the point the Isles can't afford the buyout. You suggested they'd buy him out themselves. Now you're telling me I haven't considered their financial situation? As you said to someone else? They can't afford the buyout or the contract. That's the point Smashian. That's why a rich team for whom buying assets would make sense, ie a contender for whom the investment could pay off, would consider the trade and buyout - in exchange for the assets. Things have changed - and teams from both ends of the spectrum are bound to take advantage of the terms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shazzam Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 what is philly going to do with Bryz for this season? try to loan him to a KHL team? waive and hope for someone to pick him up or bury in the minors? the compliance buyouts cant be used for this season. i think they will at least give Bryz another year given the big contract they gave him.

Blömqvist Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Nicklas Grossman, da quad? Luongo, a top 5 goalie in this league, is worth more than Nicklas Grossman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King of the ES Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 You can't just waive away ten points of save percentage. That's a huge difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldnews Posted January 10, 2013 Share Posted January 10, 2013 Alright that's fine. It still doesn't make sense for them to destroy there future for one bad contract, I understand the concept of a cap dump, but there does get to be a point where a cap dumb becomes a fleecing. And if they can't handle to pay Dipietro's salary, that doesn't explain how you think they would take on Lu's contract and Ballard's contract and give up a ton of good young assets to do so.
