Master Mind Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 They'll likely trade Kelly, McQuaid, and maybe Boychuk for picks/prospects. Canucks don't need any of those players, they'll go to the teams with lots of cap space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwijibo Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 There is more teams then just Boston who need to make cap space... In order from how high over, to how low. Philadelphia = -$4,936,429 Chicago = -$2,216,795 Tampa Bay = -$1,877,927 Boston = -$809,143 . Philly will put Pronger and Timmonen on LTIR once the season starts, thats close to $7m in cap space cleared, Thier only issue is finding a way to get cap compliant for opening day. The other three teams may need to make some moves to get compliant but nothing in the way of a blockbuster will be required Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THERETOOL Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 there will be no trade .. that ship has sailed .. i think that eriksson was a possibility before the canucks made the moves with anaheim .. screw you boston Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JE14 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Just looking at capgeek armchair gm for the bruins, and if they have to pay krug $3.5 and smith $4, which seems fair to me based on their production last year, the bruins are screwed, even after savard goes on ltir...... Krug and Smith won't get near that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toews Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Just looking at capgeek armchair gm for the bruins, and if they have to pay krug $3.5 and smith $4, which seems fair to me based on their production last year, the bruins are screwed, even after savard goes on ltir...... They won't make that much. They were both not arbitration eligible nor are they eligible for offer sheets. In such cases the team has all the leverage, so unless Krug decides that the KHL is his best option he will sign for a lot less than 3.5M. The same with Smith. Philly will put Pronger and Timmonen on LTIR once the season starts, thats close to $7m in cap space cleared, Thier only issue is finding a way to get cap compliant for opening day. The other three teams may need to make some moves to get compliant but nothing in the way of a blockbuster will be required Actually this is a misconception. The Flyers just have to do a little bit of creating accounting to balance the books so to speak. I believe there was an article explaining how they manage it. I think it went something like you can put a player on LTIR during training camp, you just have to make sure that the amount that you go over the cap matches as close to the cap hit of the player being put on LTIR. I think the article probably explains it better and gets the details right as I read it a while back. But you are correct that the Flyers don't have to make a move.

Hunter_74 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I'd honestly rather not trade any of our youth or prospects for boychuk/Kelly/McQuaid. Trading away our prospects will only extend the length of our mediocrity. I'd rather not have a team that does "okay" every year and has not many prospects to look forward to in the Future. Only guy I would want is Hamilton, and we're going to have to give up a lot of assets for him, so no thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithers joe Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 i would think that benning would have a petty good idea if any deal with boston would be good or not... they aren't about to trade their youth...as was mentioned here, boychuk, mcquaid or bartkowski.... bartkowski makes the most sense because he is signed for a longer time...the others are ufa after this season... i'll trust benning's judgement...

ComfyMatter Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Sanguinetti is a similar player to Bartkowski. Hamhuis/Tanev Edler/Bieksa Sbisa/Stanton Corrado Weber Sanguinetti Adding Bartkowski will give us a logjam of defenseman.. I wouldn't trade for Bartkowski.

LeanBeef Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Sanguinetti is a similar player to Bartkowski. Nope, not at all. I wouldn't trade for Bartkowski but he is nothing like Sanguinetti. Bartkowski is average in the ozone but great in the d zone. Sanguinetti is opposite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pears Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 C grade prospect+2nd and a conditional 3rd for Boychuk? 3rd being conditional on Boychuk re-signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComfyMatter Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Nope, not at all. I wouldn't trade for Bartkowski but he is nothing like Sanguinetti. Bartkowski is average in the ozone but great in the d zone. Sanguinetti is opposite. Watch Sanguinetti get like 45-50 points and be in the the talks for the Norris Trophy. In all seriousness, now would be the perfect time to rejuvenate his career. Give him a chance, Willie D! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Western Red Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Sad to hear we're discussing Bruins trades! Anything Benning would want would be untouchable/low cap hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
William_Clarkson Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 to where? Colorado with Iginla, leaving a void in their top 6. Meanwhile, they have more than enough NHL defenseman on their rosters, so one of them will probably be moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
