    Luckily he is still waiver exempt.

    Forgot about that. Kind of a win/win situation for the big club. If Aman shows improvement we have a solid 4th line contributor, if he doesn't we gain a solid player on the farm. 

     

    Alvin's done an excellent job with what he's been given from Benning.

  2. Not only does this signing give us some much needed center depth this year, but secures the 4th line center position next year with a very suitable player, if we decide to be aggressive and upgrade the 3rd line center position next offseason. 

     

    This might be the end for Amans tenure this upcoming offseason.

    Sens also my eastern squad. Like their moves; similar to Van with a strong O, but perhaps light on D.

    Imo they have a better defensive unit than us. They don't have a franchise altering dman, but overall a better unit. 

     

    Hughes- Cole 

    Soucy - Hronek 

    Brisebois - Myers 

     

    Chabot - Chychrun 

    Sanderson - Zub

    Brannstrom- Hamonic

    Flyers trade

     

    Travis Sanheim 27 years old LD 8 years x 6.25M

    Scott Laughton 29 year old C 3 years x 3M

     

    Vancouver trades

     

    2024 1st(Conditional; top 5 protection)

    2024 3rd

    2025 2nd

    Tyler Myers 34 year old RD 1 years x 6M

    Connor Garland 27 year old RW 3 years x 4.95M

     

     

    We reallocate our cap space by getting a #3 LD thats 1.6 years older than Hronek and solid 3C under a good contract. We also gain 1.7M in cap space for next season. 
     

    Could contain: Person, Text, Face, Head

     

    That’s after a year with Risto. 2023 is not up yet. 

     

     

     

    Flyers get a plethora of picks. 

     

    Vancouver lineup

     

    Mikheyev-Petey-Kuzy

     Beau-Miller-Boeser

    ???-Laughton-Pod

    Joshua-Blueger-???

     

    ??? = Hog/Pearson/Aman/PDG

     

    Hughes-Cole

    Sanheim-Hronek

    Soucy-???


    ??? = Irwin/Juulsen/Brisebois/Hirose/Rathbone

     

    IMO this lineup is better equipped for playoffs and is a step towards building a contender. 
     

     

     

    Do we give up too much? Not enough? Rather keep the picks? Rather spend more for better? 
     

    Flame away. 

    I like both players, but for this to limit the risk of the trade, Flyers would definitely have to eat at least 1 million per year on that Sanheim contract.

    There ya go Allvin.  Zadina could be the exact type of player they're interested in. A young, former high draft picked player who has struggled a bit to get going. 

     

    Could they turn Zadina into a player?

    Where would you put him? 

     

    Hogs would be ahead of him in the depth chart. 

     

    We really need to trade a forward, especially with Pearson showing up for training camp. 

     

    Kuzmenko - Pete - Mikheyev 

    Pearson/Hogs - Miller - Boeser 

    Beauviller - Blueger - Garland 

    Joshua - Aman - Podkolzin 

     

    Love that Pearson could be back, very dependable player that can play on the PK, chip in 12-15 goals and is good along the wall. 

     

    We have to find a way to trade Garland.

    Um... Detroit? What's the goal here? 

     

    Raymond - Larkin - Perron 

    Fabbri - Compher - Kubalik 

    Berggren - Copp - Sprong 

    Kostin - Kasper - Rasmussen 

     

    Walman - Seider 

    Edvinsson - Chiarot 

    Maata - Holl 

     

    Husso 

    Cossa 

     

    This just feels like a bunch of random guys thrown onto the same team along with Larkin, Walman and Seider. Are they trying to look like an expansion team minus the expansion draft?

    Compher is a very good 3rd line center, but will he become a very good 2nd line center? That's a lot of cheddar to put out, based on a hunch. Yzerman has been making extremely questionable moves for the past 2 seasons. 

  7. San Jose - Myers, Beauvillier, Kilmovich, Martin and a pick

     

    Vancouver - Kahkonen and Kunin 

     

    Reasoning - San Jose cuts loose Kahkonen, who didn't have a very good season, although San Jose is horrible. Creates more playing time for Blackwood. They gain two assets that could be traded for more assets at the TDL and acquire a stop gap back up goalie, a pick, as well as a young PWF with potential. 

     

    We gain 4.65 million in cap relief to be a bit more tactical during the offseason, looking for value deals. Take on Kahkonen for one year to buy time for Silovs. Also, I just really like Kunin, feel like he could help our 3rd line with some grit and the PK. Not to mention he has played the wing and Center before, so that gives us more options.

     

    Kuzmenko - Pete - Mikheyev 

    Hogs - Miller - Boeser 

    ? - ? - Podkolzin

    Joshua - Aman - Kunin

     

    Hughes - ? 

    ? - Hronek 

    Hirose - ?

     

    Demko 

    Kahkonen 

     

    If both Pearson and Poolman are on LTIR this would give us over 16 million in cap space. More than enough to make a significant impact. 

     

    First I would target J.T Compher 3-4 year or O'Reilly on a 1-2 year contract. 

     

    For the sake of this. 

     

    Compher 4 years at 3.25 per 

    Soucy 3 years at 2.75 per 

    Wood 2 years at 2.25 per 

    Schenn 2 years at 2 per with NTC

     

    Acquire C.Tanev for a 2025 2nd or 2025 3rd

     

     

     

    Kuzmenko - Pete - Mikheyev 

    Hogs - Miller - Boeser 

    Wood - Compher - Podz

    Joshua - Aman - Kunin 

     

    Hughes - Tanev 

    Soucy - Hronek 

    Hirose - Schenn 

     

    Demko 

    Kahkonen 

     

    This would leave us with a shade over 2 million in cap space to upgrade at the deadline if need be.

     

    I think this would be a playoff team if no major injuries occur. 

     

     

    Thoughts?
