I’m sure they have and it’s probably tomorrow morning before free agency starts. Benning has had interest in trading for Barrie before so I’m sure that’s his 2nd option.

[Trade] Ryan Murray to the devils
flickyoursedin replied to CanucksCountry's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Come trade deadline they’ll probably get more for him than the 5th they gave up today. -
The commitment this kid shows in the gym to prepare himself to be ready is like no other prospect we have. On top of that aside from Petey might be the most gifted with the puck on his stick. I think he’s going to look great in camp and wouldn’t be surprised if he earns a couple games. I think ultimately Benning will give him another year due to contract flexibility and once we shed a couple more contracts he’s on the team.

I don’t think a team hurting for money is going to retain 2 million a year for 7 years for a player that won’t even be on the team. If your lucky give up some valued pieces I’m and maybe get 10-15%. That’s 0.825 to 1.2 mill a year which would bring OEL down to around 7-7.2 mill a year.

I’m hoping he stands pat on the deal that he’s made. I heard updates that Vancouver’s sweetened the deal. From the sounds of it Arizona needs to get rid of him and our offer is the best and might be the only one on the table. That’s their fault for the contract they gave to OEL. I just keep thinking Benning feels like he needs OEL now and might give up too much to get him. Might be able to ditch one of our bad contracts like Baertschi with a pick and sign both Tanev and Barrie while keeping the dollars around the same with giving up less than it sounds for OEL and not have an 8.25 contract for 7 more years.

[Buyout] Alexander Wennberg
flickyoursedin replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Mikael Granlund is a lot more skilled than his brother. Had a down year last year so you might be getting a bargain of a deal. But before last season he had 3 50+ point seasons in a row with two of those in Minisoeta more than 65 points. Sure he’s not the biggest but if Toffoli leaves you might be able to fit in a guy at a cheaper rate with the same production and it’s not like you lose any grit there. -
Also OEL declined the 2nd request from management where they asked if he’d give more teams. To top it off OEL’s agent said once Friday hits they rescind the willingness to get traded and they won’t waive to go anywhere for the year. So Thursday is the day Arizona will probably pick which offer they like more Vancouver or Boston.

[Rumour] Vegas trying to move MAF 50% retained
flickyoursedin replied to Provost's topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
So to my understanding is they’re offering a 2nd rounder to a team to take on 50% of MAF contract while a third party team would receive MAF at 50% and give something back to Vegas in the deal? MAF at 50% probably brings them a better return than the team eating cap for no player and just a 2nd round pick. -
We need Boston to sign Krug to a nice long term deal so they take themselves out of the OEL conversation.

[Signing] Capitals re-sign Brendan Dillon
flickyoursedin replied to -Vintage Canuck-'s topic in Trades, Rumours, Signings
There’s still lots of options. Maybe more possibilities for re-signing Tanev or Stetcher now that Dillon signed. Very unfortunate because I thought Dillon would have been a great fit for our team. -
Different circumstances. OEL gave a list of 2 teams and Arizona seems to want that contract gone. Loui would be going out because Arizona wants to shed the 8.25mill a year for OEL and it’s the only way to make it work cap wise and the dollars owed being much less than Eriksson’s cap hit actually helps a financially troubled organization. Vegas wants to shed Fleury with no cap coming back. If we are happy with Demko going forward and don’t like the term for Markstrom having MAF + a 1rst or Krebs is something I might think about. You might even get a 4th for dealing Markstroms rights.
-
Now first I’ll say I’m not big on this route but I just saw on HFBoards a post that says Marc Andre Fleury was offered with a 2nd league wide with no takers. If they attached a 1rst or top prospect like Krebs or Glass would you bite on an offer like that and trade Markstroms rights before Friday? I’m impartial to the Markstrom or Demko path because I feel like we’re in good shape either way.

Yeah I’d keep Tryamkin. Wouldn’t include him in any deals. Not because I feel he’s untouchable but only because his value is at its absolute lowest. What kind of lottery odds are you getting back by moving him. I’d rather role the dice on a 6’7” 250 pound dman that can skate well for his size and finish his checks.
