  1. Sure, absolutely. They will do that with Petey too. But the $4 million is what is on the books for next year. In 2024 they will have alot more cap space. Beau will probably be gone, Myers, Pearson, Boeser, maybe Garland, plus the cap is going up by $4 million...
  2. You probably couldn't trade Horvat for Hronek straight up if it was just a one for one deal. Some people don't seem to understand that. They think a scoring centre who is average defensively is worth more than a 50+ point top 4 RHD who is 25 and can run a power play. Sometimes I wonder how some people actually follow hockey...
  3. Why trade for Hronek if you then are trading Miller and Demko? Makes no sense. They are not rebuilding. In fact, they will probably add 2-3 UFA's in the summer to fix the defence. A Miller trade has a 0% chance of happening right now...
  4. Most likely there are other moves being made. Boeser and Garland are probably in play. Myers gets traded in the summer. OEL trade, LTIR, buyout. Lots of moving parts here. Like Tocchet said, one bite at a time...
  5. Honestly, BO for Hronek straight up would have been a home run. Adding Beau and Raty and a 4th for a 2nd is a grand slam...
  6. Beauviller will be traded next year at the deadline and we probably get a 2nd rounder for him. So the deal looks even better. Also, we wouldn't be adding $5 million in cap next year because if we had kept Horvat his contract would be $8.5 million. Hronek and Beau together is actually $400k less...
  7. Hronek is Czech not Swedish. Also, he still has another year on his contract, so we are not negotiating with him this summer...
  8. So the full deal is: Bo Horvat 2023 2nd round pick for Filip Hronek Anthony Beauvillier Aatu Raty 2023 4th round pick If we were trading BO and our 2nd and we got that return back in one trade, would that not be a good trade? I think it would be a home run. Need to look at the bigger picture here...
  9. OEL can't play with Hughes or with Hronek. He's either on the 3rd pairing or he's not on the team. Pretty simple really. Is JR going let him take up $7.26 million in cap space to play 3rd pairing minutes? Is Aquilini gonna pay him $10.5 million (his next year's salary) to play on the 3rd pairing?
  10. One bite at a time my friend. The big bruising Dmen are on their way. They are cheaper to get than a legit top 4 RHD who can put up 50+ points and run a power play. I mean, how often is a player like Hronek even available? Think about that. Who is the last RHD under 26 years old that puts up 50+ points that was traded?
  11. I hope the Islanders make the playoffs and win a couple of rounds. I believe the same conditions apply so Detroit will get the pick this year...
  12. You better believe it. The change in the D is coming. This was the first domino to fall. Expect alot more to come. 3-4 new Dmen at minimum. And some big nasty ones too...
  13. We change our avatars. I already made this bet but I will do it with you as well. If OEL gets bought out then you need to change your avatar to Petey is a God for a month. If he is still on the team next year I will change my avatar to an OEL pic for a month. If he gets put on LTIR the bet is off...
  14. We just traded a 1st and 2nd round pick for Hronek. We aren't rebuilding and we aren't waiting another 5 years to be competitive. Our window is now. Petey will be the new captain next year, he will sign a 11x8 deal in the summer and away we go...
  15. I would love Schenn to come back on the 3rd pairing. So we need Ryan Graves and then someone to partner Hughes. I see another big trade coming to get a partner for Hughes. Hughes ?? Graves Hronek Tryamkin Schenn That's a BIG 3rd pairing. That will clear the front of the net for sure...
  16. We can just make it a friendly bet. We are all fans here. Just make it fun. I'll take the bet. Maybe I change my avatar to OEL's picture for a month...
  17. We need bangers on the 3rd pairing, not OEL and Bear. We need guys that know how to kill a penalty and clear the front of the net. You do realize our OK is the worst in NHL history right? Why do you think that is? I know why. it's pretty obvious. Hughes and Hronek will be the guys that get us all the points. We need some Ryan Graves and a younger version of Luke Schenn on the team now.
  18. The trash were the guys before him who made that stupid trade to begin with. The guys who have to clean up the mess afterwards usually aren't referred to as the trash, they are the clean-up crew.
  19. He's untradeable. Nobody is taking him for $4.76 million for 4 years and he has a NMC anyways and won't agree to a trade even if we could find a trade partner. I'll take that bet. You name the price. The only stipulation is that if he goes on LTIR then the bet is off as that is the best-case scenario and may also happen...
  20. Erik Johnson is a 6'4" heavy Dman who is perfect for the 3rd pairing for Colorado's cup run. OEL is not a 3rd pairing guy. People want to put him there because they can't fathom that he will be bought out. Reality is he will be and we will get some beef on that 3rd pairing for $1-2 million. Who knows, maybe Schenn comes back and plays the 3rd pairing for $1 million...
