All the same people saying trading for OEL is a bad idea are the same that said J.T. Miller was a horrible trade. There is a reason those people are trying to make up deals on message boards like this and not in an actual NHL front office, everyone thinks they are George Costanza getting the assistant to the GM job.
That's a bunch of bs. There's absolutely no correlation between Miller trade and OEL. It's not the player in this case, it's the length and value of his contract.

+/- on a garbage team is a terrible stat to hang on to. Bad hot take is bad
You mean, a team that plays defence first for all these years? Shouldn’t it be an environment for a great defenceman to actually excel?

that was 11 years ago.
a bit has happened since then.
Like what? Him only having one season in NHL where he was a “+” player? He’s not worth $8.5 million for 7 more years. I can give you a list of many players his age with much better stats and much cheaper contracts.

How is this topic still going? This discussion should have been closed once we all looked at his remaining contract - 7 years @8.5 mil for a 29 year old who never lived up to the hefty expectations. He’s being paid based on his draft ranking, nothing else. Didn’t we have enough headache with Louie overinflated contract?

Practically every thread this guy starts is just dumber and dumber than his previous one, disguised with some supposedly clever words and fake news. Just wow...

The only reason their "model" worked is because of the ridiculous Eric Lindros trade that brought them so much in return. Without Forsberg being part of that trade, their "model" would have never materialized. Oh, and moving to Colorado to the owner with deep pockets didn't hurt either. Remember, it was pre-salary cap and Avs were one of the biggest spenders.

You are clueless when it comes to value. You have to be trolling because every trade proposal you make is god awful.
No GM is taking spare parts for a top tier talent.
Would you trade Hughes for Greenway, Stalock, Eriksson Ek, Kunin and Hunt? Of course not.Well, with the trades that he's proposing, he just might lol

I am now at the point where the situation merits moving a (lottery protected) 1st round pick to get rid of Eriksson.
It's a good thing that you being now at this point is completely irrelevant to the team...

Or you could simply reply in a childish manner like you chose to do in your original post
I don’t buy the learning curve argument at all. These are professional athletes and many with multiple years playoff experience.
the greatest issue in the learning curve theory is we actually need a system to learn. When games like yesterday show the serious flaws in our system that’s a fundamental issue that needs to be addressed in order to compete at a high level.
if you want to read some constructive criticism I suggest you go back and read my posts
True winners and a winning culture are built by never accepting or rationalizing losses. It’s built by analyzing in painful detail what failed and making it better until the ultimate win is achieved. Nothing is ever written off as “the other team played well”, “we are young” , “it’s a learning curve”When criticism is repeated over and over again, no matter what the circumstances are, they are done for clear self-gratification. If you reduced the number of your criticism posts, people might start taking you seriously. Instead, in every PGT, you feel like you have to repeat yourself a few dozen times. Typical "cry wolf" situation.

focus your “frustration” on the real issues
It has nothing to do with "crapped bed effort" or "focusing frustration". I'm not frustrated with the game yesterday. It's part of the learning curve for this team. What I'm frustrated with is precisely your constant complaining about the coaching, no matter what really happens.
At this point your so called "criticism" is nothing more than bitching of a petulant child who didn't get his favorite toy. Every criticism can be provided in constructive or destructive manner. Shall I spell it out for you which manner your criticism always is in? Also, there's a good old tale of "cry wolf". In case you don't know it - google it, it's very informative. Majority of your "criticisms" are completely misplaced and irrelevant. So, whenever you have a somewhat bright idea, it gets lost in the overall noise of your repeating "criticism". At which point the only response to anything that you are trying to say is exactly a one liner I used in my initial reply - "shut the &^@# up".
Enough explanation for you? Did I analyze you "real issues" sufficiently?

No, I read the post. Hence why I keep on asking. And it seems like I'm not alone...

Read the whole post I made where you found that article and it should be pretty clear why I brought it up.
There are many more irrelevant articles in the CBA, you should have brought all of them and then say "it doesn't apply here"...

Did you read the title of that section: Waivers and loans of players to minor league clubs, Tryamkin will not be going through waivers and he has not been loaned to any club. That is why I said this whole article has nothing to do with Tryamkins situation
So, why bring up this article in the first place if it doesn't apply here? Just to keep the conversation going without any real substance?

What you say is true, he will become a UFA, Unrestricted Free Agent in 2-3 years, not sure on the date, but by my understanding Nikita Tryamkin currently is a group 2 free agent, an RFA and according to the article 11.4 of the CBA it states, (this is directly from the current CBA) "Signing Deadline for Group 2 Free Agent. An SPC (Standard Player Contract) for a Group 2 Free Agent will be rejected and will be null and void ab initio (i.e., the Player's Free Agency and contractual status shall revert to the status he held prior to signing his SPC), if it is not signed and filed with Central Registry by 5:00 p.m. New York time on December 1 in the then current NHL Season." I know that @aliboy brings up again and again this article https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/and-now-you-know/2019/1/9/18174522/so-you-heard-a-rumour-about-the-toronto-maple-leafs-signing-a-european-ufa which refers to Article 13 which is titled WAIVERS AND LOANS OF PLAYERS TO MINOR LEAGUE CLUBS and quotes this paragraph "13.23 In the event a professional or former professional Player plays in a league outside North America after the start of the NHL Regular Season, other than on Loan from his Club, he may thereafter play in the NHL during that Playing Season (including Playoffs) only if he has first either cleared or been obtained via Waivers. For the balance of the Playing Season, any such Player who has been obtained via Waivers may be Traded or Loaned only after again clearing Waivers or through Waiver claim. This section shall not apply to a Player on the Reserve List or Restricted Free Agent List of an NHL Club with whom the Player is signing an NHL SPC or is party to an existing SPC with such NHL Club"
The problem is Tyamkin is not going through waivers and he is not on loan to a minor league club or any club for that matter so this part of the CBA does not affect him. I am not a lawyer by any means, maybe one of our resident lawyers might be able to interpret this better than me but that is how I read the CBA, believe me I would love to have Nikita Tryamkin back for the playoff push but this is how I read the CBA
Just curious why you are talking about the waivers. Did you miss the part of your own quote that I highlighted above?

remember way back...aka 1972
there was Central Red Army and Moscow Dynamo
was/is Central Red Army the same CSKA?
Absolutely correct, Central Red Army = CSKA. Dynamo, on the other hand, was historically a club affiliated with a Ministry of Interior (aka Police). They also had options of mobilizing youth to military service. Quite a competition lol. I had a friend who did his “military service” by playing volleyball for Dynamo Moscow.

[Discussion] Arizona/OEL
in Trades, Rumours, Signings
Posted
Are you serious? Canucks have 2 big ticket players to sign next off-season. Think about the price tag on Hughes if you suddenly have 8.5 mil OEL on roster. Some people don't see beyond the player's name... Also, how will they "deal" with OEL contract in a few years when he has a NMC? Same way they are dealing with Ericsson contract?
