mll Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 He missed all season with a concussion. I thought teams are not allowed to buy out an injured player. Does it mean he has recovered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would claim him and leave both Sbisa and Depres available to Vegas......we keep whoever they don't select. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlwaysACanuckFan Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 I guess this helps open more room for Fowler's expected extension. Which are progressing well according to Dreger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odjick29willkillyou Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Just another transaction that could have a negative impact on trading CT to a team in need. Although we are truly a team in need Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM_ Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 So what is the waiver claim priority this year... does Vegas have first crack at players put on waivers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhukini Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Why not Bieksa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billabong Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Such a odd coincidence with him. Some rumours of depression/concussion right around the time the ducks needed to shed some cap for lindholm then he was never heard from again till now its almost like Anaheim just faked an injury and told him to go home...like lupul in Toronto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was just starting a 18.5M contract. He might have decided to simply move on from hockey. He's only 25. I guess we'll know more in the coming days.

Its also good for increasing our chances of getting a deal done with Dallas for that 3rd pick. Who's left for Dallas to trade with for top pairing D if ANA is off the table, Montreal and Minni do a deal, and Nashville protects 4D? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more that they were able to agree with Vegas who to pick but that has a cost - either draft picks or a promising prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Provost Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 If he wants a landing spot where he might get a chance at minutes, he is a good replacement for Sbisa if we lose him, Heck a third pairing with Gudbranson would look nice (compared with or alternatives) even if by chance Sbisa didn't get picked up. We can't compete in skill level with teams like Edmonton, so instead of chasing their style why not have some big guys like with with good mobility who can make life miserable for their forwards. Trade Hutton while his value is fairly high: Edler-Stecher Sbisa-Tanev Despres-Gudbranson Pedan-Biega Not much offense, but a good level of protection for our small, skilled, and soft forward corps. Certainly a decent transition step to give Juolevi another year to develop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more that it were able to steer Vegas towards taking a certain player but that has a cost - either draft picks or a promising prospect. meant roster youth, but for sure there would be a pick involved, maybe that 2nd rounder they have from SJS.

Does it mean he has recovered? I would suppose so but I am pretty sure he's on number 3 or more now, he's going to have a tough time finding much more than low end year to year contracts for a few years till he shows he's not susceptible to more.

I have a hunch that Depres is medically cleared to play but it may not be safe for him to play long term. I like the player and his annual cap hit of 3-4 million isn't too bad but I wonder what kind of player he will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
