Something like Eriksson, Benn (replaces a depth left D and largely evens cap), one of Juolevi/Rathbone, a pick and likely a secondary, lesser prospect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also don't think we will be able to afford both OEL + another $4m such as Larsson or Tanev. Assuming Benn is part of the OEL trade, more likely JB circles back round to Stecher as a free agent and offers ~$2m.

I think you're about right. I would hope that if OJ/Rathbone are included then the pick is no more than a 3rd rounder. If the pick is a 1st or 2nd then no OJ/Rathbone!

Millerdraft Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 (edited) Well, the first buyout period ends tomorrow at 14:00pst so that’s actually a deadline of sorts in this mix. I’m expecting Baertschi to be bought out, if there’s a buyout at all, at which point Arizona will have to take on Eriksson’s $6m contract to make the cap numbers fit. I don’t see Benning buying out Sutter as he provides PK/“D-zone start shifts” so that leaves only Eriksson. I suppose they might want out from under Dvorak’s $$$ as well which may expand to Sutter’s cap hit going back the other way. I believe the actual dollar figures would be close to equal but Arizona gets out from underneath an additional $17.8m owed over the following four seasons after this year. Whether or not we should be adding Dvorak’s $4.45m cap hit for another four seasons after this one is an entirely different discussion than OEL’s but, admittedly, I know very little about Dvorak’s efficacy. Edit: I suppose Baertschi ending up on IR, a very likely scenario, also means that Arizona wouldn’t have to pay any actual dollars since Sven’s insurance would be covering that. So maybe Arizona’s owner(s) would actually prefer Baertschi over other cap dump options like Roussell/Beagle in which case the buyout deadline does serve a dual purpose for this deal to get done. Benning’s “soft deadline” so to speak... Edited October 8, 2020 by Millerdraft Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we think about it it’s likely a first to get rid of Eriksson and a first to acquire OEL. With that logic we have to give up a Joulevi/Jake/Demko type player and a future 1st. That would be my thought but if JB can do better then we’d be laughing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mll Posted October 8, 2020 Author Share Posted October 8, 2020 6 hours ago, aGENT said: With what cap space? Eight roster spots to fill with just over $8m cap space and they already have a $4.5m backup. Klefbom could miss all of next season which would open up an additional 4.1M. Using CapFriendly it would give them 11.7M for 5 players with 18 already under contract. Their defence is set to be bad so having a wall in Markstrom could be their best chance to have a decent season. They can't fix their D in one off-season. Having a great goalie could buy them some time for their prospects to develop and get them playing better defence. Yzerman says he's ready to help out teams for futures so they could also try and move a contract to Detroit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noseforthenet Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 I get the feeling, with Stetcher now being dumped off that something we don't like might be going the other way and might be the cost of losing the Eriksson contract. It could be Boeser Eriksson and a 1st for OEL and Jason Demers. I don't like the idea, but in theory, the team could handle it. The cap hits are essentially the same and it fills 2 holes in the line up. Not to mention that frees up money to sign Toffoli (should that convince him to stay), then we have both Hoglander coming to camp next year and Podkolzin likely joining near the end of the season. We COULD do without Boeser in this scenario. Then sign Tanev to a 1 year (wait and see) contract somewhere between 5 and 6 mil. Miller-Petey-Free agent/Hoglander? Pearson-Horvat-Toffoli Roussel-Gaudette-Sutter Motte-Beagle-MacEwen (Virtanen?) Hughes-Tanev OEL-Myers Edler-Demers Benn, Free agent Like it or not, this drops off enough salary that we could survive the expansion draft and re-sign Petey and Hughes to good long contracts. Protect our top 6 + 1 bottom 6 forward Hughes, OEL, and Myers And 1 goalie. Like it or not, it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicklas Bo Hunter Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 Canucks Holes: Miller Pettersson Boeser Pearson Horvat _______ Roussel ______ Virtanen Motte Beagle Macewen Eriksson Gaudette Hughes Myers _____ _____ Edler _____ Juolevi Raffertty Demko _______ so we need to sign a 2nd line winger, 3rd line center, OEL could be 2nd line LD, gotta sign a 2nd and 3rd line RD and Sign back up goalie. also likely lose Virtanen in OEL maybe even Gaudette so left him out of the line up. my suggestions: 2nd line RW- Anthony duclair somewhere around 3-4 mil 3rd line C- Kyle Turris somewhere around 2-3 mil 2nd LD- OEL 2nd Rd- Tyson Barrie somewhere around 3- 3.5 mil 3rd RD- Luke Schenn somewhere around 1-2 Mil 3rd line Rw- Valeri Nichushkin somehwere around 1.5-2.5 Mil Backup Goalie- Want Lundqvist but sounds like he is going to WSH so I guess Holtby is he signs for 3 mil. Miller Pettersson Boeser Pearson Horvat Duclair Roussel Turris Nichushkin Motte Beagle Macewen OEL Myers Hughes Schenn (Hughes and Schenn had good chem) Edler Barrie Demko Holtby 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
