Popular Post SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted October 10, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 10, 2020 Crazy to think, if we just traded Eriksson and Sutter, we could afford to sign Pietrangelo as high as 8.75M-9.25M, Toffoli as high as 5M-5.5M, and still room re-sign Gaudette, Leivo, and fill out a 23 man roster. So what would folks pay? Personally, I‘d easily give up a first, a second, and the rights to Virtanen. That should provide more than enough sweeteners to move Eriksson and Sutter. Miller-Pettersson-Toffoli/Boeser Pearson-Horvat-Boeser/Toffoli Roussel-Gaudette-Ferland/Leivo Motte-Beagle-MacEwen Michaelis Hughes-Pietrangelo Edler-Myers Juolevi-Benn Rathbone-Rafferty Demko Holtby Pretty much any 23 man permutation of that roster fits under the cap, once Eriksson and Sutter are gone. Even with Baertschi on the books (but buried), it still fits under the cap. Could even afford to add another free agent, if Ferland is LTIR. Just need to move Eriksson and Sutter. 1 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would be best case scenario right now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HKSR Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 You almost get a feeling like Benning is after this guy given what happened with Marky and Tanev. The cap hit on AP would likely be around what the cap hit on OEL is. One bad contract moved out and this is a real possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkyard Dog Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 I wonder how much it would cost to get rid of Eriksson. Surely not as much as we might have given up for OEL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotcha. I think I'd do it but is chasing goal posts in free agency worth it. What if we offered that first for Cernak and see what nexr year brings? Just spitballing.

Outside of Hughes, Edler and Joulevi are the small guys at 6’3, haha. I just had this feeling that AP wasn’t even considering Van as a destination, but now I’m starting to get a feeling that JB may be big game hunting now. I think a player of AP’s caliber is needed if JB pulls out the stops on moving out bad contracts too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got a trade relationship with TBL, could be an avenue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s basically like trading a first for Pietrangelo. Seems worth it to me. Only think I hope is that a contract only goes 5 years max. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likely needs more than a first but that’s the main piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely, our squad gave Vegas a run for their money and we had a piss poor blueline. Add Pietrangelo to it and we are fighting Dallas for a spot in the big dance. Our prospect pool is deep enough I think we can lose a 1st rounder and maybe Lind/Juolevi/Virtanen to get Eriksson on up outta here. It really boils down to what Pietrangelo makes. Given the state of the market who knows maybe 7.5-8m per isn't outta the question for him. Cheaper than OEL and he does more. I like our prospect pool enough to dump resources into moving Eriksson if it means bringing back Toffoli and adding Pietrangelo. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
