That's actually Ryan Callahan. He retired because of this. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that's the hope anyway. If Shaw is there to “oversee” Baumer. Speaks to me that Green doesn’t completely trust in Baumer but is too loyal to let him go.

Thanks man, I was really hoping it was Kucherov. I traded him away too early in my fantasy hockey keeper league and he’s punished me for it for years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EternalCanuckFan Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 If the Canucks retained $1M, then I think they could stomach it. Depending on the return, it would clear $3M which would be useful for signing a UFA goalie and isn't a crazy cap hit for BOS especially at one year. My guess is BOS wants the Canucks to retain the max possible and might want a sweetener (can't see the Canucks wanting to take bad money back). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucks could save more cap just buying him out. Holtby at 50% would mean a 2nd round pick coming back our way 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're intent on moving him, they better be waiting until they actually sign a replacement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on what I know of him, he’s another offensive defenseman that struggles a bit in his own end. The Canucks need a top pairing RD that specializes on the defensive side of things. Like a younger version of Tanev for instance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is BOS wants the Canucks to retain the max possible and might want a sweetener (can't see the Canucks wanting to take bad money back). That would be us paying 2.15 in cap and adding a sweetener. I suggested a buyout would be better than that. If however we did retain 50% we would in fact be the ones receiving the sweetener.

Holtby’s cap hit is $4.3m this year so if we retained 50% we’d be saving $2.15m. Buying him out saves us $3.8 this year but costs us $1.9 next year. As you said no way we retain 50% without a sweetener. If we’re not going with Mikey D as the backup we have to find one on the open market which is going to cost anywhere from $1 to $2.5m. Retaining much gets uneconomical fast without getting something back that fills a need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoosh Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 I don’t see JB moving on Holtby unless it’s straight up without retaining any money. If in fact Schmidt is a guy the can move easily, that should be enough to have the room they need. Move Holtby closer to the deadline if there is nothing that fits now. Or maybe keep him all together if we are in a playoff spot at the deadline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigTramFan Posted July 26, 2021 Share Posted July 26, 2021 Dreaming....maybe we can trade Holtby at 50% retained for Debrusk. Then trade Debrusk + Schmidt to ANA for Manson + Volkov (Russian pal for Podz). Then trade Silovs for Stalock (EDM need a goalie prospect, Stalock is a decent cheap backup).
