Ceyton posted:I'd be fine with that. Oilers get 4 1st round picks as compensation, some other team gets cap hell and a single point of failure. You just know he's going to get run out of town or leave as a UFA anyway. All of that goes for Draisaitl too. 4 first round picks for mcdavid would be a bad trade for the oilers though and presumably whichever team gets him will be in the top half of the league for those 4 years

paying a first round pick and having reaves get elbowed into the next dimension by the czechoslovakian hitman would be cool

i had a dream where shane doan goes to the red wings for 2x4MM and he gets the A but hanzal getting like 5 years from them and loving up his back again and getting bought out would be another funny possibility

Glambags posted:Ok so the rangers still need centers and defenseman. Thank you to Jeff Gorton for restocking the pantry but we still need to put players on the ice. I am now very concerned that the rangers will be the rangers and sign aging free agents to bad deals now that they have cap space. *COUGHS* joe thornton this was sort of my thought. why was everyone in such a rush to trade stepan

and 1.5MM is way the gently caress off for jumbo. coyotes fans wanted him at 2x10MM or something ridiculous before we had stepan because we had a shipping container of money to spend to hit the cap floor. now we only have like 5MM left to go so who knows

burmistrov is a free agent too now. i'd rather have him over cousins or richardson but whatever. he looked revitalized in the 30 games or so we had him. also the coyotes have 2 right handed skaters on the roster now

Kilza posted:https://twitter.com/FriedgeHNIC/status/879496549402914816 It's nothing to sneeze at but basically the pitiful return I expected. Teams were making trades to balance their roster so they basically knew who they would lose, and vegas is stuck holding the bag at the end after all those roster moves, so the option is to trade for a guy that's like fifth? best on some bad teams or sign a free agent or stand pat

ThinkTank posted:when they had like a 5% chance of making the playoffs made a deadline deal for Mikkel Boedker (admittedly for not that much in retrospect). This trade is looking worse and worse though. kyle wood they got through the trade put up 43 points in 68 games in the ahl at age 20 and looks legit and that second round compensatory pick turned into chychrun. Even Tanguay put up 13 points in 18 games when we got him, more than half of what he did in 52 games with the avs that year, although that's probably worth more to the avs for what they didn't get out of him than what the coyotes did get out of him.

it's weird because 2 years from now their UFAs they can get rid of by then are fayne, the korpedo's buyout, letestu, and maroon. their core group for better or worse is all out into the 2020s. i think they should have just buried him to get actual relief in 2019 and 2020

ThinkTank posted:You can't buyout during the season, but this make some sense. Cap space is cumulative, so rather than spending to the cap now Chia is giving himself a bit of freedom to make a move at the deadline. $2M today can mean adding $6ish of salary at the deadline. That's a good player as opposed to a depth guy. yeah but the ducks with 5MM in current cap space have 25MM in deadline cap space. short of being the hawks you are going to be able to add whatever you want at the deadline, capwise. not sure why they didn't buy out fayne, 1 year left on his deal meant a shorter buyout term with only 300k? difference and pouliot had fairly consistent 30 point seasons before this year

Kilza posted:Because buying out Fayne when we have the cap space this upcoming season and likely won't have cap space the season after is absolutely stupid, seeing as how that'd be even more dead cap going into 2018-19. It's the oilers saying they want the cap space now, not me. I was pointing out that fayne only has 1 year remaining and buying him out turns into similar savings now with 2 years of a buyout instead of 4.

I think burmistrov would be a good pickup for any team for 3-4MM but the canucks are a strange destination because they're reasonably deep at center. sedin/horvat/sutter/granlund maybe? burmistrov's better than sutter and worse than horvat, but the canucks are stuck with everyone except whoever is on the 4th line. from a on-ice perspective, burmistrov might be the best shot at putting up a h. sedin impression on the second powerplay though

Pornographic Memory posted:its gonna own when a team in playoff contention until the last week of the season wins a top 3 draft pick and everybody realizes this lottery system is dumb as hell too, in addition to still failing to prevent teams from selling off good players to stockpile draft picks and suck poo poo for a couple years all of the big teams spend enough to not get a decent lottery pick (canucks seemingly not counting here), so they're only ever going to see a huge jump in the draft and not the big fall or soul crushing agony of being one spot away from a generational player

Sharks Eat Bear posted:As someone that only seriously follows the NHL and casually the NBA, I'd be curious to hear the compare/contrast vs. the MLB and NFL in terms of superstar-drivenness. I think you can leave the NBA off the table entirely since it's so extreme on the superstar spectrum. I think the big thing is that it's possible to take away the ball from a superstar in the nfl or the mlb. you can intentionally walk people, intentionally give guys a day off during a ace pitcher's start, double team wide receivers, etc, but in hockey you can pretty much always get the puck to connor mcdavid unless you are making a calculated decision while defending a powerplay. and then in terms of being on offense, there's a possession advantage for the nba, nhl, and nfl, from most to least, where having the ball lets you dictate what you are doing with the ball. you can straight up run picks in the nba to force a switch so your superstar ball handler is attacking the worst player on defense, which you can kind of do in the nhl on a power play, but at the botton of the totem pole is the mlb where you're just rolling the dice when you make contact with the ball.

my understanding is that income earned in different states is taxed according to those states also. i dunno what you are using but capfriendly has a calculator and you can just plug in a number and i don't think it's entirely accurate because of that. i'm not a cpa or whatever so feel free to correct me, it'd be interesting to know the entire story https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jock_tax

i think when the article came out my thought was him or his ghostwriter added up the percentages and calculated the 66k number and he said, well it felt like i wasn't rich so that sounds about right. or he's making poo poo up to prove a point that you shouldn't live like you're making at least league minumum for the rest of your life. even if tocchet looks better in an interview than nelson or whoever else i still wouldn't want him. he managed to be the biggest fuckup in the gretzky era coyotes
