A 10-team no trade list seems like something you should check when you’re trading for a $5mil/yr winger who couldn’t hack it in a dreadful Ottawa top-6

In a normal year that'd be a fair reading, but this might be the most competitive season in NHL history in terms of the number of genuine contenders and their talent relative to the rest of the field, and the rental market backed that up. It's hard to imagine that the offseason will be juicier. But I guess those elite teams aren't all set to implode this summer either.

The puzzling thing is that Motte was the only sale. You figure they'd either blow it all up or stand pat and try to squeak in. Seems weird to basically wave the white flag for a 4th. I guess that proves that they really don't care about making the playoffs this year -- which is a good thing because they're bad.

Anaheim was pretty dreadful last year. Maybe he didn’t want to end up on another dead end team. Doesn’t really matter why, he put it on the list. I can’t believe Vegas didn’t ask for the list. Just because they don’t have it doesn’t mean it wasn’t contractually fulfilled by the player. Seems like someone in their front office f’d up.

I’m not sure if I’m reading it right but it sounds like Vegas is saying Ottawa told them there is no list?

Vegas is definitely lovely with how it deals with players and pushes the rules, but something seems missing here. The league would have simply rejected the trade if Dadonov had a proper no trade on file.

This is a very odd situation

lol he probably submitted his list in the proper manner to Ottawa, and then the Senators said "gently caress it, we're trading this dude anyway, we're not sending this trash to the league".

Supposedly the league was unaware of the existence of the list too.

I can't be bothered to find the actual CBA text if teams themselves can't, but puckpedia says the summary is:

Clauses after Trades

If a player is traded before a NTC or NMC starts, the clause is removed unless the acquiring team agrees to keep it, which is rare. (e.g. Nashville didn't keep Subban's no-trade)

If a player has a Modified NTC or NMC in effect, and a player is traded to a team that is permitted based on the list (no waiving of the clause is required), the clause remains in effect after the trade.

If a player waives a clause for a trade, they generally agree to waive it only for the purposes of that specific trade, so the acquiring team agrees to put it back in place.

The bolded one presumably applies, so either Vegas is trying to cheat here, or the NHL's faxed trade calls are not as carefully recorded as we thought.

They got rid of that in the 2020 CBA https://puckpedia.com/salary-cap/no-trademovement-clauses

quote:

Update in 2020 MOU: No-Trades & No-Moves travel with the Player when traded or waived. This means that if a player is traded before the clause goes into effect, the clause will no longer be removed with the new team. If players have already lost their clause due to being traded prior to it starting, they will not be re-instated.

Doug Armstrong actually made a good decision:


https://theathletic.com/3200002/2022/03/21/st-louis-blues-trade-deadline-nick-leddy/?source=user_shared_article


“You can’t always play in that market of giving up future first-round picks, and this was a year we didn’t feel that it was important to do that. So giving up a first-round pick for a rental this year didn’t seem to make (sense), and quite honestly, the quality of player in our opinion, we didn’t view first-round assets as something that we wanted to give away at this time.”


I know he’s saying it of course to defend and make himself look good, but he’s like the only executive to say Chariot was not worth a 1st are you crazy?



That said, Leddy probably is not a good pickup, but honestly I was more worried the Blues would do a bunch of dumb things , so I’m just happy for not that much damage.

I still don't understand why Vegas traded for Dadonov in the first place.

They dumped it in and went for a line change. I think no one has the patience for largely the same roster next year but they felt they were in the race for too long and didn't seriously entertain offers on their stars until this week. If you're letting major, franchise altering decisions be made based on a month or two of games you're planning wrong. They should've been creating markets for all their players and selling early to get a jump on the market (I hate trades on actual deadline day because the prices always collapse like two hours before the cutoff). The talk for the last two months was that it wouldn't be fair on the locker room to trade someone significant which is asinine because who cares what they think they're not good enough to be making demands. This team has to change and significantly if they want to get better. I'd say it's not fair on their paying customers to trot out the same rotten garbage over and over with some fresh sprinkles on top and say things are different this time.

Miller's value will never be close to what it was last month again. If their plan is to trade him in the summer now it'll be a hockey trade because picks and prospects don't move at the draft like they do at the deadline. I guess their plan is to resign him. I'm fine with keeping Schenn, he never had any value and he meshes with Hughes for $850k. Dermott is an underwhelming player and I wish they'd just kept the pick they got for Hamonic.

Oh well, at least they didn't go galaxy brained and trade no one for no reason like the last group. I'm less than impressed overall, but hardly surprised. It's not a bad deadline per se, but it's frustrating seeing this group getting paralyzed with indecision. They've kinda backed themselves into a corner now because they HAVE to do something at the draft or they're effectively capped out of making any changes in free agency. They're in the wholly unenviable position of having no cap space or prospects and didn't capitalize on a bunch of hyper competitive teams loading up this year. They had a chance to profit off teams being blinded by a long playoff run, no one is doing them any favours in the summer.

Because it’s just a modified NTC with the list required. The league checker probably looked at the deal, saw that Dadonov had the 10 team NTC, didn’t see the list of teams and signed off because as far as they are concerned it didn’t exist.

I think the likely series of events is based on the NHL working like any semi-functional beauracracy:

1. Dadonov submits his list
2. Ottawa looks at it and files it away
3. They don’t bother forwarding it to the league because they know who’s on the list, so they just won’t trade him to them so who cares, sending paperwork is tedious and boring. And people being people, skipping a generally useless step probably happens league wide.
4. Ottawa trades him to Vegas, a legit trade based on the list so Dadonov doesn’t question it.
5. During the league call, the league person checks off that Dadonov isn’t on the non-existent to them NTC list, Ottawa doesn’t bother mentioning it and Vegas doesn’t ask. I would guess that at this stage, if the league had the list or if it was a full NTC, they would have asked Ottawa for something from Dadonov signing off on the trade, but it’s not the league dudes job to check that the Ottawa guys did their job a month ago.
6. I’m assuming at this point, the league would forward all the contract details they have on file to Vegas. The contract includes the NTC but no list, so Vegas looks at everything and is like “Cool, no NTC for the year”

Basically general laziness and people just assuming stuff is other people’s responsibility

In this case, the onus is on Vegas (imho) to request the list prior to completing the original trade. It behooves them to ensure that the NT list wouldn’t be a millstone for them in several ways (only can trade to divisional opponents, etc.) Vegas not asking for it, and subsequently not following it, is either gross incompetence or as others have stated plausible deniability to hopefully press the player to accept his new team.

It's also interesting that the sources reporters are relying on so far appear to be from Vegas, and all lay the blame on Ottawa for not sending the NTC.

He's been on Vegas for the past 8 months, Vegas would have received a copy of his contract with the trade, and every NHL team must have a lawyer or AGM on staff who reviews contracts after trades. This is a $10,000,000 transaction, they didn't do any diligence on it, and their position is that it's not their fault?

And on top of that, the writing's been on the wall for Dadonov since the Eichel rumours started, and if they'd talked to Dadonov or his agent at any point about a potential trade, they'd have learned about the NTC.

e: I love the idea that Pierre Dorion screwed up and really sens'd 'em (and there isn't a team that deserves to be Sens'd more than Vegas does), but if Ottawa did something wrong, it would likely fall on Ottawa's AGM, Peter MacTavish, who was a labour lawyer and player agent at Norton Rose before joining the Sens.
