I just hope we spend this newfound cap space wisely. Full confidence in Jim and Patrik. Look what they’ve done in one year. 2 5 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DrJockitch Posted November 29, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 29, 2023 Posted this in the other one but if sign Bear, or Kessel after Dec 1 they would need to go on waivers before joining team. So had to get it done now otherwise probably would have done better at TDL with retention. 2 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming we do somehow find ourselves under the cap (ie. without needing LTIR space), do we get to accrue cap space and not have to bump ELC bonuses to next year? (edit - assuming we are able to accrue enough to deal with bonuses, of course) Edited November 29, 2023 by 6of1_halfdozenofother 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's in the works that we need cap right now? Because Canucks need space to make a trade work. They'll clearly a playoff team this year why wait to try to fix the RHd problem? We were never getting more than at most a 3rd And that if he played in the top six and scored a lot more than he is. Was chance not worth taking. They at least need Bear or I'm hoping something else in the works 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DeNiro Posted November 29, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 29, 2023 11 minutes ago, Mike Vanderhoek said: well gained an asset for a pending UFA and opened up over $ 4m in cap space. Not the worst deal, as a fan I thought he was worth more but the cap space alone is worth quite a bit moving forward. This is an awesome deal! Do you know how hard it is to move cap space right now? Nobody is able to without paying big. Management just jumped on the Perry/Hall situation and were able to dump 4 mil for nothing. Now they’re free to address this teams real need which is a top 4 D. Nice bit of work. 6 1 5 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps Edler coming back for a last ride? Bear isn't supposed to be ready till Late December. I'm hoping its another trade and they can send a player and pick for a bigger name RHD of course. Maybe they can make a Bear signing work when they're sure he's ready, he needs nhl practices before it should even be considered 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they need $$$ for Bear immediately I'd consider retaining & giving him away for like a 7th. This was what I said a week ago, so to get a 5th back & move the full salary is a big win in my books. Could be a good move for Chicago too. If he gets back to scoring he could return a better pick 50% retain at the deadline (like we originally hoped). Win - win, nice move. Ethan Bear coming back soon? We need him. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
