Willie/Martin for Tanev/Sven

Now before you all roast me...

Tanev fills a real need at a great price.
Sven comes cheap with a new contract.
Willie is the best player in the deal but next contract is a tough fit & Marner is no doubt much better to pay off.
Martin is a cap dump & easily replaced by internal talent.

Not so sure that gets it done but feel free to tweak the deal. Thx

Sven posts the same number as Willie when healthy, Tanev is a free top 4 to them, and we also take a cap dump...cool beans

I thought you were trolling. You’d honestly take Lucic’s contract over Beagle at 2.5M over 3 years?
- Nucker101

No, over Reaves at 1.5 per season. (If he were to get that much).

Oh, my bad.

So Lucic at 6M for 5 more years over Reaves at 1.5M per over 1-2 years?

I'd rather Reaves at 1 year for 1.5M than Maroon at 4M for 4 years.

Give him 2 million who cares. We arent a cap team for a few years so pay to get the guys you need on short term deals.

What does him making 1, 2 or 3 million a year for a year or 2 even matter?

I think most here would take Begale + late 1st(or 2nd + prospect) over Sutter


I'm still sceptical that they move Sutter though.

Lucic is a capable hockey player who has put up 50-60 points in a system that isnt with McDavid.

Its hard to score in the league. That costs money. Lucic is overpaid, not debating that. Rather over pay a bit for someone who can play vs paying very little for a player who really doesnt help.

A huge no thank you to nylander..

Tanev should be moved for picks or a prospect RHD or C. We do not need another winger especially one that will want 6 million a season waste of cap space. We have enough small wingers coming.

No way would I take Lucic unless its for two 1st rounders. He is only getting worse. Id rather pay reaves 6 million for 1 season than lucic for 5 more years.

I was realistically hoping they’d sign Rieder and Roussel instead
- Nucker101

Still apparently one of the teams interested in Rieder

Its why i package in Sven. As for picks idk if we get good value when its later picks. Everyone wants a RHD or C prospect but hard to find that deal.

On another idea...

LE straight up for Brown?
About the same $/term but grit is added.
Both are really 3rd liners IMO

Brown just scored 28 goals. Eriksson had 10. Plus like you said, Brown provides grit and is a former captain.

I would love to hear Rob Blake's reaction to this.

depends on the contract, but he seems like a decent target for depth/versatility. I would pass if it turns into a mini bidding war. Same with Roussel.


I still like the idea of signing Tim Schaller for like 1.25M. He's willing to drop the gloves and is actually a decent 4th liner.
