Rating All Brad Treliving Trades
That Kulak trade Tre was lucky to get anything so I wouldn't say it was horrible.
He clearly wasn't going to pay Kulak what the arbitrator was going to award him.
The one thing with Treliving is that he has been really solid at negotiating with RFAs and saving cap room. Its just unfortunate he then turns around and hands out a deal to brouwer or neal that screws them over the next 6 years.
Hall could be that next contract unfortunately.

They don't have home ice advantage for the whole series. 2 out of the first 4 games(if it's not a sweep) they'll be the away team and Winnipeg will have last change.
Janko is pretty responsible in his own end I'll give him that. That 4th line might only be playing like 6 or 7 minutes a game anyways.

If we weren't so weak at C I'd say it would depend big time how he plays in training camp. That 4th line is probably going to get wrecked when Winnipeg has the last change no matter who they have out there lol.

Gaud bye
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>mhockey91</b></div><div>why are flames fans obsessed with trading Gaudreau? like yeah sure he struggled this year, but hes the best forward this franchise has had since Iggy. Of his 6 seasons in Calgary, 3 have been a PPG+ including last years monstrous 99 point year. Even on a bad year like this season, he's still good for over 65 points and hes signed to a cheap contract. The only possible way I could see a gaudreau trade is if Flames won Laf, because they'd have Laf/Tkachuck as their left wingers</div></div>
The thing with Gaudreau is that hes not really a playoff performer that will lead a team, and he more than likely will test the market and/or just prefer to sign somewhere closer to his home area.
So it's either they hang onto him and hope he can get it going over the next few playoffs with the tougher playoff style, OR they look at trading him for a strong return before he becomes a rental player.
If there wasn't any concern about him leaving at the end of his contract I don't think Flames fans would be considering trading him at this point. Yes it's probably a season early, but it's definitely a situation Treliving is thinking about and has to consider.
Putting up 100 pts in the regular season and vanishing in the playoffs isn't really what the Flames are looking for. They're trying to get passed the "just make the playoffs" mentality and become an actual contender.
Which at this point, I don't think they are there yet with the current forward group.

Off Season 86M
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ajp_18</b></div><div>Columbus has no need for a Defenseman. How about Dube for Anderson?</div></div>
I think the Jackets would need to add a sweetener for that trade, or sign Anderson to a contract that is more than a 1 year prove it deal at a good price.
Too many questions with his injury, and he's 4 years older than Dube so way less team control at this point.
I think the Jackets either trade him for what they can get now prior to signing him, or they need to commit to him, otherwise they'll be trading him for peanuts at the deadline next year.

The price you have to pay is a higher cap hit for 2 years instead of 3 for a player that wont even be playing plus a 2nd and a 7th?
With the final year of Lucic's contract set to see him play his last season for just 1M out of the 42M, and the fact he's already mentioned this year that he contemplated retirement. Tre would have to be an idiot to make that trade.

Makes more sense just sending Louis to the minors over buying him out in the off season. Theyll save more money on the cap next year, then in the last year he might retire after getting his Signing Bonus, making his Cap hit only 1M.

So instead of having Lucic on the roster and counting as 5.25M against the cap. Flames are giving up a 2nd and retaining 750k on Lucic, while putting Schneider in the minors for the next 2 years?
Essentially have a goalie in the minors counting as 5.65M(4.9M+750k) against the cap for another 2 years vs a roster player at 5.25M for 2/3 years(Lucic contract is structured where he'll likely retire over playing that final season).
Tre would be out the door pretty fast after that one lol

I'm not sure how Toffoli fits the Canucks plans moving forward unless Ferland is LTIR retiring.

Buff just walked away from almost 15M.
Think guys will be considering it more in the future if they're checked out. Lucic might not want to be going out there once every 5 or 6 games just to be expected to play super physical and potentially fight guys.
This year it probably isn't very likely, but after next season I don't think it's that far off from being a legitimate possibility.

Just think some common folk like yourself, needs to understand what earning 50M+ actually means as far as life achievements go.
Okposo has earned about 10M less than Lucic at this point, and he's still a player the Sabres have some hope for as it's their signed player. If he gets shipped off and a team says they're done with him he'll feel differently about just showing up.
The major difference is Okposo isn't going anywhere, and if he does he's probably on his last string.
Totally different situations

Okposo has also talked about possible early retirement earlier this year because of his concussion problems.
I think people are going to be surprised at how many more guys are going to start walking away early from contact sports. Leaving money on the table for their health and happiness.

I think guys are starting to realize they can retire early, live good for the rest of their life and not have to worry about money because they already have 8 figures in the bank account. They have more money than the average person will ever make over working for 45 years.
He's still got a role to play of being a tough guy and needing to fight to bring value. That's not an easy thing to get up and br expected to do every other day.
If he had some major injury where he could just stay on LTIR for the rest of his contract then he'd for sure stick it out.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jdfitz77</b></div><div>Skipping out on the last 1mil, the last year... sure. That u could call likely
But your team above has him retiring this offseason,
leaving a ton of $$$ on the table

It's definitely wishful thinking for an off season armchair team. It isn't completely out in left field though as far as Lucic retiring.
The fact he already expressed he was contemplating retirement not even half way through his first season in Calgary, when he only got benched during a third period (not even healthy scratched), puts it in the realm of possibility.
As I mentioned if they miss the playoffs this season, Treliving and Lucic might have a sit down and see where each party is at moving forward. Unfortunately his contract significantly affects the team cap wise moving forward compared to what he brings, and he's fully aware of that.
If Tre tells him straight up there might be players taking his spot in the line up over the course of next season, he'll have something to seriously contemplate.
He isn't going to want to be that dude on the team that isn't worth giving 4th line minutes too, but is just hanging around the team going through the motions to collect his massive pay cheques. Judging by his personality, I highly doubt he wants to be looked at by his teammates as "that guy".
