Thread: Travares trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Penguinstanleycup</b></div><div>I believe that Travares will be traded this December or January to either these team and you have a say who he will go to put it below
1. Carolina Hurricanes
2. Dallas Stars
3. Philadelphia Flyers
4. San Jose Sharks
5. Florida Panthers
(6. Winnipeg Jets).</div></div>

I don't really see DAL, PHI, FLO, WIN, CAR making a hard push trading for Tavares. DAL simply can't until Spezza's contract expires and he'll be almost impossible to move with his NMC. PHI already have a bunch of centers, FLO doesn't have the cash due to their internal budget and them already paying huge money to Ekblad, Barkov, Huberdeau, Yandle. and WIN needs defense, their offense is just fine. CAR also have an internal budget, and they will be getting awfully close to the cap next year when Slavin and Pesce's big contracts start.

SJ is a realistic option! I would say STL will be one of the top contenders, and you can bet NYI neighbors (NJD and NYR) will be trying as well. and I can tell you that MTL will do as much as possible to stay in the mix, because they will have the cap to match almost any offer Tavares receives.

My TOP list

1. <strong>New York Islanders</strong> - I still think him staying is the most likely, if NYI remain close to a playoff spot, 100% he stay, I highly doubt Tavares is the type of guy that would abandon his teammates mid season, especially if there are close to the playoffs, I've also never seen a Captain do that too. And he holds all the power as well, if he asks the team to wait till the offseason, NYI will do it, because Tavares is their franchise, and no matter what return the Islanders get if they trade him, if it's not a star player coming back, the team will get a name change to the Nordiques if you know what I mean. ;)

2. <strong>St-Louis Blues</strong> - If Tavares leaves, it's because he wants to win, and STL have basically everything he's looking for. With Stastny coming off the books, they will have the cap space, they have a strong defensive squad, good goaltending, and what better sales pitch to tell someone their linemate will be freakin Tarasenko! easy choice.

3. <strong>San Jose Sharks </strong> - with Thornton coming off the books, SJ are almost carbon copies of STL, good D, great Goaltending, and California is a desirable place.

4. <strong>New York Rangers</strong> - I put the Rangers because they are always after the top guy, ALWAYS! and I'm willing to bet NYR will manage to make cap space for him (Nash's $7.8mil cap hit is gone next year), extra bonus is that the team can say to Tavares that he doesn't have to move lol

5. <strong>Montreal Canadiens </strong> - This is probably more wishful thinking, but you know MTL will do the whole historic sales pitch. "You would be the greatest forward MTL has had since Guy Lafleur! You will have endorsements until the end of your days! Blah blah blah same old same old. I think MTL best chances at Tavares is trading for him and extending him before he hits open market, because if he does, they''ll be too many other options where another teams will show to have a better roster and not have the taxes MTL has.

Thread: JOIN THE GM GAME - AGM'S NEEDED!
I wanted to post this advertisement for users to consider joining the 2019-20 GM Game

You should swing by the "GM Game 2019-20" forum located in the Forums section of CapFriendly.

The way this game operates is having 31 people like you and me, pretending to be fake GMs of each franchise. You'd get to act as if you were in charge of a team. You would negotiate deals with our GMs, make trades, and everything else that happens in real life, that an actual GM would do. There would also be free agency, the draft, expansion, and more during the offseason; in additions to the power rankings released every month.

You would start out as an Assistant General Manager, but you would be a great addition to this fun game. GM spots open up as GMs are fired/leave, and AGMs would take over their spots.

If you have any questions, please check out the GM Game 2018-19 forum at: <a href="https://capfriendly.com/forums/gm-game-v3" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://capfriendly.com/forums/gm-game-v3</a>

Thank you,

Thread: Tavares watch 2017-2018
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>rangersandislesfan</b></div><div><div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DarylthePony</b></div><div>If I’m John Tavares right now I’d be looking for a way out of New York. He’s in his prime and his window is limited like all players. The Isles will do all they can to keep him but in the end a sign and trade may be the solution. Tavares deserves a good team, a good GM, and a good arena, and NYI can’t give him that.

My top destinations (not listed in order):
Carolina Hurricanes
Montreal Canadiens
St. Louis Blues</div></div>

you're saying you wouldn't even consider re-signing?</div></div>

If I were him, no. This is an opportunity for him to go to a team with legitimate Cup odds, not a team that is in a never ending retool/rebuild. Carolina is a young team on the rise, if Columbus could free up the cap space they'd be a fantastic fit, Montreal with Tavares puts them right behind Tampa, and I've already touched on St. Louis.

All of these teams also have actual hockey rinks to play at, which is appealing to players.
