I would accept that offer as the Anaheim GM.

Thread: Getting To Cap Floor

The Boston guys are dying to send us Mike Reilly for a third and the St. Louis guys are dying to send us Marco Scandella for a fourth, so I don't think that we'll have any trouble reaching the cap floor.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jah1722</b></div><div>Hate to break to all the Mahura fans but he’s not being protected. Lindholm Fowler and one of Shattenkirk Manson.</div></div>

I have a third alternative: Fowler, Lindholm and Larsson. Then re-sign Hakanpaa (I think that he's one of the few bright spots in this season) and we would have whichever one of Manson and Shattenkirk that Seattle didn't take (and they might like a forward instead, ha, ha).

Larsson is behind Mahura on the protection list IMO. I think Manson gets moved if he comes back healthy and looks decent too.

Thread: Which of these targets should they go for

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>csick</b></div><div>What about Hampus Lindholm?</div></div>

Ducks and Kings are huge rivals and almost never trade with each other and when they did they were small trades.

Thread: Relocating and starting over - the new Quebec Nordiques

There really is no reason to think Quebec would be economically viable unless the province gave the team tens of millions of dollars per year.

Dave Nonis as GM? No Quebec ownership could just follow CapFriendly and get better advice on hockey personnel.

I just looked at some numbers that showed Rakell as good if not better than Nylander so I offered a similar package that’s being offered for Rakell by TOR fans.

Not close, EDM doesnt have the prospects it would take to get Gibson. Closest they could get is

Bouchard

Thread: What would Anaheim look like without this trade

Who knows? Maybe they take Rakell with their pick? Obviously they're worse off without both, but they're not guaranteed to have struck out at 22.

Thread: Seattle Kraken

Sharks ecstatically rejoice after realizing that Seattle has single handedly salvaged the future of their franchise by taking the worst contract in the league.

This never happens in reality, but damn would that be nice...

Thread: 1 for 1 trade - ANA side

We take that trade in a heartbeat. Translation: <a href="/users/Brad21" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@Brad21</a> is right -- we'd have to add.

We think we'll start the season with Anthony Stolarz backing Gibson up.

Thread: asdfgtrfcx

Hillis is a center of no particular distinction and is rated below Zegras, Steel, Lundestrom, Groulx and Morand. Pezzetta is an even less promising LW, where we already have a surplus; moreover, some of our unsigned LW prospects (like Badini and McLaughlin) are rated well above him. Neither looks likely to ever see NHL ice during an actual game. Guhle, on the other hand, is a very good prospect, and we have no need to get rid of Kesler's contract. Sorry, not interested in the slightest.

Thread: To My Fellow Anaheim Fans and Other Deep Thinking Friends

1.) Regardless of any expansion deals I do that tirade as ANA we don’t need to protect Johnson.

2.) I am firmly against any expansion deals this time around, it would not be worth whoever we lose (one of Heinen, Milano, Shattenkirk, Manson, or in this scenario Johnson)

Protection
Henrique
Rakell
Silf
Terry
Lundestrom
Jones/Heinen/Milano
Steel

Fowler
Lindholm
Whomever plays better out of Shattenkirk/Manson

Gibson

Notable exposed
Milano
Heinen
Shattenkirk/Manson
Deslauriers
Guhle
Larsson
Stolarz
Johnson

3.) unless we are only giving up a 2021 3rd rounder the price is too high

Thread: Trading William Bystander

nylander is better, younger, and signed longer than rakell

also, manson is not nearly the player he once was, Muzzin is better and he only cost us a 1st, a 4th liner and a meh prospect

if we're trading nylander to anaheim I want fowler or drysdale coming back the other way. they would obv never do that, but that's why you don't trade nylander for anything other than a #1 dman with term

Thread: Trading William Bystander

Not sure everyone is so high on trading Holl. The guy had usage/results comparable to Colton Parayko last season and is signed to value and term. He will for sure get the opportunity to do it again next season.

Thread: 2020-21

Ladd is a pure cap dump (if he doesn't retire) and Komarov isn't much better, so what you have going with them isn't going to get you an NHL player. Maybe a sixth or seventh, at best.
