2022-2023 NHL trades and signings

Britishbulldog said:
Wow...only a 2nd pick.  Non-rental, LH winger, 18 goals, 6'2" 218 lbs 115 hits in 56 games.

A $4 MIL cap hit could have been reduced for Dubas with a 3rd team retaining.

I was hoping for him and Jeannot to counter the Bruins and TBay.  Not much left out there that seems to fit our needs and available.

Lots out there still. I think it's a fair trade for both teams because there was no retention. 4M for a 3rd liner is still quite a bit.

If we get to play Boston the series will come down to goaltending (and maybe coaching).  They are definitely the team to beat this year, but even with these new adds they aren't miles ahead.  That said, any way you look at it we'd be the underdog. 

EDIT: Ehhh I'll take that back.  Just looked at their GA versus ours and they are way ahead ... of everybody.  Impressive.

They kinda feel a bit like Tampa Bay a few years ago when they ran into Columbus...

Maybe.  Or maybe they are like TB that won it all 2x in a row.

I keep thinking Ullmark comes back down to earth at some point but he's just having such a crazy year.

With 2 career playoff games is possible.

Well there goes my dream of re-signing Nylander for 8x8.8M

Good D man but maybe they're trying to do the quick turn around. Not sure but he's a good player and signed for 2 more years.
 
Can fold the Coyotes already.  Almost 2/3 of their cap commitment is fake injured players that any competitive team would have on LTIR to avoid the top of the salary cap.  The league supporting this is absurd

Definitely something that I expect the league will try to address in the next round of CBA negotiations.

In fairness, it's not any stupider than their supporting the Coyotes existence in the first place.

How can they though? Yotes have no one on LTIR.

They can put in restrictions to % of cap on LTIR/should be on LTIR or make it so players have to have played a game for your team in order for teams to be able to place them on LTIR, and so on. Can have it so players who are on LTIR can't be traded. Lots of ways to put limitations on it so this kind of cap shenanigans goes away.

Damn, I know Vrana's had personal stuff going on but him at 50% retained for... literally nothing? Could be a deal a lot of teams regret not getting in on.
