carpandean Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Let me put on my Carp hat for a second. ;) (Before any Portland callups or RFA/UFA re-signings.) (Rough estimate with callups and RFA re-signings.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carpandean Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Wow, in other words we are pretty much stuck with what we got :death: Oh, and thanks Carp :beer: Yup. Trading Tallinder and/or Lydman might help with next year, but the only real way for a change is to find someone to take Hecht (or one of the "core" players: Pominville, Vanek, Roy or Connolly.)

Anyone remember Mogilny for Peca, Wilson and a first rounder (McKee). Great things can happen when you realize you're retooling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mbossy Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 Put this in the other thread. Sound right? Without an expanded budget it's tight. Freed up money from Vanek Kotalik and Max 7.6 million. Taken away with Pommer, Timmay, Goose and Miller 7.68 million. Then you've got nine guys to sign or not. Spach, Teppo, Ellis, Peters, Stafford, Moore, General, Kaleta, and Sekera. All with about 10 million to spend. If you did sign these guys for market, I'd estimate 14 million total (not saying I would bring them all back) I still say, get rid of 1) Hecht, 3.433 average pay over the next 3 years, 3.8 next year, but a cap hit of 3.5 may help some of these teams that are close to the cap but have the money to spend 2) Mac or Moore. I'd keep Moore over Mac, more spunk, more aggressive, plays the system and plays well with Goose. Mac is RFA so we'll see what offers we get. If you sign Moore and get some picks for Mac, all the better. 3) Sekera, I like his game, but again, wait and see what RFA offers come in and brings to the team. Spach is still worth some money IMHO, if you look at the numbers for guys like Rozsival and maybe Witt who are getting 4.3 and 3, at age 29 and 33, respectively, Spach has more points than Rozsival, but Spach is older, so I'd go 2 years 3.2 per. Sign Teppo, Ellis and Peters for 2 million collectively (what the hell?) Sign Stafford for Staal or Erat money at 3 million Now you have 9 million left to buy a good D-man and a vet forward. Vanek, Connolly, Stafford VET ,Roy Pominville Paille, Goose, Moore Ellis, Mair, Kaleta (Gerbe, et all) VET, Rivet Butler, Spacek Teppo, Weber Lydman+Tallinder, meh, package worthy. ("in the system" guys and Patches) Miller LaLime (who could be done for his career if he doesn't heal) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac is RFA so we'll see what offers we get. If you sign Moore and get some picks for Mac, all the better. Moore was looking for $2.5 million per from Toronto and turned down a reported $2 million per offer. No way that Mac gets close to that, so that might be the deciding factor before any other discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
