LGR4GM Posted July 27, 2021 Report Share Posted July 27, 2021 This gives Vegas around 12mil in capspace. If they want to trade for Eichel, they now have the flexibility to do so. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I-90 W Posted July 27, 2021 Report Share Posted July 27, 2021 (edited) This is frustrating, they could have given him to us and we’re not even in their conference. Unless he has a list and our team is on it. Edited July 27, 2021 by I-90 W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoPuckYourself Posted July 27, 2021 Report Share Posted July 27, 2021 A goalie has to be in play for us right? Frederik Anderson perhaps? Had a very down year but before that was lights out for Toronto. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They mentioned the last time a Vezina winner was traded the following season was when Buffalo traded Hasek to Detroit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sabrefanday1 Posted July 27, 2021 Report Share Posted July 27, 2021 Once we give Jack away for a bag of hockey pucks as we did with Sam will we even meet the cap-floor threshold? Looking on the bright aside we should be able to lock up the 1st overall pick again next year fairly early. Isn't there new rules concerning how many times one team can have the 1st overall pick now? Thought I read that a new rule came in stopping teams from getting 1st overall pick too often in a 5 year stretch. Anybody hear of this rule?

Thought I read that a new rule came in stopping teams from getting 1st overall pick too often in a 5 year stretch. Anybody hear of this rule? Yeah the rule starting next year, I think it's you can't have more than 2 number one overall picks in a draft over a 5 year span. See no more Edmonton/Buffalo "tanking". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you on Minnesota having the best options at this point but having teams bidding against each other is the key to maximizing our return. Let's get her done Kevin.
