The 91 of Ryans 3,019 Report post Posted April 13, 2021 That's an A grade right there. Also, welcome back everyone. Who were you all trolling the last few weeks? Also not sure where to put this but Rasmussen and Zadina have both looked really good lately. And this Erne guy who you all would have ice-floated by now. 1 Rick D reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also not sure where to put this but Rasmussen and Zadina have both looked really good lately. And this Erne guy who you all would have ice-floated by now. Banned from HF till August. Perma banned on RWC. Obviously there would be a different sentiment without the Mantha trade. So lets talk about that one. I don't think it's as a huge a steal as everyone seems to think it is. Vrana was going to need a big pay day that Washington couldn't afford to give him. And Mantha is a much better player (IMO) that is locked in at a reasonable cap hit for the next 3 years. Panik is also a salary dump - not an asset. So I kinda think about it like this: To DET: Richard Panik + 2nd To WSH: unloads Panik's bad contract for the next 3 years To DET: 3rd line forward (Vrana) + 1st To WSH: Mantha Remember, Vrana is a sheltered (with lots of PP time) 60 pt player on a very good Capitals team. Mantha is 70 pt player on a very bad Red Wings team (till he quit on us this year). I can easily see Mantha returning to a 70 pt pace (or more) with Washington. And Vrana dropping off to 40-50 pt pace a season with the Wings. Therefore we basically got a prime middle 6 winger and a low 1st for Mantha. That's okay, but not amazing.

The 91 of Ryans 3,019 Report post Posted April 13, 2021 (edited) Yeah. I just never imagined Mantha as being part of this team's real future. And I couldn't imagine getting more for him either. Tatar is better than Mantha. I would argue Mantha fetched a better return. I don't think Yzerman fleeced the Caps. But I think it was a good trade. Worthy of an A grade on it's own. Buying a 4th for 250k was also great. Edited April 13, 2021 by The 91 of Ryans Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Worthy of an A grade on it's own. Buying a 4th for 250k was also great. I think the Tatar and Mantha trades are remarkably similar in many respects. Tatar netted a 1, 2, and 3 Mantha netted a 1 and Vrana. Vrana is worth a 2 and 3. It would be nice if Panik can return to being a 30 pt player. Imagine being Brian Lashoff - "Brian you've been traded to the likely repeat champion Tampa Bay Lightning, but don't worry, they don't actually want you and are gonna pay you to not move to Syracuse. Do not pack your s***. You are awful. But we think you're still cool I guess." I'm hesitant to give an A, because we only moved Jon Merill, Patrick Nemeth, and Mantha. And Goyzerman still had a salary retention left. A+ would have been utilizing that to move Bernier or Glendog. Or both. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can it be that the ability to retain can be valuable at the exp draft and therefor Yzermann was hesitant to use all three of them now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That could be And honestly I'm happiest to keep Glendog and Bernier out of anyone. Losing Bernier would have sent us from bad to rekt status. And Glendog is our good soldier leader Michigan boy. Though I suspect he wasn't traded because his actual value is know where near where this board speculates it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Akakabuto 1,805 Report post Posted April 13, 2021 Gotta hand it to CBJ. This is the absolutely right time to make these trades. Getting a 1st for both Savard and Foligno is real good. If this was Holland at the helm, a new 3-year contract would be waiting for those guys at the end of the season and Kenny trying to do some meaningless tweaks.
