Entertaining offers only for today.

Let's see what's out there, under two premises:
- i need to cut 3M in the deal
- if i take more than 1 player back, the second one need to be waiver exempt

less scoring but better h2h peripheries may be some sort of compensation here.

Any position may work..










..if i like the deal enough, that is. :D

to cut cap you actually have to be open to taking the worse player.

i'm only giving mik a hard time becuase his block(s) consist of over 14mil dollars in 2 players (Richards and Vanek)

Both very solid players, just a lot of cap to try and somehow make room with only a few hours left before lock/deadline lol

chances of Vanek being moved today are around 50%

Vanek will not resign with Isles

just released - he will be traded before the deadline.

Yeah, Isles made a big offer and he rejected.

Not sure exactly how big.

i tried to tell you, but you failed to believe me. Cutting cap in the bbkl = impossible without taking a huge loss.

it's possible i suppose, depends on who you talk too

it goes back to the "some GMs appreciate a small win, others demand a insane return"
