Devilsfan118 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Well, day 1 is in the books. Can't say the Devils were quiet.. since we signed someone technically lol Very curious to see how the offer sheet situation pans out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anhkheg Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 1 minute ago, Neb00rs said: The Rangers have 8.77M left in cap space to sign Jacob Trouba, Brendan Lemieux, Pavel Buchnevich, Anthony Deangelo, and give Gregg McKegg whatever he got. They're going to need to get rid of someone and they have a host of names that could be candidates to be shipped out. Lots of 3M+ AAV contracts with 1-2 years remaining. There's a lot of moves for Shero to make. These are the teams in near cap trouble, including the Rangers as well.

Derlique Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Does Winnipeg match at 5 year, 6.2 million dollar offer sheet for Kyle Connor? Compensation is a first and a third Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be very Ray-like to sit back, let the chips fall into place and then use that remaining abundance of cap space to steal another player.

Agreed. Shero, I said it before the Subban trade, is a patient GM, he waits for the fruit to ripen before plucking it from the tree. I am still flummoxed at the Simmonds signing but want to know what he was thinking. Edited July 1, 2019 by Anhkheg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So.. what's the number, in your opinion? Keep in mind we don't have our 2nd round pick. So any compensation involving that pick is automatically out of the question.

That level above it, maybe not. If Ray were serious about anything other than the four first round pick offersheet, he would have put something else in the Subban deal.

The former helps the Rangers and latter hurts us too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe, you pay the compensation as the picks are available. The five year window is if one year you don't have a draft pick already. If you have the picks in all five years, you lose the first four. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe they should fix the whole RFA approach (the 5 year rule, compensation structure, etc.), then the cap issues related to taxes and currency fluctuations. At the least state tax differences should be addressed, so it could mean different teams have different caps while leaving standard of living out. The taxes alone will complicate things enough.

There is no real way to address the differences in taxes that doesn't penalize teams in high tax states and countries. It's enough that it ranges from states like Florida with no state income tax to states like California and NJ with high state income tax, but then you've got the difference in Canadian income tax systems from province to province. When you add in the fact that Canadian teams bring in revenue in CAD and have to payroll in USD (effectively, they actually pay in CAD adjusted to USD value) with all the fluctuations involved in that exchange this would be a nightmare for even a motivated league to solve. This isn't that motivated of a league to solve these particular problems. The salary cap system as it stands has brought teams within enough of a range of one another that it has alleviated most of the issues of teams declaring bankruptcy for the most part and the teams that are too weak even with the current system would remain too weak even if the tax and currency issues were fully addressed.

Aitchmack Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 According to the Binghamton site two defenders (Matt Tennyson and Dakota Mermis) and one forward (Ben Street) have been signed to two-way contracts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could probably weight it if they wanted to. Which, you're right they probably don''t and as you say, league parity is pretty damn good. The real problem is that it's only one factor that makes your team more desireable for UFAs. Okay, maybe it's a significant factor, but if you account for it, you have to start accounting for everything else too. Should the league account for teams that are in big attractive cities like NYC or Chicago? Should the league account for teams that can offer more money up front because of higher revenues? Should the league account for team success, as that is probably one of the biggest UFA draws? No matter what, it's never going to be completely fair, and teams with less factors that contribute to the overall attractiveness of signing with them will always have more trouble luring players in. Ultimately, the hard cap and RFA system are good enough to make it so every team can put a good enough team together to win. I do think we've seen more stacked teams in TB, NSH, and DAL, than maybe we've seen before. But, clearly the disparity isn't so acute that those teams are shoo-ins to win the Cup.
