Patrick Sundstrom Ghost Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 4 minutes ago, Colorado Rockies 1976 said: That was my suggestion (Wood + mid round pick for "future considerations", just to clear space), but someone suggested that Wood is crappy enough at this point that any team willing to do us a space-clearing favor might ask for a higher pick in return. I'd be willing to give up a 3rd-rounder myself, depending on what that cleared-up space would be used for next. The Devils have a few prospects like Foote or Walsh to add to any deal they make, I don't think Wood and one of those are going to cost them much more then a 4th, of course depending on who they are trading for. Does anyone know about Bernier and how exactly that whole thing works? I thought I saw somewhere that the Devils if they paid for someone to take him for LIR that they would get a good chunk of money for the Cap, but I have zero information for that?

Does anyone know about Bernier and how exactly that whole thing works? I thought I saw somewhere that the Devils if they paid for someone to take him for LIR that they would get a good chunk of money for the Cap, but I have zero information for that? To clarify, I was saying that Fitz would likely be making two separate deals: one that would be to dump Wood (and then attach a pick to get a team to be willing to take on his full remaining hit, for basically no return other than newfound cap space), and then Fitz would have the money to try to go out and deal for someone else. Here's some general info on LTIR: Long Term Injured Reserve (LTIR) - High Level Overview | Puckpedia To qualify for LTIR, a player must be expected to miss at least 10 NHL Games AND 24 days of the NHL season When a player is on LTIR, a team may exceed the salary cap. Despite the common misconception, LTIR does not remove a Cap Hit from a team’s overall Cap Hit, it just potentially allows the team to exceed the salary cap. The amount that a team may exceed the salary cap due to LTIR is commonly referred to as the “LTIR Pool” If a team is cap compliant on opening day without using LTIR, or uses LTIR at any point during the season, the LTIR Pool is the Cap Hit of the LTIR player less the team’s cap space when the player goes on LTIR. For example, if a player with a $4M Cap Hit goes on LTIR when the team has $100K of Cap Space, the LTIR pool is $3.9M ($4M-$0.1M). Because of this, team’s often make several roster moves right before a player goes on LTIR in order to be as close to the cap as possible, in order to maximize the LTIR Pool If a team cannot be cap compliant on opening day without using LTIR, the LTIR Pool is the amount the team exceeds the Cap. For example, if a team is $3M over the Cap and places a player on LTIR with a $4M Cap Hit for the opening roster submission, the LTIR Pool is the $3M that the team exceeded the cap While on LTIR, Cap Space is no longer accrued, meaning any portion of the LTIR pool not used cannot be used later. When a player comes off LTIR, the team’s annual cap hit for that day must be under the Cap Edited March 1, 2023 by Colorado Rockies 1976 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hronek has been good for them so that's weird to me and there were a lot of rumors about Larkin being shopped since he rejected (supposedly) 8x8. The Yzerplan plot thickens.

Rob_Ottawa Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 That is a pathetic haul for Arizona. They must be desperate and gave up waiting 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muevelos Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 No it's really not a bad return. He's had 2 major surgeries, and never played a full season, Arizona is happy to just get away from him at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Ottawa Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Lol. You clearly have not been following his story. Ottawa has been desperate to get him for over a year now. Only thing stopping it was Arizona holding out for a huge haul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muevelos Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 (edited) When I say Arizona, I'm talking about the fan base, not the organization. It took time for Arizona, but they realized they were overvaluing him. All in all, Arizona got somewhat a fair deal for a player who spends as much time on the couch as he does the ice Edited March 2, 2023 by Muevelos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Sundstrom Ghost Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Wood looks like one of the best power forwards in the league, right guys? Let's hope every team in the league has been watching him and thinking, hey we need that guy on our team. Sell high, sell fast Fitz, replace him and get a better version of Smith if you can. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wood has 5 points in his last 5 games. Yeah it came as a bit of a surprise too…especially it seems like he’s wiping out every other shift these days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fansinz88 Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 Plus I think we are done because of the cap and I haven’t heard a thing about interest the devils have in anyone like I hear about other things. I think I heard something about Lars Eller a couple days ago but that ship is sailed considering we played against him on Colorado last night… has anyone read anything anywhere?

I’m with ya, if there’s a taker for him and Fitz can allocate that cap space for something better, by all means, I’m all in.
