The Blue Jackets are reportedly efforting to place Quick with a “buyer”.

Dylan Larkin re-signed for 8 years, 8.7 million a year.

Is he an 8.7 mill player under the current financial circumstances?

He's their captain. Guess they felt the need to keep him. I don't disagree it's an overpay, but there's intangibles that go with it.

Funny how the Crosby Cap skews one’s view of what salaries are worth.

I think for that money he should be a point per game player. He hasn't been, and whether it's the players they have surrounded him with or whatever, I think it's an overpay on the Wings part. As others have said he is their captain so they probably felt the need to keep him happy.

1C's don't hit the open market if you have one you overpay. I don't fault Detroit at all for that contract

I don't fault them either. My comment was based on his performance to date its a small overpay. Obviously based on his position as a 1C I doubt they will regret the deal.

Exactly if they didn't sign him they don't have a replacement and will regress as a franchise

Sounds like Quick is going to end up in Vegas.

LeBrun just tweeted Carolina is acquiring a defenseman from Arizona...Gostisbehere.

EDIT: 3rd round pick going to Arizona.

Carolina’s perpetual reluctance to go and get the big fish is frustrating, and I’m not even a Canes fan.

Burns and Pacioretty aren’t exactly bait though to be fair.

Canucks get Filip Hronek and a 2023 4th from Detroit, sending the Islanders 2023 1st (from Horvat trade, conditional) and a 2023 2nd to Detroit. I'm guessing the condition is lottery protected.

[Three Stars]

The benefit to that trade is that I will have fewer opportunities to be confused when an announcer mentions that “Roenick” is playing.

It's like:

[BurghThing]

McGinn and Friedman cleared waivers.

This is why you don't give 4th line forwards 4 year contracts.

Depends on the cap hit, McGinn 4 years and $1 million per would be great.

No. He would still suck.

Especially when they end up with crap like Ghost Scrub.

Allvin and Rutherford are going to destroy Vancouver, if they haven't already, then sit in PF Chang's having lunch, scratching their heads.

Hronek is a good player, but you give up the chance at a top 15 overall pick (Islanders 1st) and a 2nd for him??? Hmmmmm....don't know about that. Also, someone pointed out Vancouver is ALREADY over the cap for next year with only 16 players on the roster.

Doing things Big Jimmy Style in Vancouver

They are all over the place for sure. The fact they signed Miller instead of their captain Boeser, and now they are trying to get out of the Miller contract tells you all you need.

Coyotes trade Jakob Chychrun to Senators for conditional 2023 first, conditional 2024 second and a second-rounder in 2026.

[penny lane]

So Ottawa is who we deal with?

Oof. Underwhelming return! the Pens related trade deadline thread will not be pleased!

[KG]

Unfortunately no. Ottawa has been after Chychrun for a while.

[Dynasty1970]

Hopefully that means its Miller Time.

Hopefully that means its Miller Time.

Miller is also out week-to-week...so who knows...

Yea, we have known that......doesn't matter, lock him up.
