Just wondering: I see Micheal Ferland is still out there. I don't think he'd be all that expensive.
If Tanev could be talked into waiving the last year of his MTC, and if he could be moved, would that cap space be served
making a play for Ferland?
Just spit ballin.

Tyson Barrie to Toronto for Kadri. There's more to it, just heard it.

Avalanche trade Tyson Barrie, Alexander Kerfoot, 2020 6th-round pick to Maple leaves for Nazem Kadri, Calle Rosen, 2020 3rd-round pick
Dan Rosen

@drosennhl
Big TOR-COL trade: leaves get Tyson Barrie, Alex Kerfoot and a 6th rd pick in 2020 from the Avs for Nazem Kadri, Calle Rosen and Toronto’s 3rd round selection in 2020. Colorado also retaining 50% of Barrie’s AAV ($5.5 million) as part of the transaction.

Feelin a little better about the Myers signing.
no 7 x 7 and he played 80 games last season.
Still would've preferred Tyson Barrie but it is what it is now.
Love the Jordie Benn signing he is just the type of asshole the Canucks need,and he plays both sides.
Canucks really need to make the playoffs this year though.
If they don't you know they'll win the draft lottery in 2021.

Only for one year. The leaves won’t be able to keep Barrie. Avs got a cheap 2nd line centre for three years.

Exactly. Leaves will need to have more cap if they want to keep Barrie beyond next season. He’ll be looking for both money and term to stay.

Good trade for Toronto if they can figure out how sign UFA Barrie end of the year and I really don’t see how. That being said - skill gets you in the playoffs but it’s been proven of late you need size and truculence for the playoffs. A definite downgrade in that department. Kerfoot? Meh. Mason Raymond 2.0

Tanev wouldn't need to waive, he provides an 8-team list of teams he refuses to go to...
