    Ovi was an RFA and signed a 13 year deal. These need to be factored into the calculation. Crosby signed a 12 year, massively front loaded deal, again, not possible today, so that needs to be factored in. Stamkos was an RFA. I'm thinking maybe put a 20% surcharge on the guys who signed deals as RFAs, and maybe recalculate the numbers for guys with front loaded deals. So Crosby's true salary in 2012 dollars would have been $11M in 2012 UFA $ ( 3 $3M years at the end that I am removing) so with the new cap he's a $12M player (round numbers, math done in my head.)

    It might take a few days for everyone to check in and approve your methods, but I'm good with that.

    Yes. As Labor Unions delivered livable wages and income security benefits to their members, Corporations found other places where they could purchase labor without good wages or any income security at all. Cheap oil allowed the transportation costs from the new manufacturing centers to be effectively negligible. I think you forgot a time period at the end of the last sentence, the last 30 years.

    Truth. I still think he was closer to 25 than 28, and certainly not in a different universe.

    I didn't get a chance to see Silfverberg play, so I'm going completely on history and production. Silfverberg was 2 years older, so it makes sense that he was a little more developed. I'm not certain the value, especially to Roy, is "in an different universe".

    when Ryan was traded for Silfverberg, he was coming off an AHL season that was VERY similar to Grigorenko's last season. And Mikhail is 2 years younger that Sifverberg was at the time.

    He was tied for 58th in points for forwards. Tied for 44th in Relative Corsi.

    Taro Making a statement with the 1 minute pick!!

    11th overall RW.
  10. LastPommerFan
    I would rank him right around #49..

    make it 60 to compensate for guys who cut long term deals as RFAs, and thus had lower numbers due to their decreased bargaining position. Then make it 90 to account for the guys that are top forwards on entry level and bridge contracts. Talent is a factor in compensation, but timing is an even bigger factor.

    That's what all them Masters Degrees are for!!! :-)

    I'm not certain the bold part makes any sense. Typically teams going on a cup run don't unload NHL Players as they will need them for their cup run. I'm not asking you to make my argument, I'm asking you to put an example behind your argument. My contention is that no team will beat Zadorov + Grigorenko + a First round pick. That is the best offer the aves will receive this summer. I think they wait until the deadline to see if they can resign him, but his value will be lower at that point as he will be more likely to pursue UFA and teams will be less likely to part with players that have NHL experience heading into the playoffs.

    And Lucic doesn't help them at all since he's UFA at the same time. They're gonna want someone they can hold on to, either an RFA or a guy with term left.
  15. LastPommerFan
    The only defensemen you have listed has less NHL time than Zadorov and Pysyk? What is the better offer for the Aves than Nikita, Grigorenko, and a 1st?
  16. LastPommerFan
    Gonna take a risk here, given the injury history: Kris Letang

    Nash moved for Dubinsky, Anisimov, Erixon and a first. Neal moved for Hornqvist and Spalling and Neal had good term at value left on the contract. Vanek moved for Moulson a 1st and a 2nd. Jordan Staal moved for a first, Sutter, and Dumoulin. Pick another team that might be interested in ROR, what is the "better offer" from them going to be?

    Alright, TBPhD, you're turn to take my guy,

    Do US horses need to be owned by a specific person, or can their ownership be incorporated and then broken into shares? Like a "Take Charge Lady Holding Company, llc." or similar?

    dammit.

    My understanding is that the heart condition that Secretariat had is carried in the Dam line, so it makes sense that his fillies went on to be more valuable than his colts.

    I think the assumption for (most of) the posters advocating a trade is that there will be an extension negotiated prior to and contingent upon the trade. Does anyone know if there is any CBA language relating to a sign&trade agreement? Or precedent under the current CBA?

    Have not seen an episode of the show, but just read a few synopses of the recent episodes. GRRM for being a slow douche. HBO for not waiting to cash in. The show has become significantly non-canonical and I have lost all interest in ever watching it. Except for the boobs.

    Nail Yakupov, Ryan Murray, Alex Galchenyuk, Morgan Reilly, Hampus Lindholm, Jacob Trouba, Zemgus Girgensons, Cody Ceci, Thomas Wilson, Tomas Hertl and Olli Maatta are the 2012 draftees that have played significant NHL time already. I would rank Zemgus in the top 5 among those. If that draft were redone today, I think he goes 4th behind Nail, Galchecnyuk and Lindholm. I will admit I gave him a boost with a desire to build from the center out, but I think he goes in the top 60 if all the NHL GMs were asked to complete this same draft.
