Backyard NHL: Invalid Transactions / PREDATORS GET WILD!!

« on: June 10, 2012, 04:56:27 PM »

Mark Olver, $0.2m (2012-13)
:Nashville: 4th Round Pick

*Kimmo Timonen, $6.3m (2012-13)
Henrik Karlsson, N/C (26 games)

Deal is pretty straight forward I think. I wanted a goalie prospect and Timmonen is window dressing. Thanks Norrya!

Backyard NHL: Archives / Rule Discussion - Sending a Player to the Minors

« on: May 02, 2012, 01:09:04 PM »

Rules/Waivers/1st Paragraph
Stipulation: Only players in the last year of their contract can be sent down to the minors.
______________

I'd like to discuss the possibility of lifting this restriction. Reasoning as follows:

- The NHL makes no such stipulation. ex. Wade Redden
- GM's that made poor decisions at the entry draft are still handcuffed by too many large contracts. ex. Dallas
- The cap number for the minor league roster provides a means to limit over-use.
______________

There's another way to limit over-use of Waivers that is currently used by the NHL. The requirement to pay half a players salary if they are claimed by another team upon recall from the minors. I believe this amendment would:

- Tie in with Drew's proposal to find a way to free up players like Timmonen and Phaneuf.
- Provide a further breaking mechanism on using Waivers.

Please discuss.

Backyard NHL: Invalid Transactions / Nashville/Columbus Trade

« on: April 29, 2012, 10:51:58 PM »

I'm posting this trade as conditional to my trade with Montreal. If that trade (the one where Montreal announced we'd struck gold) is approved then this one can be processed as well. If not it's null and void.

Travis Zajac, $3.9m (2012-13)
Jakub Voracek, $3.2m (2013-14)

Mike Riberio, $5.0m (2012-13)
Blake Wheeler, $3.6m (2013-14)

I make this trade to free cap space while sending obviously superior players to Columbus. I have to thank the Blue Jacket's GM for his patience and understanding. It took a lot of effort to get to this agreement but it was based on the assumption that the other deals I have made are fair.

Really hope this isn't controversial too.

Backyard NHL: Invalid Transactions / Dallas and Nashville again.

« on: April 29, 2012, 05:06:37 PM »

Nashville gets Ilya Kovalchuk, $6.7m (2013-14) for Nick Spaling, $1.0m (2012-13) and Henrik Zetterberg, $6.1m (2013-14).

I like Kovi for his LW/RW positioning. I think Zetter will have a better year but Kovi's prolly worth the extra .6m. Thanks again Gilly!

Yeah, I like Lack too. I'll keep fishing for common ground though....would you take on a bit of Cap and/or consider Ribiero or Berglund for Krejci? Would you move Peverley?

Toronto gets N Backstrom for Z Chara straight up.

Backyard NHL: Invalid Transactions / Dallas gets it Done - 1st Deal made with the Preds.

« on: April 23, 2012, 11:46:36 PM »

To Dallas

C - Nazem Kadri, $0.2m (2013-14)
LW - Nick Foligno, $2.5m (2013-14)
LW/RW - Rene Bourque, $3.3m (2013-14)
D - Brooks Orpik, $3.8m (2013-14)
D- Carl Gunnarsson, $2.5m (2012-13)

12.3m

To Nashville

C- Patrik Berglund, $4.1m (2012-13)
LW - Henrik Zetterberg, $6.1m (2013-14)
D - Nick Leddy, $2.0m (2012-13)
D - Dylan Olsen, N/C (28 games)

12.2m

There was a lot of back and forth on this. I'm happy with my end of it but reluctant to part with Kadri so soon. Love pairing Zetterberg up with Datsyuk and Leddy and Berglund are quality upgrades. Gives Gilly a lot more depth to work with and may help him move another big contract.
