Justin Faulk, $3.9m (2013-2016)

Luke Schenn, $5.8m (2012-2016)
2nd

Daddy was looking to save a couple bucks however he could so he approached me about swapping dmen. I feel that Faulk has more value long term then Schenn because of their place on their team's depth chart, the amount of ice time the players get, and the fact that Schenn has proven to be inconsistent, so I asked for the pick that comes back be his second in what looks to be a very deep draft next year. He agreed so here we are. This deal also helps to diversify the team; as 1/6th of my team is on the Hurricanes in real life.

Thanks for the quick deal, Daddy. 

makes this deal mainly to gain another $2m in cap, while not dropping $2m in productivity. If Schenn > Faulk it isnt by $2m (insert 2nd rd pick here)..although we like Faulks long term upside much better than Schenn anyway & at 22yrs old he is an excellent fit for the diaper dandy Bolts.

Tampa is very young, but if we realize some of this potential we can make a strong push for a long time.

Thanks Favo, & good luck with the Canes    

This is a stupid br0ken ph0ne trade s0 I will keep it brief.

Le0n Draisaitl
4th

F0r

Zach Fucale

With this m0ve I am freeing myself 0f a $3m c0mmitment f0r a r00kie. I d0 think Draisaitl will beat Arc0bell0 f0r the #2 piv0t in Edm0nt0n but $3m is t00 rich f0r me.

In return I gain a blue-chip g0alie pr0spect that will appreciate in value as the seas0n m0ves al0ng. He is a ways fr0m reaching the NHL but I have full c0nfidence that when he d0es his value will be immense.

Cheers t0 Daddy f0r the deal!

Me and my Smoking Gun "Man Crushes"..You know boys somewhere in the middle of my rebuild I looked at JVR, Landeskog, Nichushkin, Forsberg, Hedman, Campbell, etc. etc. etc. & thought to myself hmm..maybe I can make just a little noise sooner than later.

I love Pascale & his tremendous upside however I really like the more immediate prospect impact Leon Draisaitl can make to this team. Already owning Niemi/Stalock & backing them with Jack Campbell, i just felt Draisaitl is a better fit. Did I mention that I love this kid? ALOT!

I appreciated the talks as always in FNHL, very professional SJ. Good Luck bud    

I would love to help Buffalo to rebuild (hint hint)

Its a equitable trade here 50/50 imho.
