Wait what?  Was this considered a cap dump?  What is OTT doing??  35pts for $2.95M is more than fair for cap value.

Opening up space for Pinto?

Maybe... but that surprises me that there was no taker for Joseph without a sweetener.

Agreed, but it's probably a low pick 

 

Interesting moves by the Blues

We're doing Brady for Petey

Funnily enough Chychrun and Joseph I traded in NHL 24. The cap structure they have is kinda cheeks. So it makes sense to move both. Keeps Pinto around and lets you add other pieces. Although I thought Pinto asked for a trade and said he wasn't going to re-sign, but that might just be Robertson in Toronto that I for some reason also include Pinto in. Lol. Either way, it is weird that they needed to add. Joseph is a perfectly serviceable player at 2.9mil per. If we didn't sign Heinen this trade would have been great for us. More picks to give away later. I wonder how long they been working on a trade for him. I am guessing interest dried up after all of July 1st's action. We could have been interested if we didn't already sign Heinen for instance.

Wasn't Pinto wanting a trade, and inviting an offer sheet? Maybe they're trading his rights for a player or 2 under contract.

3rd round pick is pretty hefty for a player that played to his cap hit cost...

This feels similar to Walman.

 

A team paying to dump him when there's likely a team that would pay an asset for him, or at the very least take him for free.

Feels like a Benning situation, near the bottom of the league and need to clear cap space. 

 

Canucks need to keep an eye on Brady...
