4petesake Posted October 23, 2023 Posted October 23, 2023 Done. Cap hit is a wash, Joshua & Mantha are both UFA so even if they both walk we have cleared $5M for the next two years. Mantha is a big body who fights a little so that helps. 1 2 Quote

Mantha won't move the needle for us. Quote

I think Mantha would thrive and be a beast here....and as @4petesake said, in the worst case scenario (if UFA walks) we will have a nice chunk of cap space over the next couple years. 1 1 Quote
Bobby James Posted October 23, 2023 Posted October 23, 2023 I'd do it. Feels a little random to even need to have Joshua in the deal. Mantha for Garland seems fair considering how poorly Mantha has worked out there. They likely get the better player and Canucks free some space up the next 2 years. Quote

Joshua is there for cap balancing, and for losing any toughness that WSH may feel it loses with Mantha's size being gone. 1 Quote

I wonder if they'd be willing to take Julsen or Studnicka. It would be nice to have Joshua and Mantha in the bottom 6 for size. But not a deal breaker regardless, I'd still do the trade as proposed. 1 Quote
DownUndaCanuck Posted October 26, 2023 Posted October 26, 2023 I think Mantha's been real bad lately, healthy scratch and all. Joshua's the best player of the trade. I'd give up Beau or Garly straight up, no more. Quote
Snoop Hogg Posted October 27, 2023 Posted October 27, 2023 I don’t see why Washington would do this. Quote
