To Krak: Brayden Point
To Hawks: Travis Konecny 2022 1st UFA (SEA) #9 2022 3rd UFA (LAK) #something
I had a bit of buyers remorse when I acquired Point, if I'm being honest. He's cool but he has a high cap hit and I'm short on cap space.
I acquire Konecny, who I really like as a player. He plays for a sucky team but that's not really his fault. He is also cheaper by about 4M. I plan to use that 4M when I draft someone with the #9 pick. Hopefully it'll be a starting goalie but if not, there are a couple of decent forwards and defensemen available. I'm trying to compete this year and I think two 5M players will probably get more points than a 9M Point.
Ford feels differently I think. I don't want to speak for him but he obviously wanted Point.
Always great dealings with Ford. He's a great guy. You should all trade with him more.
Thanks Ford.

Yup. I like Point better than the $5m guys I was looking at with that 9th OA pick. I’d rather be in cap hell with Point than with an overpaid older guy.
Thanks Hawk…for both the trade and the endorsement.

I forgot to add that the Flames now need to flip Huberdeau to Tampa for Point for piss and giggles. Bring the Calgary boy home and set off a holocaust in Florida.
