TO WASHINGTON
Francouz
Stetcher
Ponomaryov (p)
DAL 7 2024
TO DALLAS
Campbell (800k retained)
Poolman
Abols
NJD 3 2024
So let me break this one down.
Francouz/Stecher/Ponomaryov for Campbell, DAL 7 for Poolman and I am paying the 3rd to take Abols to the woodshed.
Campbell has been having issue with the Caps so far and although making a downgrade ratings wise, Francouz has that playoff experience and we are going with a 1a/1b goalie tandem with Francouz/Rask instead of a starter/backup system.
The biggest win for me here is the money I am saving by moving out Poolman and Abols. Stetcher is a capable and cheaper option for my bottom pairing D and as a Canes fan, Ponomaryov is a promising prospect that I am happy to add to my severely lacking prospect cupboard. The 3rd is to help Jim deal with the prospect of having to buy out Poolman and Abols.
So basically the win out of this for me is not necessarily the players coming back but the money I am saving in dumping Poolman/Abols and Campbell. Thanks for the talks Jim.
