As seen on Twitter: Why would anyone loan this clown money
“I think there's a decent assumption that if he doesn't get that stupid BMO $30M credit line in October (while announcing it on the team's social media for some reason), that they end up having trouble meeting payroll at some point this season.”
So here's the fun part. Remember that expansion draft coming up? If they keep taking AHL prospects in trades then the team is going to lose something valuable to Seattle.
Or maybe they are being smart! If you only have 4 useful players in your organization, you can protect all of them, and then trade all those AHL players for someone good!
Abramov
Batherson
Brown
Tkachuk
Balcers
Chlapik
White
Chabot
Jaros
That leaves one D spot with Lajoie and all the vets in the mix. Add in potentially 2 more NHL ready prospects for Dzingel and Stone and the returns get worse.
I assume some of those players will be gone by that time
