Could trade high on Gourde.

Gord Gourde. That would have been mean.

Bold will go to the Sends..

I will be mad if they landed Kucherov, that would be a steal from TB.

Two long term contracts must go. Johnson, Point and Callahan as well for the short term.

Are the Sens dumb enough to trade for players that are free to go after one year?

Pride and obsession could play a part in this. Yzerman is no dummy though.

Seems like he wants to do something big to show the Leafs after JT

But when you have to give up so much talent that are already on your team+prospects.....how much better do you really get?

One thing I've noticed. Lightning are an ugly team.

Leafs are much prettier.

is this a trick question?

They weren't good enough though...so something has to change. What if Gourde was a one year wonder?

Stone might be getting a one year deal because of arbitration.....If so, he is gone after this year

Cheap is all they want.

How much?

I don't like his face...but I might get over it.

I wouldn't care too much about Gourde, he would have to go anyways without Karlsonn. no money.

If you are forced to give up Point, Johnson, Gourde plus prospects....is it worth it? For a guy that will be a FA in one year...and seems pretty interested in your team.

Kucherov isn't going anywhere. That deal would be dead in the water.

If EK says Tampa and only Tampa...could get ugly for the Sens. I think Tampa has the parts to do it if someone else jumps in. Regardless, sure is fun to watch.

uhhhhhhh

With Karlsonn they will have about 12 million in cap space next season

needing to re sign

Kucherov(will take up almost all of it)
Gourde
Point
Stralman
Erne

plus will have to fill up a few more roster spots

THEN a year later will need to resign Sergachev+Vaselevsky

Please, enlighten me how they can do this
- Santo_44

Kucherov will become Tampa's highest paid player.
Gourde - traded or bridged.
Point - signed long term.
Stralman - signed on a discount deal or traded.
Erne - his contract will be cheap.

Sergachev might be gone as part of the deal if Karlsson lands in Tampa. If not, bridge him.

Vasi - will make serious bank.

How does this all work with the current roster?

1) Thanks to Vegas, we can expect another healthy bump up for the cap.

2) Several contracts will be off the books before Kuch and Vasi have to resign.

3) Callahan will be bought out.

4) Killorn or Johnson gets traded.

5) Yzerman is a Jedi.

Landing Karlsson or Tavares is one of those moves you have to pull the trigger on if given an opportunity. Trade now - make it work later.

Got nothing on Buffalo. Eichel and Mittelstadt are very ugly dudes.

Eichel is just ugly as sin but Mittelstadt looks like his face is too small for his, well, face.

Ya well u dont know fuk'n shtt..run da fuk off..

Nice reply. I am shocked it didn't take you longer to come up with it.

Kucherov isn't leaving for Karlsson.

You don't know jack poop about how Yzerman operates if you think he is giving up Kucherov for anything short of Fort Knox.

Oh yeah...Eichel - a face you want to punch.

But look at the Lightning overall - yeesh - whole crop of ugly. Steve Y just making sure he's the best looking dude in the organization. Thank goodness they can play hockey.
