Let's skip that and go straight to making the playoffs instead.

We should be trying to next season!

i get that.. the reason for my comment is that if he can't hold up or be good enough for the playoffs he isn't my starter, ever..

Little tidbit from the previous blog about the cap:

https://www.tsn.ca/nhl-sa...on-gary-bettman-1.1733078

Cap goes up $1 million next season, probably stays flat for the 2023-2024 season and then the players would have cleared off the escrow owed to the owners and then look for another increase in the cap for the 2024-2025 season.

At that time it could be a smaller increase of $1 million like this coming season, or it could jump much higher as it was increasing $2 million the season before the pandemic and $4.5 million the season prior to that.

So yes the cap will rise barring another pandemic.
- Stripes77

I don't believe the bold is accurate, as it has been said multiple times that the cap is planned to rise $1M per season until the escrow is cleared, at which point a greater increase than $1M annually would be possible.

It's what CapFriendly shows.

Your math doesn't add up chief.

Yeah, sorry. Sort of a dislexia typo. 26 goals, not 22. It was the three 6s in a row.

I didn't have Grans on there at first. But was talking with a few Kings fans and read up a little on him. We thought it was a fair trade.

The ryan Johnson still making his decision is killing you 36?

He has very little value , if traded.

Why would a team trade for him. When presumably he would sign with them for free.

Makes 0 sense

Oh I don't know, it's not like teams don't trade for players rights knowing they aren't signing with the team that drafted them.

That's it and probably be in there starting top 6 D before Grans ever hits the ice full time for them with there RD Depth.

That was one team that did that and it was the buffalo Sabres.

I think most you get for Johnson is a 3/4 rd pick.
