Are the Sens still operating on the cheap?

A player like Kerfoot might be tempting, cap is 3.5 but after the Bonus, salary is 750k
if im reading cf correctly

DET needs a C better than Suter.

Could be a fit, can always deal him at the deadline if they do not want to re sign him.

Probably hits 55-60 points with PP time

Rassmusen?

If Kadri is too expensive
Avs may want Kerfoot back

Girard for Kerfoot and Holl👍

Colorado will probably re-sign Kadri IMO- they have several older UFA's that will be gone and about $25M in cap space. A player that might be worth looking at is Valeri Nichushkin. LW that is 6'4" and has some skill.

Its possible depending how much money he wants. They have a lot of players to sign , and Mackinnon is up next year too.

They have Burakovsky, Kadri, Nichushkin, Keumper, Sturm, Murray, Manson, Lehkonen (RFA) all up this year.


Its going to be tight for them.

Based on his previous statements, I think he will take around 10M, which is still a 4M increase.

Hard to imagine after being so underpaid for years.

As much as us fans want these guys to take discounts we should not expect for Mack to leave millions on the table when he has already been playing 5-6M above his value for years.

Bert is the guy I see leafs getting if they add an impact top 6. Either him or a Parchment type that costs less.

Mackinnon said he would take less when it was his turn a while ago. Id expect him to take around 10M.

Are you taking into account of the cap rising?

Mcdavid signed his contract when the cap was 79.5M. Thats a 13M contract today and the cap is projected to go up 10M once escrow debt are paid off.

Mack taking less is 12M.

The cap hasnt raised in a couple of years and is going up 1M. Barkov just signed for a 10M, Makar is making 9M and could have asked for more. I dont think hell be asking for much over 10M.

Agreed.
The cap wont be going up by much for many years.
