Isles got a lot of $ and no RFA of significance to sign - so they shouldn't have trouble resigning but out of all the UFAs, the only ones id be interested in are Lee or Nelson - i think either would be great top 6 and still have 4/5+ years of being effective left.

I asked this the other day but what do you think the value of taking on Clarksons contract would be? (5.2+X1yr)
Vegas is in big trouble cap wise and I believe they took it on a few years back for a 1st & 2nd??

Too steep for Vegas. I’d do Clarkson + Miller + pick for some random long shot prospect like Palmu or something.


That way Edler and his agent will poop their pants, and both the “improve the roster” and the “more draft picks” crowds will be happy.


Too bad Callahan has a NTC, otherwise Tampa would be fun to trade with after they get bounced in round 1.

I think Clarkson for their 1st and send them Goldy - we do them a massive favour and they get the king of the backcheck

Yeah fortunately Tampa have lots of cap issues but unfortunately its hard to take advantage of bcus most of the guys have NTC/NMC
Same with Pitts - but in their case its a mix of NTCs and then a bunch of guys teams would have absolutely NO interests in

Ferland and Karlsson.

Just kidding, I really want JB to do nothing but trade away a couple players. Collect picks. They have way too much depth now.

I just think the first rounder will be next to impossible to squeeze out of them for just a short cap dump but who knows

Guarantee you people will be saying “so much depth” or “too many players and not enough spots” again next training camp. Happens every year before reality hits

Only one or 2 more players until the re-build is complete.

Well as of now they have 0$ for next year and have to sign Karlsson and maybe RFAs Subban, Nosek, Gusev and whatever other UFAs they need to fill holes.

Stone, Tuch, Schmidt and Patches just signed
Reilly, March, Stastny, all got NTC-M
Miller, Eakin could be pried away - but they don't have much leverage. They're ripe to be taken advantage of.

This is funny. I've been seeing that commercial about fussy eating kids a lot lately and it reminds me of these guys.

"It's too crunchy", "it's not crunchy enough", "It touched the eggs", "The spaghetti is too long" etc...
