There is not a single current roster player they shouldn't be unloading for futures. Hertl, Couture, Karlsson, Vlasic. All horrific long term contracts. Unreal how bad this situation is.

No one's giving futures for those D. Couture, maybe something small with retention. Hertl should've been dealt last deadline.

THose players you mentioned all have NMC in their contracts. Hertl just signed a 8 year deal last season. I believe Couture contract will be over when he's 40 years old, Vlasic & Karlson late 30's. It's going to take new GM Mike Grier quite a few years to clean up the mess

What makes you say that, he is stuck in a corner and it is going to take a long time to untangle the mess of long term contracts with NMC.
