Description

Lindy sets his stall out early in the summer to GMKA

Philly get two previous first round prospects both NHL ready and can be signed onto reasonable contracts, whilst getting rid of a valuable player in Konecny his 1yr left (UFA) and his age dosen't play into the Flyers rebuild. 2nd pick and Russian 2nd rounder Poltapov to assist in Michakov coming over earlier.

UFA Signings address lines needs for a mutant line (Dakota & Trenin) that hits, goes to the net, fights and can contribute. This would be a line Lindy can deploy to add some jam into this skilled Sabres line-up. Whilst the addition of Roy on the back end solidifies a strong D group and gives Power a stable partner.
Talbot brought in on an overpay to help let UPL build on last year whilst Jedi Levi develops with a full year in ROC.

Prospects signed to fill out Rochester and give a run at the Calder cup.

Tk starts with a 1st and one of Kulich/Savoie. All the other crap you threw in is useless to us. Jokiharju is already going to be 25 he’s barely older than TK so if he doesn’t fit our rebuild neither does Jokiharju. Krebs isn’t going to be anything more than a 3rd liner and we have plenty of them. And that Russian prospect looks terrible

As much as I like what you’re thinking you are over the cap, and Matt Roy is making about $2 million less than I expect him to get. Add to it that I expect Luukkonen will get at about double what you’re paying him here.

What is the solution? For starters, Talbot won’t cost that much. Maybe you can talk Matt Roy into taking $5.5 million instead of six, but he’ll never sign for what you’re thinking. And if they’re going to bring in Konecny, they probably make another trade to drop another contract.

Levi is in the NHL next year. There's nothing he can get out of the A. Delete his October and November, he was already one of the better backups in the league. He'll get like 30+ games next year. 0% chance UPL signs that and you burn all of his good faith offering him that. He has Arb too. Why would you play Benson, a winger, at center over Kulich, a center lol
