Description

1. Pick a team cap dump

2. Based mainly on the fact that word is Philly wants to win now for Giroux and Couturier. Maybe/probably undervalued but I suck at that. Let me know what would make it work.

3. RD for a RD. Both guys get fresh starts. I very nearly put Brown for Eakin/Haula but decided it would be overkill.

Not sure it make Vegas better, but it certainly frees up cap room, allows them to sign both Wild Bill and Gusev along with having a bit of flexibility for the future.

It seems to me that Nolan is worth that package, why are they adding a first?

Merely because those are the two things I saw that Philly would be willing to part with. I've seen other scenarios where people though R.Smith was worth more than a second so that's why I went that route. Figured adding in the 2nd and Reavo would help balance it out.

Maybe willing to part with Nolan for trouba. Not two players that aren’t as good as him.
