Description

Missing out on all of the cheap UFAs because they didn't want to give up any prospects is going to haunt them. Better hope one of the winger prospects pans out.

That Devils trade is pretty good, but cap space is going to be tight next season if they're keeping Hall.

Yeah I picked them because they're close to the floor. CBJ/OTT would work as well. I feel like people are overrating how hard it is to get rid of Backes' contract, the real money is pretty low. Sweeney just loves his prospects.

Fans don't respect a players NTC enough. In Backes case....he had a 8 team "trade me to list". So if I'm Backes and want to stay in Boston you put have on trade list teams that definitely couldn't afford him.
Tampa, Leafs. Sharks, Jets, Vegas, Pittburgh.....that six. To think that Sweeney can magically trade Backes....even if the the sweetners are more than fair......is foolish.

To think he accept a trade to Ottawa. C'mon man, why do think players have NTCs?

Samething for Montreal. Berge said he build around the draft nand don't want to give prospect or 1st picks. But he need to know that isn't all of his prospect will play in the NHL. Why not taking a chance and trade one or two prospect for a guy already in the league. example they have in front
Kotkaniemi, Suzuki, Poehling, Ylonen, Ikonen, Caufield, Evans, Teasdale, Olofsson
and in D : Brook, Juulsen, Mete, Struble, Norlinder, Romanov Fleury.
They will not all be in the team one day. Why not taking a chance and make a trade. Same for Boston. They aren't in rebuild.

The other option is the AHL, Jersey is close and has an up and coming team, seems like a pretty easy choice
