Description

This, to me, looks like a solid playoff team. Probably completely unrealistic, since for example Dubas isn't a reactionary 15 year old and won't trade Nylander. I'd explore Laine ++ for Eichel, cause Eichel is really good while Laine isn't. Spurgeon is obviously a prize in his own right, but any solid replacement for Jones you can get for a few spare forwards is welcome.

Free Agent Signings

Texier, Alexandre	3	$2,250,000
Stenlund, Kevin	2	$1,550,000
Peeke, Andrew	2	$1,350,000

UFA		YEARS	CAP HIT

Trades

CBJ

Eichel, Jack

BUF

Laine, Patrik [RFA Rights]
2021 1st round pick (TBL)
2021 1st round pick (TOR)

Additional Details:

I guess either this, lose your 5th best forward or Dumba, or just trade for Dumba instead of they refuse to give up Spurgeon

Not nearly enough for Eichel. Folks’ analysis of Jones is really all over the board so I could see that trade but depends on Dubas’ opinion of Jones. And I don’t think that’s enough for Spurgeon, but things are crazy with expansion so who knows.

Don't see us moving Spurgeon, we'll likely either trade Dumba or lose him in expansion.

I’d imagine all 3 of these teams decline.
