Description

This assumes the reported $1m salary cap increase. Halak can be any veteran goalie who would be ok with coming in knowing they’ll be splitting starts with Kahkonen and the team will be riding the hot goalie.
Benn can be any depth defenseman.
Overall this team should be very similar to the team they have this year, so they should still be able to compete.

Maybe. He's still definitely finding his footing as a NHL goalie so I could see them signing him to a bridge contract and continue to have him share starts with another goalie. How much do you think he'll get and for how long?

I'd call the Avs the western Leafs, but the Avs at least make the 2nd round before choking.
