Description

-Sean Coutourier and Ryan Ellis should be back to start the season. Hopefully they aren't too affected by their injuries last season. Ellis had 4 points in the 5 games he played last season and should be a solid 2nd or 3rd pairing guy.

-Hayes hasn't been scoring a lot of points but his points per game ratio is very good, so if he can play a full season for CGY, he should put up some solid numbers for them.

-The team might need to look at trading Risto and possibly Ellis at the deadline, especially if they are playing well during the first half of the season. Sanheim is going to get a raise after this season and Philly has too much cap locked up in their D. After this season, they'll have $12.1M roughly in cap space.

-This team has playoff potential under Torts, which should help Hart and the core overall.

Trades

PHI

Kylington, Oliver [RFA Rights]
Monahan, Sean

Additional Details:

I'm sure CGY wants Monahan out of CGY as he's been lackluster at his cap hit for the last few seasons. He's only 27 and could be re-signed for cheaper after this upcoming season. Kylington for some younger defenseman coming in.

CGY

Hayes, Kevin
2023 3rd round pick (NYR)

Additional Details:

M-NTC is a 12 team no trade list. CGY getting Hayes would bolster their depth down the middle and would be a solid 2C for them.

PHI

2023 2nd round pick (BUF)

BUF

van Riemsdyk, James
2023 5th round pick (PHI)

Additional Details:

BUF has the cap space and could be looking to add for a semi-competitive team. No risk as JVR has one year left on his contract and could be traded at the deadline to a competitive team looking for a rental.

Buffalo has no reason to pay for JVR. If teams weren't willing to take his contract for less than a 1st 2 weeks ago, it seems doubtful they would suddenly pay a 2nd for him.

The situation is a little different now. Philly was trying to make space for Johnny, so teams were probably trying to low ball Philly for JVR. Also, many teams are probably waiting on Kadri to move to shore up their teams and see who is remaining. Moving JVR doesn't have to happen immediately either. I'm sure BUF is trying to be more competitive, especially since getting Tuch and getting higher in the points total. Their culture and team is changing for the better and might be buyers soon.

A first for jvr or you guys can keep him. It's 7 million in cap space. More teams should be looking at trading a first for whoever they sign, rather than using it to trade away a player.
