Description

Larkin signs for the same amount as his buddy Zach.

To make this work:

-Gavi gets shipped out at the 2023 TDL for picks or a good prospect on their ELC.

-Gus does not get resigned

-Gudbranson gets bought out

-Chinny extension is high due to him having a break out 2022-2023 season

Defense is still super weak unless the young prospects step up a ton...

Probs not an ideal solution but this is the cheapest way (not giving up assets to shed cap space) that I could come up with.

Don't think this team contends for the cup as is.

I'm completely shocked Gudbrandon's buyout price is... reasonable? How does that even happen. I mean nothing on this armchair GM will happen in real life, but I thought his buyout price was really interesting. Less than half his AAV the entire way
