Salary Cap Mode: Basic

I'm still very unsure how I feel about letting Jarry go this off-season but the fact of the matter is that his inconsistencies have cost the pens far too many games.

The biggest problem is that the goalie market next year is pretty weak though there are some viable options depending on which route the pens decide to go with.

One out of the box options is trying to get one or the goalies from the bruins as it may be difficult for them to have the same tandem for next year.

The goalie market is always difficult to pin point as not many goalies go for a first, but the bruins may be interested in recouping some higher picks while trying to round out their roster for next year.

I don't know if 4.25 is too high or too low for bunting but I like his game and it would definitely give the pens some much needed flexibility in their top 9.

Both Archie and Kulikov are just some reassurance pieces which can be brought in on the cheap and while I'd like to make up a creative way to get rid of Carter it is most likely he will be back next year to play out his contract.
