Description

Not very realistic that DA gets this aggressive, but this would be a very tough team to play against with solid production on all units. Perunovich and Hanifin (maybe Parayko?) could hold down the PP units.

Free Agent Signings

Frederic, Trent	3	$2,000,000

Trades

STL

2023 2nd round pick (ANA)

Additional Details:

ANA spots someone they like at #29 and take on Scandella to get it done. At 50% retained, a player like him that can be tough and play PK will be highly sought after at the TDL, so that's just free value.

If Frederic only signs for 2m, then Boston probably re-signs him.

I'd sign him for as much as $3M personally. $2M is on the low end.

Heh, sorry, I saw the trade was for a TOR pick and thought this was a TOR build where the trade would be in-division and they will not have much cap flexibility. Anyway, if he would require 3x3m then the B's would be in a tougher spot, and they might accept.

Nah gotta be more than 4 spots to take on over $3M in basically dead cap. Even if healthy he becomes a scratch. Can use other assets to move up or lesser assets to acquire a usable cap casualty.
