Looking past the TDL

Team: 2024-25 Anaheim Ducks

Initial Creation Date: Feb. 1, 2024

Published: Feb. 5, 2024

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Can hang onto RyJo until TDL or offer to retain him down to $2 million and meet him to anyone who will toss us a 2nd round pick for him.

Throw money at Roy, even if we take Leshunov in the first round, we should give him a couple years to marinate and develop. It's time for Helleson to make the jump with Warren and Luneau hitting the AHL and needing top 4 time there. He's on second pair mainly because Fowler will be his partner (put a vet with a rookie) I think Vaake has shown he's worth keeping on, especially for when needed to cycle in with Gudas as a shutdown pair.

I thematically like putting Kakko with Zegras more to help with that lines shutdown ability, and a better playmaker to help try and ignite his scoring ability, but Laine can also benefit from being alongside Zegras. That said, the intent is to roll 3 scoring lines, and McTavish has become a sneaky good playmaker in his own right.
