Description

If Pettersson and Lindholm mesh well and go deep look to convince them to leave a little money on the table to make a strong contender for their best years.

Setup all your role players to 2-3 year contracts to allow prospects and other opportunities to be seized.

Not sure if Tanev is the right answer for our #2 RHD but need to find a value player here to hold the position until Willander or another player fills the role.

This gets the majority of our roster through the hardest parts of the OEL Buyout and allows new players to overtake some of the Role players as they develop.

probably id rather pass on blueger and play suter #C instead. free up some space to sign a decent 3rd pairing LHD.

play Aman at 4C

Could see CHI taking mediocre veteran forwards but I think they might be ready to just let the kids play at D.

VAN shouldn't have too much problem moving Poolman though, he's not terrible and his contract is not outrageous.

Too much for Blueger. Career fourth liner blowing up. Love to see it. Scared to pay $3.5M for it.

Tanev, Joshua and Hronek will definitely be more even if Pettersson and Lindstrom take a hair cut those other players will get a lot more on the open market.

Have to identify the core and lock them up. If they can re-up Petey, Hronek and Lindholm, plus add Tanev on a decent deal then I'd be very happy. They'll likely have to find cheaper replacements for Blueger, Joshua, DeSmith and Lafferty to free up the cap space for the core signings though.
