2 things;
- Emelin Sucks
- Bonino's Contract Isn't that bad

I actually like Emelin in his role in NSH. On the 3rd pair, he's played well and adds physicality that I think we need. I think Bonino will show his worth (maybe not 4 mil worth but still) later in the year. The reason they're both included in this is to clear space, so they can be moved around between the trades in my opinion.

First impression: WOW is that a lot of even strength scoring!

Second look: you traded for Alex Galchenyuk, a young thirty goal scorer. He immediately becomes the best goal scorer on your team. And you didn't find room for him in your top six or on special teams. Lucky you underpaid for him!

Not enough for Galchenyuk. Do you want Patches?

Habs pass. Big overpay for Vanek, you could get him for the 2nd alone.

If I could get Patches for the same price then I'd do that in a heartbeat, or just add another 1st or whatever because this is just selling everything for now at this point.

With all due respect, I don't think he would be the best goal scorer on our team. I'd take Forsberg ahead of him. At center, where he wants to be and NSH would need him, I'd put him third behind RyJo and Turris since I think they're better 2-way options. The beauty with these lines is that there's really no true 1st, 2nd, 3rd line. Notice that Forsberg (our best offensive player) is on the third line too. It's a great, balanced lineup that one could do so many different things with but would never actually happen. I just like Galch better than Patches but something tells me Patch's asking price will be higher than Galch's for some stupid reason. I'd take either if they could be had at that price, or heck, in this crazy scenario, I'd add another first or Sissons or anything.

Yeah, you may be right. Bonino was just added to clear cap space, so I'd still keep him there too. Aberg would be added if there's some sort of bidding war with another team in this fantasy land.
