Description
Erik Haula gets, once again, picked up as an expansion draft selection by SEA.

N.Schmidt resign with VGK, in june 2019. 6 years at 5M$ AAV.

J.Skinner is acquired at the 2019 trade deadline for a '19 first pick + '19 4th pick + prospect J.Leschyshyn. It's a sign & trade where Skinner accepts a 7 year contract worth 49M$.

VGK signs T.Myers on July 1st 2019 : 6 years with 6.3M$ AAV.

S.Theodore signs an 8 years deal worth 38.8M$(4.85M$ AAV) in august 2018.

W.Karlsson signs a 6 year deal worth 39M$ (6.5M$ AAV) in august 2018.

After a huge 2018-2019 season, where he racked up 28 goals 30 assists and 58 points, Alex Tuch signs a 6 years deal worth 30M$ (5M$ AAV) in july 2019.

D.Girardi is signed in the summer of 2020 as a 7th D-man and mentor for young D. 1x1M

N.Hague cracks the line-up for the first time in 2020-2021 and is paired with McNabb.

C.Glass had a calder worthy 2019-2020 season and established himself as a true young top 6 center in the league in 2020-2021 (makes NHL debut in 2019-2020 after a 9 game stint in 2018-2019).

N.Suzuki can't establish himself as a center, but becomes a great winger. 2020-2021 is his second NHL seasons (debut in 2019-2020).

They are gonna be great for a while. Only "?" is in net because they don't really have a true successor after Flower, unless M.Subban finally realize his true potential.

    Oh! I didn't knew that. I would probably put him at Tatar spot with Stastny and Suzuki. Though they might trade him sometime in the next 2 seasons...

    Good looking out. Thanks guys! For the rest : lines, contract, rookies, what do you guys think?

    In terms of lines, Smith probably sticks on the first line with Karlsson and Marchessault with Tuch on the second.
    Sadly I’m guessing Bellemare and Engelland retired, so they’re gonna be a big miss in terms of tutoring the youngsters.
    Since Haula is sticking around on the team(probably third line left wing), we could package Tatar in a trade for a Fleury replacement.
    Also, why Hague over Brannstrom? They’re close in terms of being NHL ready, but I think Brannstrom gets into the lineup first.
    That’s about it, overall it seems we have a bright future as long as we get Skinner.?

    Good thing is Tatar's and Stastny's contract end at the same time Glass and Suzuki's do. Solid team.
