Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

I believe there will be high demand for Wayne Simmonds services if he's made available. Size, good speed, solid defensively, net front presence, and a cost effective contract....I think it'll come down to the three teams listed.
Edmonton - seems like an overpay, but Simmonds would probably play with McDavid - putting Draisatl back on line 2 and giving EDM 2 solid lines. Edmonton dumps Spoonner in deal. Flyers could add Raffl in the deal to help EDM improve their depth and overall defense.
Nashville - Lavy is familiar with Simmonds style of play and wants that net front presence, plus he can help out on the PK where Nashville struggles with SH goals.
Colorado - they don't seem to have a problem scoring, but they need forwards who can be defensively responsible as well as improve their PP.

I like the NSH and EDM deals. Not a huge Nieto guy.

I put Nieto in the COL deal just as a salary dump type move. If COL bring Simmonds in they may have to shed salary to re-sign him.
