Jarry is probably worth a second on his own, while Hornqvist's contract isn't looking great he isn't that big of an anchor to drop that value that much.

Buying out Johnson is not only a dumb move but not gonna happen. If they truly wanted to drop alittle salary they could save a million by just putting him in the minors, they would still have a larger cap hit but not as long lasting as a buyout. The other option is a trade but not as likely. He will probably still be with the team next season, he wasn't that terrible after switching sides to his natural side.

Im not familiar with Mikheyev at all so cant speak to that one.

I like the other moves though.

If Maatta and Martinez are equal value why trade only to have Martinez on his off side?

Did not improve the defense at all. An area that should be the focus this offseason.

apparently people think you can just backhand passes rink wide on here and everything will be just fine.
Hell they gave the same expectation on JJ all year.
You think they would learn by now.

Erm, Martinez shoots left. He plays on his off side as a RD, but here I've switched him to the other.
