it's honestly a good try, but couple things. Binnington gets a 1-yr bridge deal. Bleackley never turned out wouldn't be surprised if they let him go. Soshnikov is the same. Stevens looks good. Butler is older, but I like him in St.Louis hometown boy. Don't see them re-signing Coreau he will be 28, and in the minors highly doubt they do that. Thorburn is just dead cap in the minors right now wouldn't re-sign him, and Hainsey isn't needed. Bortuzzo is way better than Hainsey on Offense, and Defense. If we want to upgrade it's probably bringing in another LHD in a trade for Edmundson, selling Allen. Bringing Kyrou, and Kostin up next year. Steen stays on 4th Line. Bouwmeester with Parayko, Schenn 2nd Line LW, Schwartz Top line. Thomas 2nd Line Center. Sundqvist 3rd Line RW Barbashev to Center on the 4th Line. Bozak at Center. Try to sell Bozak, and Steen as well.

Bozak is the perfect depth 3C for Calgary, but most Flames fans I've discussed this with think it would be a bad move. He is totally what they need at 3C.

$4.75M x 4 years is quite the overpayment for an overrated goalie in Binnington

"overrated
he isn't overrated. He plays really well, but you are basing your thesis on a small sample, and off of 2 bad games in playoffs. A rookie Goalie in Playoffs not a great mixture, so what you have stated is false.

Definitely not overrated. But still is a complete unknown long term. I can see a two year max deal at 3 mil per.

Lol he's been average all playoffs. He had a hot streak at the back half of the season and has struggled in playoffs.. hey Andrew Hammond did that too, and look where he is

1 Yr you want to keep him as an RFA otherwise he becomes a UFA.

He actually hasn't struggled outside of a couple of games. He's made really great saves. If you watch the game yesterday, most were not his fault and you could make the argument that none were.

Hey Marner had an average playoffs guess he is an overrated player too then.

Also if you actually watched games you would know that defenseman have been leaving him out there, but only guys who don't watch and just wanna trash talk when they don't know what they are talking are the people who would say that.

That's ideal, but playing in a non-contract year will be more telling than playing in another contract year.

Lol yup, always the defence's fault.. Leafs d left Freddy out to dry the whole series.. look what he did. Can't deny that it's Binnington's job to stop the puck. Which he's done averagely in the playoffs. He's an average goaltender.

It is the defense's fault to give up the puck...Watch Hertl's goal?

Guess what Tavares Matthews Marner were all average in playoffs, guess they are average forwards. That is basically what you are saying.

I don't see any changes at all, other than signing Hainsey, which ain't gonna happen. And there is no way in hell we re-up Jerabek. Same goes for Coreau and a few others.

Couture going 5 hole right along the ice on a clear shot on Binnington.. but yeah that's the defence's fault

1 Goal ooh so scary, Bishop I guess is average Blues scored 2 five holes on him in a game.

Hey Frederik Andersen is average he gave up bad goals against Boston, but I guess that doesn't count because the all mighty Maple Leafs are good at everything.

nah, just funny that you blame the defence for Binnington's poor play yet he lets in a goal like that. But you're right, he's a legit goalie. NHL starter's stand now chance on those kinda shots. Maybe if he defence wouldn't have screened him... oh wait. They didn't. LOL

LOL ... again having to bring everything back to the Leafs? hysterical how you think a pro argument point for you is trashing another goalie's play that doesn't even play on his team. Because yeah, Andersen totally affects how Binnington plays. Great argument kid LOL

You literally are basing him being "average on 1 goal total" you would be better watching CHL hockey if that's how you feel then. Couture hiding his shot, then shooting caught Binner off guard. He is playing the puck to help the defense guess you don't see that you only wanna see what you wanna see so you can bash Blues fans for the hell of it because you have nothing better to do. Yeah have a nice offseason bud. I'm sorry you are bored, but don't come after me.

SLAP!

Lol.. I was actually at 2 of the Winnipeg games. But I forgot, every St.Louis idea must go through you because you know EVERYTHING and what you say is always 100% right and totally un-bias. Since you always seem to like going back to talking about Toronto, please tell me again how Colton Parayko is worth Mitch Marner plus more. Maybe even suggest a trade. Or is Mitch Marner too overrated for your liking? Because I value your ideas and opinions so much. Maybe like you said before, (since I only play NHL 19 and don't know anything about hockey) I'll try your trade suggestion out on an EA sports game.

Please see someone about your apparent rage comments. You tend to blow off the handle quite quickly. Although it is pretty hysterical.
