Description

Okay. There is a few things here I am questioning. I feel like this would be a successful off-season for us. We shed some bad contracts and add a few very good players while boosting depth with signings like Acciari, Donskoi, Stolarz, and Kuhnhackl. I see Ethan Prow making his way into the lineup part way through the year as he had an amazing season in WBS this past season. Could definitely help the offensive style on the defense. Kessel trade probably doesnt happen in the end add our first this year if that makes it any better in the end. Draft is coming up and I am excited.

Leave comments on this if you think its good or not.

Trades

PIT

Additional Details:

Ottawa needs to hit the floor and dont have many players that can help with that. Plus he can be a decent mentor to the younger dmen.

Hörnqvist, Patric
2019 4th round pick (BUF)

Additional Details:

GMJR wants Zucker obviously. I think this may be a fair trade. Give or take we may need to give up this/next years first round pick.

I've seen so many Donskoi signings and I'm kind of perplexed, I'm sure he's a good player but he's never cracked 40 pts or 15 goals. I just don't think it justifies the cap hit when you can have Simon for under 1 million. Thoughts? Is Donskoi really good defensively?

I'm not really a fan of any of this. Donskoi signing is too much. Acciari will most likely get more money just because he was on a cup final team.

As for the trades...Johnson just won't be traded like like. It will be a contract coming back. Would rather keep Simon as a bottom 6 instead of having a 6th rounder. He is a really good bottom 6 winger. Sullivan just needs to keep him out of the top 6. Minnesota trade just doesn't seem to be a fit. I can't see Florida agreeing to that trade. Also, the pens taking back that Matheson contract would be counter productive to moving out Johnson. Pens should keep gudbranson. So far he has played very well for them. Until he shows other wise he is valuable to them.
