Staal retires - Re-sign the big boys

Created by: mhan63
Team: 2020-21 New York Rangers
Initial Creation Date: Jan. 14, 2020
Published: Jan. 14, 2020
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
This is obviously really tight. The goal of re-signing Kreider, Strome, Fast, and ADA is going to be tough.

Some other options for cap relief would be to trade Skjei or Buch. Skjei can be replaced by Rykov, Robertson, Miller, etc. Hajek could end up being replaced by them as well. As it stands, I think Lindgren should stay. I like his physicality and chemistry with Fox.

Buch has been given many opportunities to succeed, but he just can't seem to elevate his level of play to that of a top 6 guy on a consistent basis. I think Kakko, Kravtsov, Puljujarvi, or Lemieux could perform just as well given minutes with Kreider and Zibanejad.

Pssst that Strome contract is borderline disaster and NYR should sell high on him asap. Fast getting 4 years is silly, dont give term to replacable depth. Yea he is a fan favorite but is also a dime a dozen. Playing him in the top 6 should be considered a crime. Hajek needs to be moved out not up.

Looks like if Staal retires, youd be stuck with a 1.5mil cap hit next year

It looks to me like Strome has finally found his game. IDK that you'd give him 4 years. I'd take him to arbitration and give him what comes from that on a 2/3 year deal and see if he earns himself another raise when you get Hank and the bad contracts off the books. I'm sure bread man will make anyone good, but I don't see a reason to break up a good thing and reshuffle the line. We don't have many center prospects and the ones we have aren't too promising.

I don't think we need Kreider enough to justify paying him what he's projected to be going for. Maybe we trade him to CAR For Nino with a Kreider extension in hand? Idk. Just spit balling.
