Quoting: bhavikp27
Cehlarik is done in Boston; he signed in Europe.
Don't need Sherman. Not enough $$ for Grzelcyk if it's a three year deal. Bjork doesn't fit on the 4th line. Krejci doesn't play on the PK.
You're over the cap while overpaying Dillon. Just bury Ritchie in the minors.
Cehlarik is in Providence, as is Sherman. I'm just filling out roster spots man, not building the team around them.
I'm $1.6m over the cap (as I said, the overage is spread over two years. The site just has it at $1.92m, but it would really be $964k)
Ritchie costs $423k in the minors. It's cheaper to buy him out (167 this year and 333 next year, or something)
And if I'm overpaying Dillon then good - pay him less and I'm over the cap by 500k.
We need 2 upgrades - wing for Krjeci (LW since we have Kase) and LD. Gryz with Mac on the top-pairing isn't going to cut it.
So there's Hall and Dillon. Sure, Dillon may not be a #1 but better him than Gryz with Mac. Big and can hit. SJ fans say his skating improved and he pairs well with a good skater and when he doesn't have to carry the pairing. Sounds like he'd fit well with Mac to me.
The point is it's pretty close, with both Gryz and DeBrusk. And two upgrades. Yes I'm over the cap with Gryz, but it's pretty close.
