Kings decline, we don't have a spot for Eakin.

Getting cocky with the Hall and Dahlin contracts


I like it

kings decline, jersey should accept but im not sure y buff would, car maybe accepts

If the team was a contender giving up that much to get rid of Okposo seems okay -and possibly needed- but with them a fringe playoff team it seems rough

Umm, Buffalo declines the NJ trad

waaaaay too much to get rid of Okposo

I like the premise. Hall wants to re-rign so we have to find a spot to offload Okposo. Dahlin balls out and earns the big bucks. Re-sign Staal to play in a reduced role as his game wears down. My thoughts:

I'd try to remove the two prospects from the Okposo trade. Both of those guys could legitimately be NHL ready next season, and having them on rookie contracts is almost as much of a cap boon as removing Okposo in the first place. Those rookie ELVs are huge. And I think money will be easier to move next off-season with Seattle coming in and adding some working cap space.

I'm not a Jake Gardiner fan, so personally I don't like that deal. But I can see how you might.

And I can't really judge Eakin until he plays a full season, so we'll wait on that.

Who do you see Seattle taking given this roster?
