Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Personally, putting Rust in bottom 6 spreads the offense out. Third line would be speed and skill.

Virtanen can score 20 goals and a big body can open up ice for Crosby and Guentzel

VAN would rather just take the draft pick or they might use Virtanen to get cap relief.

Lafferty is on league min. two way contract. Good player, just in Sullivans doghouse so VAN will like him.

I like both trades and this lineup. Would probably throw Jankowski in either of the deals as well just to clear more cap. But I would dig this lineup.
