Rads would be worth more, a low round pick and a bottom pair d-man when he gets on our team isn’t enough. Not to sure on his value, but he’s worth more.

Fair, just wasn't sure. Does save you guys over 4 million for heiskanen

It's an interesting trade. Allen is most likely gone to Seattle as it is and that's a nice return.

Yeah I know, but we don’t need money for him. I did a sketch AC-GM for the next year and then the year after that, if they do it right they can do a mini re-tool and still stay in contention.

ANA has said what they expect for Rackell a 1st and a good prospect, a 2nd and Risto isn’t that. Easy no from them. BUF should be saying no to even talking about Radulov they need young cheap talent not a guy on the back side of his career that DAL isn’t trading for that package.

If we can convince Seattle to take Chiarot instead of Evans for a reasonable amount then the habs take that.

Well, they likely won't get that and the sabres pick might be the 1st pick of the 2nd round

Also 9 of the 12 forwards were drafted or aged to be drafted in 2014 and after. It's a young group. Eichels wings are rentals, leaving room for whoever we draft in the top 3 and Quinn to slot in next year

Rackell at his cap number will get a #1 and prospect from someone but valid point about BUF 2nd being the 1st one of the round.

I’ve said BUF has a good base to build around, I forgot about Quinn and I really like JJP the last thing they need to do is block their paths with guys like Rackell and Radulov, I mean don’t they have enough over priced wingers?

I’m not sure we really need to add that much to the lineup. Jack comes back, Reinhart probably moves back to his wing. Reinhart‘s done OK work as a center, but can’t win a face off to save his life. What I would try to add is some physicality to the 4th line, and if necessary bribe Seattle to take Miller. That sounds a lot better than paying half his salary just to get rid of him. Putting Girgensons back on the fourth line might be enough. Unfortunately Okposo isn’t just going away, they either have to buy him out or bury him. I don’t think he retires even if he should.

The guys I signed will be on the last year of their deals and I'm 7.5 million under the cap
