Description

Quick Notes: Don't forget that lines are always interchangable, this is just what they are for opening night. I've explained almost everything about the roster below. READ THIS BEFORE YOU COMMENT.

Trade Explanations
-
OTT - Receiving good picks in exchange for a solid player with potential. Made the trade in anticipation for the Laine trade.
-
Expansion Draft takes place. SEA selects Oleksiak and re-signs him because Khudobin is old.
-
CBJ - Adding offense to the team. Laine most likely agrees to a 1 year deal worth less than last year, considering he had a down year. A Werenski trade isn't unheard of either, he's been in the rumor mill lately too.
-
TOR - Oettinger becomes the starter this year. Bishop is a bit of a risk since he's been out for so long, so he goes for only a later year 3rd.

Line Explanations
-
1st - Pretty solid line, only gets slightly more minutes than the second line.
-
2nd - A line that has been on fire this year. Should be good next year too.
-
3rd - Laine is only here for chemistry reasons. He could replace Benn this year, with Benn getting older. Dickinson and Faksa are interchangable, and so are Rodrigues and Kiviranta.
-
4th - Only mainstay here is Cogliano. Otherwise the bottom 6 C and RW positions are interchangable.
-
PP1 - Laine is the main goal scorer here. Klingberg will quarterback and Pavelski will drive the net.
-
PP2 - Using the remaining offensive players here, and spreading out scoring. Werenski is the quarterback and Seguin is down low.
-
PK1 - Only reason Benn isn't on the PP is because he'll be getting more minutes here. Main defensive players are here.
-
PK2 - Dickinson has an underrated defensive game, so does Rodrigues. Klingberg is only here as a mentor to Harley.

Surprised nobody's mentioned the special teams, I'm usually horrible at making those.

I'd rather keep Gurianov

You guys sound like you're actually trying to negotiate a trade.

Stranges is probably our biggest wildcard.

We have quite a few sneaky good players in our system rn. Looking forward to seeing what Nill can do with all of our picks this year. Cmon 2017 2.0!!!!

I'll never judge anybody's special team tbh. It's a mindset someone has that has a lot of context around it.

Get real noway does that get you both Laine and Werenski combined, And what part of Laines qualifying offer being $7,500,000 don't people understand? And Werenski will probably get close to $9,500,000 long term Dallas doesn't have the cap for Heiskanen, Laine and Werenski long term.

Laine isn't going to sign for $6 million when his qualifying offer is $7.5 million and that will put you over the cap in this AGM.

- If you don't offer him the QO he is a UFA and walks for nothing.
- If Laine feels like he'd get less in arbitration (he probably doesn't), he signs the QO of $7.5 mil for one year.
- If it goes to arbitration, Laine would probably ask for $10 mil, team would ask for $7 mil and arbitrator will (be lazy and) pick the midpoint at $8.5 mil.
