Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Letting Tatar's contract expire (can be replaced), but retaining Danault and the oldies.
Gustafsson, I don't see him as essential to our success, but more as a good piece at the price I offered him here. He has downsides that don't show up on the score sheet.

Not sure if any of these contracts are reasonable. Let me know what you think.

For Seattle expansion, using the tool, I exposed Weber (unattractive contract, unlikely to lose) plus Kulak and Allen. Given the three options, Allen is probably the best pick. However, I'm not sure if we're allowed to resign our players AFTER the expansion draft to indirectly protect the expiring UFA players without using a slot--haven't followed up on the rules. Let me know.

All of the cap space is basically just to resign Suzuki next year. But we also have enough cap space for a big trade if anyone has something in mind. Let's let the playoffs end before speculating.

Pretty solid overall
Gustafsson isn’t worth more than 1M
Staal —-> garbage
I would let Armia go
Not sure Raanta takes that to be a backup
We need Drouin in with Suzuki and Caufield, Toffoli is way too slow to play with Caufield/Suzuki plus he doesn’t have their hockey IQ. I would do a Toffoli-Kotkaniemi-Anderson line
Forgot : Harris is going back to Northeastern, he isn’t signing this summer
