Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Helping Buffalo...If possible
I am assuming most teams don't want to spend to the Cap due to Covid, hence the $8M in cap space left. This team isn't built for playoffs, more so to let the kids play aka Mittelstadt, Cozens and Patrick being their top 3 C

LA has been adamant that Byfield is off the table. Thats why they are out of Eichel talks, per insiders.

Can't NJ just sign some Vets for 1 year? They could use 2 or 3 anyway

I did an ideal offseason ACGM where I signed 4 free agents (Foote, Coleman, Martinez, and Andersen) and we were barely over the cap floor

Wow, that's unbelievable ... I actually remember that AGM. Please make Fitz do that one.

Where do you think Hughes contract lands? Similar to Nico?

It all depends on how he plays this year

I expect it to be 6.5x3. Then we lock him up 10x8

Hope he doesn't pull a Niedermayer & heads off to play with one of his brothers. NJ is a great place to live, but with a contract like that, taxes matter.

Don't worry. Quinn's going to be headed to NJ to join his brothers.

Lol, that would be crazy. Those kids can really skate. It would be fast break hockey at the Rock. Poor Blackwood would have a nervous breakdown.

I know Fitzgerald will be under enormous pressure to pick Luke, but Hughes probably isn't the fourth best prospect. I wouldn't be surprised to hear another name ... just not sure Fitz can pass on the PR opportunity & strategically, it helps resign Jack LT one day. It seems fait accompli.

It would be very strategic to take Luke to make Jack happy.

Imagine Luke, Quinn, and Ty as our 3 best defensemenflushed cheeks

Yes, but I may need a few drinks at game time to stay calm. That would be some serious pace to keep up with.
