Sorry, but too much for Crawford. Most overrated goalie in the NHL ... he was in the world cup instead of Dubnyk ... see what i mean?

Both Hino and Forsling are exempt. It could be Pokka, Jurco, or Moose though...

While I like your Darling and Panik re-signings, I disagree with the Oduya term and the Jurco deal. If JO needs to be re-signed, I would hope it would be year-to-year now that he is 35. Also, a three year commitment for a guy who has yet to register a point this season yet only a one year deal for Kero who has been a real good fit doesn't seem quite right.

Darling has been fantastic, especially this season! To extend him for $3M/3 years would be awesome! However, the only way he is with the Blackhawks next year with any significant (and earned raise) would be if Crawford is gone. Not sure what Crow's market might be this off season unless he happened to waive his NMC and Vegas drafted him. (I also doubt his return would be a 1st and a 2nd in the same draft.).

Although you have an extra player plus over $2M in space, bonus overages will also count against next year's cap. It remains to be known how much that will be but it very well could be north of $3M. Again, in this scenario, it perhaps is plausible w/o Kempny.

Otherwise, good job.

Not sure if I could agree with the bold statement, with him being a two time starting SC goalie. I would say his salary cap is a bit of a hindrance for the Hawks, tho.
