I've been trying to do one with a similar approach. But I feel like Toews retiring is a bit too speculative at this point to be realistic. I was also thinking of a scenario where maybe Kane gets surgery over the summer and ends up taking next season off, allowing CHI to make a few big acquisitions before they draw up his next contract. But whatever his mystery injury is, a whole season of recovery is also too speculative. Another one I was trying to envision was convincing some of the big fish UFA's to take 1 year super affordable contracts with a handshake deal that they will get more favorable contracts after next season with some nice signing bonuses or something, when Kane and Toews contracts are up. But again, everything is speculative and I'm sure none of the big fish want to do anything like that or at least their agents wont. Maybe I'll just do it anyway and let all the haters fill the comments section. haha
