Hoffman for Zucker

nah, I'd rather pay the assets to get rid of the deal. Get someone like Domi or Marchment instead

I like nichushkin or Pulijujarvi for MTL
Lafreniere too, but it'd cost too much

I like a lot of what you did here. I am assuming you meant to put Ruhdwedel instead of Friedman. I also worry about a matheson letang pair defensively, but I think the pens coaching staff could guide them to success. Lastly I wonder if it is worth it to play carter on the wing at his age so you can put trochek at his natural position. maybe tanev-malkin-carter, marchment-trochek-domi

overall I love where your head is at

Habs decline 1

Habs decline the 3rd is worth more than legare and zucker is negatove value

Habs and Sea say no
Det accepts
I think Rakell gets in the 4.5-5M range

Habs and Kraken say no

Ruhwedel and Friedman are pretty similar for me, I like what they both did this year. Ruhwedel is probably more steady tho. but thanks!

M NTC. 5.5m Zucker just can't be wished away.

Fair deals throughout, but two things:

1. I really doubt Habs are in acquisition mode, so the Zucker deal probably wouldn't happen.
2. Domi is an extremely aggravating player. As a Habs fan, I had my share of "this guy's pretty good!" and "what's wrong with him?" moments.

Solid ACGM, bud!
