Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

Here's my dream scenario for 2022/23 ($6.485M in cap space)

Moving forward to 2023/24

Assume a little cap bump (+$1M = $7.485M)
Hamonic contract done (+$3M = $10.485M)
Holden contract done (+1.3M = $11.785)
Gambrell + Watson up (+2.45M = $14.235)
Phaneauf buyout done (+354K = $14.589)
Gus trade or walk (+787k = $15.376M)
Del Zotto gone (+$2M = $17.376M)
Stutzle Contract (-$8M raise = $9.376)
Zub Contract (-$2.5M raise = $6.876)
Pinto Contract (-$3.5M raise = $3.876M)
Debrincat Contract (-$3M raise = $875k)
Kastestic contract (equal money ish)
Thompson, Greig, Sokolov/Boucher, Sogaard Graduate (even money)
Sign min D if have to (-750K = $125k)

Gives them a clear 3 year window under sanderson's ELC through 2024-25 and out strategies/flexibility in the off season with Norris, Giroux, Joseph, Formenton, Brannstrom, and Forsberg up.

I know its very unlikely ottawa spends this money but that's why I call it dreamin!

No thanks, we don't want Zaitsev. (I don't think anybody does)

We don't have the cap space anyway and we're already looking to move some contracts so, I don't see the point for Montreal.

youre right no one does, possible he goes in the chychrun trade with more assets, but you make a good point about cap space, it definitely not the best fit there, my mind slipped. Regardless he's gone somewhere

Do you see Ottawa retaining 50% on a Brown deal or are they too poor.
