Not bad.
RFA:
Denisenko: 950K (he hasn’t proved that he is a full time NHL player, a nine game trial would be great)
Knight: 3,500,000M (he’s going to be great for a long time once he gets the starting role)
Carlsson: 975K (he’s a good bottom pairing d-man who can give you 10-12 Pts)
Stanley: 975K (similar to Denisenko he hasn’t proved that he is a full time NHL player)
Balcers: 1,250,000 (he’s a solid bottom six player but isn’t a 2.5M player)
UFA:
Zub: 4,500,000 (I don’t think he leaves Ottawa, they are working on a extension. He’s a great top 4 d-man)
Gudas: 2,500,000 (solid bottom 4 d-man who can give you 15-20 Pts)
Levtchi 995K (not sure who he is but he can get a roster spot)
Trades:
Makes sense to trade Bennett. Lindell will be once the 2C. He won’t go to Col. They don’t need a 2C or 3C. At least not yet.
Stanley can become good but I think it’s a risk to tarde a 25-30-35 point player for someone who hasn’t proven.
