A first for Blake Coleman at 5 mil? I know it’s 4/20, but put down the bong and get some help, man.

1. Vladar isn't worth nearly that much
2. NJD aren't trading there captain on a decent contract for 2 rentals(in positions they don't need to upgrade)
3. Eh IDK if NYI would do that
4. Coleman isn't worth a 1st
Congratulations you made a retool where the other team declines 4/4 times

This is the least realistic ACGM of the year.

Everything here is unrealistic except maybe Gustafsson accepting $3mil

-Vladar’s worth a 2nd at best
-Tarasenko & Stecher won’t sign for that cheap
-NJD won’t move Hischier
-NYI brought in & signed Horvat, so they won’t want Kadri
-Only place I see Coleman going is to DAL for maybe Faksa + Jakanpaa

We definitely don’t want Palmieri, but I understand if it got Kadri off our books, it’d be fine. I’m not a big fan of Kadri either

Sure, but not an early 2nd and a 3rd on top of that. More like a late 2nd to mid 3rd maybe.
Plus the Jackets want to give Tarasov a shot as the backup so I don't see them trading for a goalie.

Sure, I can agree with something like that

I think Kadri's contract would mess the cap up too much, but if they were to add another center, it would allow the Isles to run out a top line of Nelson-Horvat-Barzal which would probably be a ****ing awesome line.

Pens could just re-sign Zucker at a similar price and not have to waste a 1st.

Whatever, it was my first go at this and I'm probably living in the fantasy land of EA sports to be honest... that's just the kind of roster I feel we need. We don't really have a solidified top line and it really showed on the scoreboard this year. I'll keep trying, I was also kind of rushing it. I was trying to be as realistic with the trades as there are so many NMC's on the team and I don't exactly know their lists of teams they would want to go to. Not everyone just wants to be closer to home. I feel like we would definitely have to give more for that Hischier trade, but I get they wouldn't make a trade like that. We'd probably have to give up someone like Coronato. I don't like Kadri though so I'll look at other teams for him. Edit: I have made some changes and taken the trades back... Still working on the team.

Welcome to CapFriendly!

The feedback can be a bit crazy and negative sometimes, but you have a great attitude, so keep going and have fun with it.

I share your sentiments on Kadri, but we’re likely stuck with him, so hopefully he does well for us overall

I like your Trade targets. Another Guy on DAL I like, is Ty Dellandrea, but until we have a clear replacement for Toffoli and/or it turns out he’ll be too much to re-sign, I’m hesitant to move him, especially if Sutter remains behind the bench. Something like Toffoli for Dellandrea + Hakanpaa would fill 2 needs and save us a ton of Cap Space for sure though

My target in exchange for Hanifin would be Sam Reinhart who would be a Toffoli replacement for sure and can both play Centre and is better than Strome as well

Yeah I don't want to remove him either as he also does like playing for Sutter. So it depends on what happens with Sutter as a head coach. I was just trying not to trade as many NMC's but it's difficult with so many on the team. I'm working on another roster though... feedback I find on all sports platforms is always going to be negative because everyone thinks you need to agree with them, and cheer for their team etc. I'm working on a new roster. Might spend more time on it though.... didn't mean to multi quote lol.. getting used to this

Washington just extended Strome, so I can't see a world in which they immediately move on from him to add another defenseman, especially when Fehervary+Sandin+Alexeyev all need playing time on the left side.
