Knies probably belongs in the top 9. Otherwise you might as well send him down to get more minutes and develop.

Why is Reaves on the third line and Knies on the fourth?

Knies-Kampf-Jarnkrok
Lafferty-Holmberg-Reaves

It’s pretty obvious, no?

Yeah, Knies and Jarnkrok could always swicth between third and fourth line. I can only put one player on each line, and I went with the player who carries the most cap on the third line. Same (convoluted? lol) logic applies to Kampf-Holmberg and Reaves-Lafferty. For now anyway. This is only Part 1 and I expect to make changes throughout the summer

Not gonna lie...I did not even notice that. Saying that, I didn't know what to do with Matt Murray as I tried trading him but kept getting this note saying (paraphrasing) this trade does not meet NHL central registry standards, so after a couple of more failed attempts to trade him, I just healthy scratched him so I can publish this thread

Give Sammy a year as Starting Goaltender, and then in 2024, when the salary cap goes up for real, he can earn his pay (and possibly term) next summer

Cool idea but he has to agree to it which is unlikely. Also when is he a ufa?
