Don’t buyout Vlasic. You are trying to reach the cap floor and a buyout doubles the term of dead money. That could hurt you in years you are trying to actual make the playoffs.
Don’t bring up any of the big names. Let them stay in juniors/ncaa. 2024-25 needs/ is going to be another rough year.
Take cap dumps that don’t hurt development. Just view Vlasic as a cap dump from Wilson.
I would try to trade Benning, Burroughs, and Smith over the summer if you need roster spots.
Rutta, Strum, Granlund, and any cap dump that improves play are your trade deadline pieces.
We need develop top 6 forwards and top pairing Dman. We look ok in cover the bottom and middle pairing.
We just have to wait and see on Logan. Last report didn’t sound good. He might be IR / LTIR for the rest of his contract.
