There isn't a contract on the roster that is hurting the organization or keeping them from resigning players or blocking the signing of other players. There are overpaid contracts but they are an annoyance not a hindrance.
BTW, there are ways around the 50 contract limit, just sign the prospects you want to their ELC then sign the vets you want in Laval to an AHL contract, it prevents the vets from being called up but also doesn't count towards the 50 contract limit.
I think its kind of funny trading guys like Kovacevic and Dvorak as if they are cap dumps but both contracts end after next season and Kovacevic's contract is less than the Peeke buyout cost, which would also have an additional year added on to it.
Monahan does not make sense, he would just be blocking younger guys from developing at the NHL level and the Armia-Newhook-Gallagher line was great near the end of the season, I would like to see them start next season together.
Why are you breaking up Caufield-Suzuki-Slafkovsky? Do you not realize they were the highest scoring line in the league from the TDL to the end of the season, it seems like a really big mistake to not go into next season with that line intact.
