This really does seem like a joke. Kadri on the fourth line and Martin a second liner? Also, why would we pay some of these players 2mil plus? Kaskisuo really seems like he won't make it far, Woll will do that. I don't see the need to sign Biega or Prout, or why you LTIR'd Zaitsev and Marleau? If anything we'd try and trade Marleau since his contract is so heavily based on signing bonuses, and if Zaitsev doesn't fit then there'll be more than enough chances to trade him.
I don't see Ellis signing for anything under 6 and half when his contract is up, but we can't predict the future because he could tank and not be worth that in two years time.
To be honest I just don't see how these future rosters are helpful when we don't know how these players will be playing. What if Matthews, Marner AND Nylander have back to back 70 point seasons then they'll all ask for more than 10 million by that point. That also depends on how the cap rises or what happens with injuries. I get it can be helpful for judging whether we can afford someone added to the roster, but it's all just guess work at this point.
