Welcome to CapFriendly. Sometimes, it's not too friendly.

None of the big-ticket UFAs is going to sign a one-year deal; they're all going to ask for stability. As to amounts, the first three are okay, but the last three are all going to get quite a bit more. I expect Montour to get at least $6 million.

You'll be lucky to get a fifth for Reaves or a sixth for Timmins.

Buffalo isn't going to trade a productive young top-liner for one season of a declining expensive John Tavares. Make one of the picks a first and the Sabres still decline; make them both firsts and I still say that Buffalo wouldn't be interested.

Cap-stressed Vegas will keep the incredibly cheap Thompson as their backup rather than lose him for a more expensive bottom-6 forward that they don't need.

Don't be discouraged by criticism. We all had rocky starts. Keep on posting!

Thread: 2 biggest problems gone
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>kohnsharkosz</b></div><div>Except they already have roster spots to fill with no cap to do it. This will not help. Remember, Liljegren is going to get a raise this year, through arbitration or negotiation. So Toronto has to retain for this to work. I suspect Marner resigns there if this were to happen. And knowing that org, that's where he is going to end up. Then he'll trip over a cactus in February and play video games by the pool at Stone's house with Hertl until the playoffs.</div></div>

:tearsofjoy. They could probably get away with saying that he reaggravated the high-ankle sprain that he suffered in March and claim it never fully healed.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Greysuits</b></div><div>The knights don't need lijegren so they can either trade him, leave him out of the deal or trade another D like McKnabb and sign Lijegren for less.</div></div>

There is also the option of the Leafs or another team retaining 2-3M on Marner, so that they could sign Liljegren. The other two roster spots will just have to be filled by cheap players.

Thread: Where to go now
Thompson has a lower body injury, wrist injury, and a broken thumb i think. They didnt shut him down. Tuch separated his shoulder in camp. They didnt shut him down. Skinner is definitely concussed, its like his 8th one. Then Cozens broke his face fighting hathaway, and then got in a fight with a staircase (not kidding look up the video). There's your shooting regression explained.

The PP is the coaches fault

They'll trade one of Samuelsson or Jokiharju for someone like Cates, Kotkaniemi, Nic Roy etc. Basically a really fast 3C who can chip and chase (aka beat the trap). At least one of the first rounders in the minors will make the jump to the NHL team too. If I were handicapping it id say:

1. Savoie
2. Kulich
3. Rosen

Levi becomes back up, that's the team for next year.
