Thread: Fix it without big move
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sakupi</b></div><div>YEAH but with the WPG deal we weren't in the need of a good backup bcause we had Niemi. Now we have Lindgren. We need a decent back up goalie. Allen is not a #1. But he's not a bad goalie too. Problem is fix for 2 years. The price is too high for a back up goalie. But with an interesting assets why not? They will not give Thomas or Kyrou. I dont want Kostin. I don't think we need a Barbashev. So Fabbri or Edmundsson was the 2 target to me.

Maybe we can go Florida for Reimer or Luongo +++


Id like Anders Nilsson but he just sign in OTT</div></div>

No need to spend 4+ million on a backup goalie is all I’m suggesting when we already pay Carey 10.5. Way too much money invested into 1 position. Lindgren is fine enough, and if it’s thought he’s not good enough, there will be backups available from league minimum-2M AAV during free agency

Thread: Fix it without big move
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sakupi</b></div><div>Never i've put Scandella ont the top 4. For me he's a bottom pairing LD but can move the puck and play SH. I also said that he will resigne at a hometown discount. 4M is only for this year, and i don't think Bergevin will go All in for this year, he will keep the gap on the future/present.


Fabbri is the price to pay to say Bye to the very big Allen contract. 2 years left on this deal, so the '' on the side of the deal '' needs to be good enough. I was thinking at Joel Edmundsson but i do think the Blues will lock him for long term that's why i'll go with Fabbri. Very good upside IF HE CAN STAY HEALTHY wich is a big question.</div></div>

No I completely understand your thoughts, but I just think investing 12M of cap space into a backup goalie, 3rd pairing Dman and question mark winger is poor cap and asset management.

The habs have a log jam in their bottom 6, fabbri just adds another body into the mix.

Like I mentioned before, if we take on a cap hit it should be similar to the WPG deal, short term and easy to buyout. I think the most pressing issue is a top pair LHD

Thread: Realistic scenario
This looks fairly good overall, my only thought would be Hainsey at 1.5 may be too little, considering how shallow the UFA D class is this season. He enjoys playing for Toronto and Babcock though so maybe helps out with a discount. It concerns me for leaf fans seeing realistic armchair Gms like this, because frankly their D core is ultimately looking like it will become weaker than it already was (which is the apparent reason for the postseason failure).

I personally believe for this team to have a legit shot at seriously contending next year and on, they'll have to move on from nylander. He is a great player, but they played very well without him, and the leafs could keep Kapanen, and add a serious upgrade to their ailing defence in a situation where he's moved (Carolina for one of their RD makes a lot of sense).

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Poehling</b></div><div>He's gonna be 30 yo &amp; we wont have the cap space to keep him. Danault Kotkaniemi Poehling Gallagher gonna need an extention, &amp; the year before Domi Mete Juulsen will get a big raise.</div></div>

Poehling’s extension won’t be very rich at that point - he’s probably playing in the AHL and only 1 year of NHL experience going into the contract. KK hopefully plays himself into a 5M approx contract. Gallagher should be getting a $3M increase. Danault as well probably up to around 5.5M. We will also have Shaw off the books by then, and nearly alzner contract gone as well. It’s not the salary cap that worries me for who stays/leaves more so than the upcoming expansion draft for Seattle in 2021.
