Few tweaks:
1. Lias as 3C- centering Names and Strome...Krav starts year in Hartford- not a punishment for him- but allows NYR to "showcase" Names and Strome as 3rd line players so hopefully one or both can be traded by mid season....best case- one or both bring back good value (once the trade market opens up)...worst case- they both tank- in which case waive one of them to make room for Krav at/around Christmas
2. 4C- the "winner" of Howden vs McKegg. If Howden- then he centers Lemieux and Fast- with McKegg as 13F. If McKegg- then he centers the same with Nieves as 13F and Howden starting in Hartford- to get big minutes playing with Krav.
3. Rykov starts in Hartford and Lindgren starts as 7D....but this is only desireable if Lindgren is given a chance in spelling Hajek and Staal to the point where he is playing in about 1/2 the games...any less than that and he is better off playing big minutes in Hartford with Smith in NY watching games from press box.
4. Buch starts on 1st line...Kakko to 2nd

Thread: New York Rangers signed Brendan Lemieux (1 Year / $925,000 AAV)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Brian2016</b></div><div>I think they should strongly consider a cap on the percentage of the cap that a player can make. For example, if the upper limit of the cap is $81.5M, the most a UFA/RFA can sign for would be 15% of the cap ($12.225M AAV). This would prevent runaway salaries for elite players and ensure that players like Lemieux are paid commensurate w/ their contributions. They've already taken many steps to spur competitive balance and fair cap structures by capping term of contract at 8 years. Buyout clause also helps, as does other aspects of the CBA.</div></div>

I think you should strongly consider reading the CBA.

There is a limit. It's 20%.
