Thread: VGK and OTT 3 way trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Gofnut999</b></div><div>I forgot to factor Ckarkson in. You sure stll? They have 4.2 in cap space. Clarkson and Eakin gives them another 9.1 = 13.3. Minny contracts = 13.8. Still over. But thery are already over the roster size so some housekeeping could make it work.</div></div>

Yep I just made a Vegas team with this trade. With a 23 man roster they have $1.7M in space (I'm not sure who Vegas' bottom 6 players are so I just kept the more expensive players to be conservative in my estimate).

Here's the lineup I have for them:

Marchessault - Karlsson - Smith
Pacioretty - Staal - Niederreiter
Haula - Stastny - Tuch
Lindberg - Carpenter - Reaves
Theodore - Spurgeon
McNabb - Miller
Merill - Holden

Scratches are Bellemare, Engelland, Schmidt (with his suspension)
Clarkson on LTIR

Shows <strong>$1,737,500</strong> in space.

I was shocked myself when I saw how much space they had which is why I made this trade in the first place!

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>VRCR</b></div><div>Love the Faulk trade, reallly makes sense for the team but time is tight to make it happen.
In terms of the lines, there’s a lot of changes. Hyka is no where near making the 23-man squad. Based on how things have gone so far in the preseason, I could see Haula playing 2ndLine RW with Stas and Patches. I would then put Nosek-Eakin-Tuch as the third. The fourth would be Carrier-Belle-Pirri/Carpenter.</div></div>

Honestly, I got the lines from this article about what their bottom six should look like and just took that. Hyka being part of it surprised me too, but I just assumed he was closer than I'd guessed. So you probably know better than me what the lines should be, this is just based on some article tbh
