Im am not so sure about that lol but we could add a 2nd round pick</div></div>

A great two way center signed for I think 5 years on a pretty good contract from when this trade takes place for a scoring winger who lacks defensive play that is signed for only one year and then will get a significant pay increase. Pacs is also two years older. Gonna take a lot more to break up some of the best center depth in the league.</div></div>

Dude, are you for real ? haha He is signed for 6 years, for 7.5M which is not really a GOOD contract. It is a normal contract IMO.
Pacio lacks defensive play ? You lost credibility here. He might not be as good defensivly as ROR, but he is a way better scorer and has better stats.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Manfred</b></div><div>With Pleky's salary, you can't afford 9.5Mil$ for Draisaitl. And if you could, with Price contract next year, you end up with what Edm will experience in the coming years. That means, next year, you don't have the money to resign Mantha, Danault, Jerabek. If the cap goes up by 2Mil$, you'll have about 3.7Mil$ to resign one of the 3 and have to trade the other two or become really good at Tetris and do complicated tades IOT afford keeping them while giving for picks higher paid players. You would be in big trouble in my view.

You would need to plan the following: You have 22 players in your lineup and with Plekanec you are at -300K$. If you look at next year, it would look something like this:
Right now: -300K$
Cap goes up: +2Mil$
Don't sign Plekanec: +6Mil$
Price new contract: -4Mil$
Resign Mantha: -3Mil$
Resign Danault: -2Mil$
Resign Jerabek: -2Mil$
Plekanec replacement in the lineup: -1Mil$
So now you are in 2018 and you are missing 4.3Mil$ at least, probably more. So Shaw is the first Draisaitl victim and is traded, but you're still missing 400K$. Byron is the second victim and Scherbak makes the lineup but still missing 100K$. Then Mitchell is not resigned and McCarron take his spot, so now you're +150K$ but still have to replace Shaw in the lineup. Who's next victim? See where it goes and it keeps going like that everytime a Young player ends his entry level contract. So you become really good at Tetris.</div></div>

5,712,857 now,
