Speculation: 2023 Off-Season Thread II: We're all gonna die edition

[TheSchmidt]

There are a TON of good options to fill out the roster, assuming Killorn is gone.

Limited cap space, but a lot of those guys should be getting 1 year deals so they can go back on the market when the cap increases .

Just hope JBB goes for young guys with some upside potential instead of playing it safe like he did last year with Names and Cole.

Blackwood not qualified there the back up tender.

they are already working on a contract, didnt tender him cause it would have been more than 3m to do so

 

[Point21]

leaking shit early i see

 

[Todd1a]

Cal Foote did not get a QO and is a free agent tomorrow, interesting.

If we sign him back then that makes the trade look less worse lol

 

[Crunchrulz]

Very good point.

Bolts Jolts is tweeting about having 10-11M in cap space to spend tomorrow if Killorn doesn't return and they dump or bury all of Fleury, Myers and Bogo.

Is this accurate?

as it sits with them on roster, we have 7.3m, Bury Myers adds 1.2m, dump Bogo and Fleury adds another 1.6m, so yes we would have roughly 10.5m in cap to fill a lot of spots

A lot of spots, yes. But if theres ever a year of a bounty of depth FAs its this one. Bolts might have struck some luck here.

If they waived all 3 to the minors yes close to that . If they waive just Myers it’s around 8.475 million in space

Vladdy for 2.5 AVV lol what a wonderful signing last year from JBB

 

[The Gongshow]

Duchene would be a great pickup, but I doubt it happens

 

[Five Alarm Fire]

TBH, Duchene doesn't strike me as a guy who cares about winning that much. If I had to guess he'll take the biggest paycheck.

I would love to sign schenn or gudas cheap because it would be our defense a lot. Then we need to sign or fill from within at least 3 forwards. Yamamoto would be a guy to try target for cheap top 6. Bottom 6 guys will be available just need JBB to sell Champa Bay and make up for the jeannot trade.

 

[Outl4w]

The ducks kid comois is worth a league minimum one year deal..Big rig could teach him some new tricks. Also Watson would be a guy to target for bottom 6?

 

[Todd1a]

1 year 2.25 AVV

Let’s get ready to rumble! Reaves v. Jeannot 2023-24

 

[b0lthed]

Lightning to sign Conor Sheary and Luke Glendening. Sheary is a productive veteran with at least one ring on his resume. Older but still fast. Shrimpy but gives good effort. Solid signing for the third line. Glendening is a fourth liner only but he’s elite at defense, penalty killing, faceoffs etc

Tampa Bay Lightning Sign Conor Sheary, Four Others

The Tampa Bay Lightning are signing forwards Conor Sheary and Luke Glendening to bolster their bottom six, Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman …

Going from Killorn and Colton to Sheary and Glendening, hopefully the actual Killorn replacement is still coming, as neither of those guys are remotely close. The 4th line remains slow and old it seems, aside from Eyssimont, but perhaps a Crunch F or two will emerge as has been the case in the past.

Sheary is the Killorn replacement unfortunately

No help is coming. We're all gonna die confirmed

Very unfortunate if that's the case

 

[FinnLightning26]

I like the Glendening signing. Good 4th line center with faceoff and penalty killing ability.

 

[b0lthed]

Im just gonna ignore the negative nancies.

Even though TSN projected Sheary to make $3.7M, he’s not getting that and he’s not a top 6 forward. That projection is way off for a 30 year old third liner who made $1.5M each of the last two seasons. I expect that is his salary with us $1.5 or maybe even $1M

I think Sheary will be a nice wing on the third line. We need the speed. I’m looking forward to a bonafide scoring line wing to take Killorn’s spot.

 

[Flat Ronnie]

Sheary is getting 3x$2M.

I'm gonna doubt thats 2nd line money.

Idk though

That’s the Killorn replacement for sure
