So are the full schedules out or what?
Sweeten the pot and/or retain salary as necessary to get it done.No one is going to trade for Orpik

Unbelievable! They play a back to back to begin the season then they are off for just about a week and then they have another back to back. It's good to be the defending SC Champion!
If I was NYI I wouldn't touch Orpik. I'd offer Carlson 7x10 in UFA.If i was NYI I would get Grubauer and Orpik

Have a sneaky 2 year window whilst Barzal is still on his entry level deal?
Thats probably close to a playoff team?
God gawd, you'd be out of your Yanni Gourde to do that.If I was NYI I wouldn't touch Orpik. I'd offer Carlson 7x10 in UFA.
Cap space is not an issue for the Isles at all. Getting that number one defenseman is more important than worrying about 2m in overpayment.God gawd, you'd be out of your Yanni Gourde to do that.
The Hurricanes are one of five or six teams with serious interest in the Washington Capitals' Philipp Grubauer, a restricted free agent, but there's stiff competition for the top goalie on the market.
“He's the best option, I think, that's out there,” Washington general manager Brian MacLellan said. “You maybe look at the past goalies that have gone, it's probably a late first(-round pick), maybe an early second. ... He wants to be a No. 1 somewhere. He doesn't want to be a No. 2 anymore, and we want to accommodate his wishes.”
The Hurricanes have a second-round pick, 42nd overall, to offer, but the New York Islanders, who could flip first-round picks with Washington – the 11th or 12th for the 31st – are considered the front-runners. Any Grubauer deal involving a swap of first-round picks would have to happen by Friday night, so there's some time pressure on the Capitals to get that done.
