It won't ever happen, but I would rather keep Nyquist and play with with Kaprizov than Zucc especially given Zucc will be 36 next year and Nyquist is a couple years lower.
Confirmed with Link: Gustav Nyquist for a 2023 5th
- Thread starter Bazeek
- Start date
Nyquist is getting better, game by game. Even though he was scoring early on, i thought he looked rusty.
I would definitely consider moving Zucc, and keeping Nyquist and MJo.

100%. His speed and creativity would be so nice with Kap.

If we could get Zucc to LTIR for some lingering injury until playoffs we could "easily" resign everyone minus Dumba

Yeah, the only way Fleury comes off the books is if he retires. Billy ain't moving him. MAF said several times how all the moving (Vegas/Chicago/Minnesota) in such a short period of time was difficult for the family. So I'm sure BG sold him last summer a promise of not moving him, and he probably wants Fleury to mentor Gus a bit. I can see his plan that he probably set in stone of running with the same two guys next year, and then Wallstedt comes up the following year to learn from Gus.
Don't rush Wally.
he also rang a post on the Rossi pass in the final game, i think.
Dumba from last night is why if he is willing to take a bargain contract, you have to consider it!

He loves it here, he loves his teammates, his teammates love him... he's made good money through his career here. I could see him staying for $2.5-$3m.

That would be ideal, but still would need to move a significant amount of salary via trade/LTIR, unfortunately. It will be an interesting offseason again,
I say figure out how to dump some dead weight and offer him 3.5x2 with a promise to make up for it when the dead shitbag money is done.

I already had him included at $1.05M, as well as Shaw and a 13th forward at $800k each. They are pretty easy to pencil in.

Delete.
Actually, completely forget what I said. I forgot to include Suter's buyout number.
Done , talk Zucc into retiring and give him the PP coach job and talk Flower into retiring and give him the goalie coach job lol

No offense but that seems like a pretty big miss
So it's actually closer to 3M per player.

Yep. Dropped the average down to $2.5M per player.No offense but that seems like a pretty big miss

This isn't actually that far out of line with what the acquired are currently making.
Nyquist - 2.75
Johansson - 1.1M
Out of curiosity, I averaged out current salaries:
(Nyquist - 2.75) + (Johansson - 1.1) + (Dumba - 6) + (Gustavsson - .788) / 4
=
Roughly 2.7M/player

Yeah, and that's with Fleury and Goligoski still on roster. Figure out something with them and it opens back up a bit.
He could easily get a 5x5M offer. He might love it here, but if it’s gonna cost him 10M? He hasn’t made that much money. His next contract is likely the best one he is going to get, going forward.
