Shero has form for turning 2nd and 3rd round picks into nice players from teams up against the cap. We've just gained a spare 2nd and 3rd. Who would you target this summer if you were Shero?
Tampa needs to pay Point - Callaghan and a prospect always seems to get mentioned on here.
Calgary needs to pay Tkachuk - yes Smith is UFA but they'll still need to sign a starting goalie so could have a problem.
San Jose needs to pay Meier - a few UFAs but if they want to keep Karlsson, Pavelski then they may have issues.
There's a few other teams that are in a mess up there.
Realistically, what bargains could be had?
