An interesting roster I saw on capfriendly.
Final Pre-June Thoughts - Trades w TOR NYR and VGK - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps
Mitchell > JokiharjuInteresting roster. The question is who to keep; Jokiharju or Mitchell? Jokiharju might keep you Gus and Mitchell as they might take HJ straight up. Is Gus + Nylander + IM > HJ + Nylander? I think it might be.
Mitchell > Jokiharju
GUYS! NIKITA ZAITSEV IS AVAILABLE! WE HAVE TO GET HIM!
Nylander
Zaitsev
Marleau
Gustafsson
Let’s do them a favor.
CS2 did you look at the contracts?
No, I did not, I just pulled the idea out of my ass and posted it.
Personally I'm not fond of cap hell
Nylander
Zaitsev
Marleau
Gustafsson
Let’s do them a favor.
Zaitsev alone has 5 years left at 4.5M cap hit
All 3 together would eat up almost all our cap space in offseason as well (Remember cap is likely not to be as high as that initial 83M forecast from earlier in year)
That is not happening
They will find taker for Callahan's 1 year by offering something like a 2nd or something else
There's no way Tampa moves Sergachev (who is on an ELC) while they're in cap hell.The more I think about it, the more I’d like to see Tampa Bay have to offer up a premium piece to unload the last year of Callahan’s deal. Something like Sergachev and Callahan for our 2nd would be nice. More realistically, it’d be Gus instead of our 2nd. I view Sergachev as similar value (probably a little higher IMO) to where Teuvo was when we traded him with Bickell.
I still think Sergachev has top-pairing potential, has good size and physicality, and is left handed. I think he plays RD. Not sure if he could play both. A Boqvist-Sergachev future top pairing would be funny to see as both players have been known to play on their off-hand side. This is if we draft Turcotte at #3. If we take Byram at #3, I’d try to get Cirelli for taking on Callahan’s last year.
Mitchell > Jokiharju
I don't think Cirelli and sergachev are both off limits IMO from a Tampa perspective. I do think we could get Miller, Johnson of Pallat from Tampa though.
I really don't want to see Stan bring a guy like Callahan here even if it is for one year.
We really need to let some young guys get opportunities and to take flight.
We don't need another Kruger or Kunitz blocking ice time from the young guys
