Maybe win a few games first. Create some separation in the standings.

The Salary Cap says ‘no’ . Still must be compliant. Will need the space they have to activate Maroon if he can go before playoffs I believe.

As well as aside from emergency you can only have 4 call ups until the playoffs.

Right. So they have the space to call up another player now.

Yes, but again it would count against the 4 allowed.

They only have 12 forwards so they’re going to have to use one of those now anyway.

Possibly, but my response was to the plurals as proposed in OP.

Wally - 4 call-ups as in different players ?

So if Lohrei is sent back and forth, is that none since he was up, 1 since it's 1 person, or each time counts as 1 of the 4....

 

[Gee Wally]

My understanding is 4 transactions call ups. If Im wrong Im sure @DominicT will correct me.
( its his side job )

Its 4 regular call ups. So calling the same guy up 4 times is 4 call ups.

There is no point in sending guys down and back up at this point. There is no more banking of cap space.

The only reason Lohrei and Brazeau were sent down yesterday was so that they would be eligible for the AHL playoffs. They had to be on the roster as of 3 pm yesterday to be eligible.

But at the same time i assume recalling them would mean using 2 of those precious 4 call ups.

No. Anyone called up after 5 PM today will count

Thank you kind sir, I appreciate your knowledge and understanding greatly. I hope you are doing well

So looking forward to next year, they will have a bunch of money to spend. They need to sign Swayman (~$7M), sign a 1C, and an LD.

I'm guessing Lindholm is plan A at center at about $8-$8.5M. Plan B is probably Chandler Stephenson. He would likely come in cheaper. And the rest of UFA centers are underwhelming. Maybe Plan C is trade Ullmark for C.

On D, gotta think Hanifin is plan A and maybe Skjei as plan B for long-term commitments. If they can't get either of them, they're probably looking at more short-term vets. Maybe Brendon Dillon.

Looking like a strong lineup for next year if they can get the guys they want.

Boston Bruins sign Joey Abate to one-year contract

The physical forward has two goals and 10 points with 104 penalty minutes in 40 games with Providence.

I think it's going to be either a top 6 center or a top 4 dman. I don't think the Bruins have the cap space to do both, especially if Lindholm commands 8-9.

Chandler Stephenson will most likely hit the market now that Vegas has Hertl and will be more cost efficient than Lindholm. Had an awesome playoff run last season, so he knows what it takes to win.

 

[JoeIsAStud]

I do think they will try to sign Hanifin if he makes it to market because it seems Donny loved him.

Otherwise i think they go more for a physical 4/5 defenseman, because they believe Lohrei will be a top 4.

As others mentioned before the deadline Lindholm/Hanifin/Lohrei may be ok for a year or 2, but it doesn't really give any room for Lohrei to develop into the top 4 guy many believe he will be

im thinking Hanifin stays in vegas past this season

He might. It's a tough place to live, and i wouldn't want to raise a family there, but that's me.

Of course as i said before, IF you are super rich, and Hanifin is an will be, any NHL city is a beautiful place to live.

Vegas extended Hanifin 8/$56mil.
