The Wild are a mess.
they really need to figure out what they are doing through next year and start dealing with it now - this disaster season was a long time coming
That is $7.4 mill each for Suter and Parise. Not a whole lot of flexibility. That is 11-12 mill of cap space wth a 14 man roster. they excluded Rossi and Letteiri who are currently on the roster. So, they need to include 9 more players to get to a 23 man roster. A top 4 Dmen would then mean almost everyone else is at a contract amount that can be buried in the A. Which include another goalie, but that could be Wallstedt on an ELC. Plus they are using LTIR, thus any performance bonuses will be pushed towards next season and reduce what they have available to spend.Probably nothing! They'll have around 11-12m in cap space and last season is the final of the 7.4m dead cap hit. Probably look to add a top-4 defenceman, some defensive depth, and a couple of bottom-6 forwards. Hope to make the playoffs but otherwise be competitive.

Capfriendly lists only 14 contracts, which I assume would mean the 2 forwards. Not sure why they do that sometimes. I counted everyone else and it should be 16, but if they included those 2 then that should be $1.8 mill less in cap room and they'd need 7 players with $10 mill or less remaining. But, these are 6 figure cap charges, so not a big deal that capfriendly excluded them.Yeah, 14.7m cap charge. Why wouldn’t you include Rossi?

I did count those guys manually since they have contracts next season.Because Zuccarello and Brodin remain on IR and LTIR. You have to manually move up them up to the main roster.
With that, and moving Lettieri off the roster, that puts them at 12-13 and 15 roster spots. The only urgent need, apart from an actual roster overhaul and commitment, is a top-4 defenseman, defensive depth, and bottom-6 forwards. Easily attainable.
Canucks are not the brand Leafs are who played Detroit at the big house for one of these. US event. Besides, don’t need to see anymore jersey variations from the Canucks.Does it really matter if the Canucks play in it or not?

Love the ass stuffI’m sick and tired of the Winter Classic.
It’s ass beyond hemmroids right now, stale, boring and dumpster juice.
kraken only 2 points back of the wild card; the-canucks-should-trade-for-larsson-and-gourde chatters in shambles
I’m so angry at Daccord.
i don't think seattle ever would have seriously considered moving either anyways. gourde especially is effectively their captain and larsson is a guy who chose seattle and i think they'll reward that
schwartz and schultz would have been (and i guess still could be, depending) good targets at the deadline though
