FA Game #4 by Bingo, HC, and IR4

[Haligonian]

Alright, haha.

Should be interesting to see where he goes. Apparently your Islanders are willing to pay quite the price ($100 million over 10 years or something like that, isn't it?), you guys definetly have the cap space though. If I were to guess, i'd say he ends up back in New Jersey but we'll see what happens I guess.

 

[IslesRock4]

He's not signing with the Islanders, I can tell you that.

Congrats on Global.


Kovy to Devils = disappointing news. I would of liked to see him land in NYI. Somehow Eaton, Jurcina and Kenopka doesn't exactly spell moving out of the bottom 5.

Thanks.

I'd have to think they're going after others (Frolov? Poni? Stempniak? Kariya? Morrisonn? Sutton? Carson? Mitchell?). $9M under the floor, and Matt Moulson and Rob Schremp combined are not (oh, please not ) going to hit 9 million. Something has to happen.

Fun Fact: If no additions/re-signings happen (which obviously won't be the case, but stick with me here), the Islanders will have $42M in cap space next summer. And who knows how much the cap will go up.

Thornton at 7.5, Gagne at 6, Chara at 8, Markov at 6, Backes at 4.5. That leaves you 10 million for the other 12 players.

Mitchell would be a great addition if healthy. Frolov might be too depending on how well his style would mesh with Tavares/Bailey.

 

[IslesRock4]

Niederreitov - Tavarov - Petrov
Kabanov - Bailov - Okposov
Moulsov - Nielsov - Comeaov
Martiov - Konopkov - Huntov

Streitov - Eatov
MacDonov - Hillov
Jurcinov - Martinov

Rolosov
DiPietrov

Yeah, this Kovalchuk stuff is making me crazy.

 

[Backstrom #19]

So both IR and HC are global mods now?...

 

[NOTENOUGHJTCGOALS]

Wow.
Avs have ~10M to go to hit the floor and I thought we had too much room.

How can they be 42M under?

 

[Jamie Benn]

The are very pleased with there lineup.

Ryan Smyth - Anze Kopitar - Justin Williams
Dustin Brown - Jarret Stoll - James Neal
Matt Cooke - Brayden Schenn - Wayne Simmonds
Scott Parse - Oscar Moller - Brad Richardson

Richard Clune - Michal Handzus

Rob Scuderi - Drew Doughty
Nicklas Grossman - Thomas Hickey
Matt Greene - Peter Harrold
Johan Fransson

Jonathan Quick
Erik Ersberg

What if Kovy never signs?

This summer we're at 9 below the floor. Next summer we have $42M+ in space.

Next summer is going to be a wild one, seemingly every Isle is a FA (R or U).

Here is a possibility for two seasons from now:

Niederreiter ($2.5) - Tavares ($3.75) - Okposo ($4)
Moulson ($2) - Bailey ($3) - Petrov ($1.5)
Comeau ($1.75) - Nielsen ($.525) - Hunter ($2)
Martin ($.8525) - Konopka ($.75) - Gillies ($.6)
~23,227,500

Streit ($4.1) - Hamonic ($.875)
de haan ($1.5) - Eaton ($2.5)
MacDonald ($.55) - Hillen ($1.5)
~11,025,000

DiPietro ($4.5)
Koskinen ($1.15)
5,650,000

Lazy Russian Penalty: $2.204

~$42,106,500

If the cap goes up to around $61M, we could have $18.8ish cap space, under the floor, with a 20 man roster. I did make up a lot of these numbers but they are reasonable. If anything, I gave them too much.

I was just thinking the same thing He'll wait it out so us arm-chair GM's cant have our fun

Except that one we want to hit free agency the most

And gotta love that Martin-Konopka-Gillies line

They'd never score a goal but would literally beat the **** out of the whole league.

 

[IslesRock4]

****ing Kovalchuk. You guys still up for another game?

 

[Kessel>Seguin +]

ya lets get another one going. Its always fun to bid on Kovelchuk anyways

 

[Jarmac]

We could try next offseason...lots of good free agents there.

 

[Jamie Benn]

That's why I was thinking.

Sign the rest of 2010, do trades, trade deadline, re-signing, 2011 Free Agency.

I'm not sure about a draft.

 

[Haligonian]

Definetly.

 

[The Produce Man]

Great idea. I'd join up!

 

[matt trick]

I am in.

 

[scrappylilnobody]

I'm in and can help you out if you need it.

 

[IslesRock4]

I'm thinking that doing a trade deadline and voting and such will be too much.

My idea is to pool together all 2011 Free Agents and remaining 2010 Free Agents, and have a FA Frenzy. Trades can happen throughout. I'm not sure there would be a re-signing period, to make things easier. Although there would have to be a RFA re-signing period.

I'm cool with that. What about RFA's that haven't signed yet?

 

[AlexMaz]

I'd be down.
