Awesome that is some luck. I guess with STL getting 6th overall they keep this years pick and I get their 2020 1st?

Would be up to St.Louis’ GM to decide whether they wish to defer or not.

 

[Gecklund]

Currently have 1 series tied. I want at least 1 or 2 more votes before the cup.

 

[LT]

How will the Cup vote be decided? In-house or polls board?

I'm thinking polls but willing to do in-house. I was thinking a 24 hour poll and then since draft is on Sunday, the playoffs would be done in time (not that many playoff teams have picks left)

You created a great team! Still not sure how you managed to keep under the cap but you did

Getting half of stone was a good play. Need to win the cup now because he won’t be able to afford much in the off season...nature of the beast.

Fortunately looks like I’ll get it

You got my vote!

 

[Dichow Stopper]

Both teams are likely keeping their first round pick (8th and 10th overall) but listening to offers.

 

[Dichow Stopper]

Ryan Poehling is expected to join the team next season.

Tomas Plekanec and Jordie Benn will not receive a new contract offer and will become unrestricted free agents on July 1st.

 

[Dichow Stopper]

Youth movement coming in Long Island. Oliver Wahlstrom, Nick Suzuki, Noah Dobson, David Toews and Ilya Sorokin are expected to make the team next season.

Brock Nelson, Valtteri Filppula, Luca Sbisa and Robin Lehner will not receive a new contract offer and will become unrestricted free agents on July 1st.

 

[OB5]

Are happy to have made the playoffs with Jake Allen finishing strong down the stretch. We are still open to any and all discussions and are actively looking to move James Neal and one of Mark Giordano or TJ Brodie for futures.

We have signed the following RFAs to new deals:

Sam Bennet: 2 years, 2,500,000
Matthew Tkachuk: 3 years, 5,000,000
David Rittich: 2 years, 1,000,000

Qualify:
Curtis Lazar
Spencer Foo
Kerby Rychel
Ryan Lomberg
Morgan Klimchuk
Josh Healy
Mason McDonald


A bit bummed Tarasenko-McDavid didn't get more respect around the league but we understand the reputation that comes with the San Jose Sharks logo. We are still actively looking to move Milan Lucic, we will tack on big pieces to make it worth your while. Also looking to move Ryan Strome, Zach Kassian. Moving into 19-20, Kris Russel now has to submit a 10 team trade list so moving him is doable.

We have signed the following RFAs to new deals:

Tobias Reider: 2 years, 2,250,000
Jesse Puljujarvi: 1 year, 1,000,000
Ty Rattie: 1 year, 1,750,000

Qualify:
Juhar Khaira
Tyler Vesel
Patrick Russell
Colin Larkin
Joel Persson

 

[Peter Griffin]

Happy to announce the following re-signings:

Brock Boeser- 3 years, $15M
Ben Hutton- 3 years, $9M
Thatcher Demko- 2 years, $1.8M

And have signed Quinn Hughes to a 3 year, entry level contract.

 

[AveryStar4Eva]

Happy to be back in the playoffs and give Winnipeg a run for their money. This year we are going to build on this year and try to add more scoring help.

Re-Signings

Esa Lindell - 5.000M, 5 years
Mattias Janmark - 2.400M, 3 years
Julius Honka - 1.200M, 1 year
Jason Dickinson - 0.900M, 1 year
Gemel Smith - 0.900M, 1 year

Connor Carrik, Brett Ritchie, Jason Spezza, Marc Methot, and Roman Polak have not been re-signed. We aren’t opposed to bringing Spezza back, but need to figure out the cap situation first.

Dallas has nearly 20M in cap space so look for them to be big players in free agency and the trade market. Looking for a bonifide top six centre, winger, and a solid bottom pairing defenceman. Could also upgrade on our second pairing defence. Either right or left shot as Miro plays both sides.

Open to trading Nichushkin, Shore, Dickinson, Honka, Johns, Gurianov, Hintz, Tufte, Dellandra, Ericsson for upgrades.

[AveryStar4Eva]

Glad to have picked up a high pick in this years draft. They should play immediately. Everyone on the roster besides Kopitar and Doughty are still up for grabs. Salary retention is possible as is taking on cap dumps.

So when can we call the vote?

 

[LT]

Once trading reopens, the UFA rights to Mark Stone and Jordan Eberle could be had for a mid round pick from a team looking to get a jump on a big name UFA.

JT Miller, Tyler Johnson, and Alex Killorn are also all available in cap clearing deals, preferably for future assets.

 

[Gecklund]

Okay. We are calling it!

Congrats !!!

 

[Gecklund]

UFA resignings!

Joe Thornton-1 year at 3M with a NMC
Joe Pavelski-4 years at 6.5M with a NMC
Joonas Donskoi-4 years at 3.5M
Marcus Sorenson-2 years at 1.75M

and the big one!

Erik Karlsson-8 years at 11M with a NMC

When trading opens at the draft, we will be looking to trade Brendan Dillon and Aaron Dell for cheaper options

 

[Gecklund]

I know triple post but three entirely unrelated posts

Do we want to raise the cap a bit for the “next season?” Most seasons the cap goes up. Right now it’s at 80M do we want to raise it to like 82-83 or keep it there?

Realistically it should raise a bit so I’m on board with that

 

[OB5]
