Well I just let the first thoughts go. The trades are questionable but who knows, tried to be realistic but again just off the top of my head. No lines just a roster.
On the chopping block: Matheson, Stralman, willing to trade a 1st with them to get better D.
If season is not going well entertain a trade involving Barkov or Huberdeau.
Forwards: 37,562,333
Huberdeau 5.9
Barkov 5.9
Hoffman RW resign 7.5x5
Connolly 3.5
Jay Beagle C(trade 2020 3rd 2021 conditional 2nd turns into an unprotected first if we make conference finals by end of 20-21 season and Yandle) 3.0
Vatrano 2.533
Saarel resign 2.0x3
Acciari 1.666
Tippett 863,333
Toninanto resign 1.5x2
Wallmark resign 2.0 x4
Sceviour 1.2
Defense 24,089,333
Brodin (Trade Borg + 2020 2nd and 3rd get 2020 6th. Would give 2020 first if necessary)4.166
Ekblad 7.5
Jack Johnson 3.25 (Trade Matheson 4.875 get 2020 5th)
Rasmus Ristolainen 5.4 (trade Stralman 5.5 and 2020 4th)
Stillman 773,333
Weegar RD resign 3.0x4

- Call a team meeting to discuss the season let them all know this is unacceptable. Let players know this is not personal, this is a job and they are not doing their job. Call out players individually about what I want them to work on in the off season. Everyone has work to do and by making everyone else aware they can be a team and hold each other accountable. Let them know changes are coming. We want to change this culture and they’ve won enough in their career to get to the NHL level. We need everyone to go from the losers they are now to winners. Anyone who can’t take direct feedback is not mentally strong enough to be on this team.
- Outline an encouraged optional off season program. It will show who is serious about changing this culture and making this a winning program. This will involve books to read like Phil Jackson does. Hire proven winners to come in and give talks. Players may attend in person or remotely. Phil Jackson and Pat Riley can kick things off. Provide optional film studies in the offseason. All of this is optional so as not to interfere with any player association offseason rules.
- Meet with the leadership. Ekblad, Huberdeau, Yandle, and Barkov. Let them know effective immediately all are stripped of their official leadership and will need to earn this back. Reiterate that losing is not something we should be comfortable with and if you are comfortable with that this is not the team for you. If you want an A or a C then we need to see your commitment this offseason. You must adapt failure to do so may involve being traded or benched. Even if you have a streak, Yandle. If your not willing to put in the work or adapt let us know and we will find another place for you.
- Find a Goaltending coach that is a good fit for Bob. His contract can’t be moved so we’re keeping him, let’s try to fix this.
- Overall goal for culture change of: Losing is not acceptable, accountability, and everyone is responsible for Defensive play.
- Drafting philosophy: highest skill upside on the board period. If you end up with too many forwards trade them for some d prospects. Picks will be traceable if it fills a need at the present with term.
- Free agent philosophy no one gets over $7 million a year unless they are under 30 or will be 35 or younger at expiration at the end of the and is meets certain performance requirements. Top of the league in certain criteria such as health, goals, assists, fewest turnovers with a high toi, etc.
- Players looking for money and asking for top dollar will be passed over the goal is a cup not a paycheck. You may be worth 8 by the leagues standard but if they can’t be happy with 7.2 10% less to help field a more competitive team then we will pass. Look at the Heat when they had the Big3
