I think Petrovic is gone and Manning will be buried.I hope thread bans were handed out. That was nauseating.
Anyways, this trade deadline will be interesting with us being over the cap. I am curious how Gretzky will handle it.
Probably one of Petrovic, Manning and Benning gone?
At least two of them. Petrovic would be easy to move since he's a UFA. They won't get anywhere near what they paid for him though.I hope thread bans were handed out. That was nauseating.

Will be interesting to see if they trade guys like Talbs, Chiasson, Rieder.

Makes sense. I still have a little hope that Spooner contract may get traded. Very very very small hope. Practically non-existent but in a package deal you'll never know.
I don't see it. IMO we need to just wait it out and then if need be buy him out this offseason. We would've been better off not extending Strome and we don't need other useless players here that won't outplay their contracts as we are already bursting at the seams with these kinds of players.
Aren’t they all done except lucic after next season?Yeah, that just seems more likely to play out. Just sucks that it's probably going to be at least 2-3 years to get some of those dead contracts out. What a mess.
Sekera and Russel have one more yearAren’t they all done except lucic after next season?
Well the jury is still out on Sekera. Russel is dead weight? Certainly has struggled lately but I wouldn’t call him a “dead weight contract”. We are stuck with Spooner but he seems be responding on his stint in the AHL. Hopefully he comes back confident and actually contributes something in a game for a change.Sekera and Russel have one more year
But Spooner, Benning, Kass etc come off the books after next year.

Well 4 and 2.I concur with 780il. And yea, the Lucic is another 5 years and the Pouliot buyout ends in 3 years.
lol, yeah, I was counting this year. But yeah that sounds more tolerable. XDWell 4 and 2.
Don’t buy Spooner out. Try to trade him at 50% retained over the summer. Cheaper in the long haul to do that and a new team can farm him and only take about a 675K hit. A floor team may take him under those circumstances if we toss in a pick. I just hope we don’t buyout too many deals that expire end of the 2019/2020 season. Why extend cap hell further. Just eat the **** sandwich Chiarelli served us.

We save 1 million to the cap with Spooner in the minors correct?Buyouts aren't preferred, it will all depend on what's available and how badly we want to open up space. If we can move some players for picks at the deadline and then attach those picks to get rid of bad contracts it could help us and open a lot of cap and roster space next season.
