All this positive vibe... and it will come crashing down on 7/1 when JR does his next dumb FA signing. Someone lie to JR and tell him he's 3.25m over the cap and only needs to move 1 player!

Um all of them? Or do we have a 4 million dollar Erik Gudbranson sitting on our third pairing?To be honest, I don't think JR is going to do something stupid on July 1st. All of his moves since November have all had the same focus: getting younger and/or faster. I think he only signs a speedy and younger UFA if he signs anyone, someone like Tanev.

I think it will be telling as to what his future plans may be too. If he signs someone like a third line guy, I think that kind of seals the fate of a Simon or possibly Rust. I could see either one being swapped with a dman.
If Carolina misses the mark on a few, wonder a TVR / Rust swap would interest them. They get a good solid, speedy forward and they make room for Fleury, Bean, etc. Salaries aren't really an issue either. Gives us just a touch more.

TVR-Schultz
Pettersson-Gudbranson
or swap TVR/MP. Pretty decent defense there if you ask me. Then the idea would be JR sign Tanev or Danskoi on July 1st. Then package Simon+JJ for something. Would have suggested Ceci but...

Anders Lee is going to be the next Okposo, Ladd, Clarkson, etc. He's going to get a super bloated contact that the team will instantly regret.
Him and Ferland should be at the top of the list of "NO!"
Clearly you're unaware that JR's favorite song includes the lyrics 'can't help myself' . . .
How much does Lee want? Any number revealed?
I am very worried about our plan for that cap space.
Honestly I would be calling Minnesota right now and seeing if they want to swap Zucker for Galchenyuk.
TVR is a RD...
Gross. But probably. Hopefully we don't trade JJ til all the big ticket UFAs are signed.I imagine it will be 6x6 at the very least. Something regrettable no doubt.

I would be very cool with adding Tanev.

Well, 6 is new 4 right now. Term is a bit too long for sure.I imagine it will be 6x6 at the very least. Something regrettable no doubt.
