Minor correction, Stone will be an RFA. EDIT ...Whoops, I am wrong! UFA.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Karlsson: Tampa
Stone: Stays in Ottawa
Seguin: Stays in Dallas
Panarin: NYR
Eberle: CHI
Duchene: SJ

 

[780il]

Stone: Stays in Ottawa

Seguin: Stays in Dallas or Colorado

Panarin: Chicago, LA

EK-Tampa probably
Stone-no clue. I’ll say Sens to be safe but I don’t think he stays
Seguin-Dallas
Eberle-Isles
Panarin-NYR
Duchene-Sharks

Eberle seems like someone Holland would have a hard on for

 

[HolyCrap]

Not sure about the others but unless Ottawa sells team to a new owner all their UFA’s will be gone. At least I’d be surprised if they stay.

ellis?

Detroit's set up pretty nicely with forwards. I see Holland gunning for Ryan Ellis.

Karlsson: Vegas/Tampa
Stone: Nashville
Seguin: Dallas
Panarin: Chicago
Eberle: Dallas
Duchene: NYR

Realistically I can't see Chicago grabbing Panarin without finding somebody to take Seabrook's contract. That's gonna be a high price.

Congrats on being the 800th user who doesnt know Chicago's cap situation. Seabrook doesnt have to be moved for Panarin.

I think they'll figure out a way to make it work for a year, and then pray that the next CBA will have at least one amnesty buy-out. Although, that plan is predicated on the September 2019 opt-out being triggered the CBA expiring in summer of 2020.
