Core 4 No More: The Motherfucking Off-Season Thread

Knies --- Matthews --- Domi
Pacioretty --- Nylander --- Marner
McMann --- Tavares --- Robertson
Dewar --- Holmberg --- Lorentz
A.Nylander
(Cowan --- Minten --- Grebenkin)

Rielly --- Tanev
OEL --- McCabe
Benoit --- Liljegren
Hakanpaa
(Webber --- Niemela)

Woll
Stolarz
(Murray/Hildeby)
Kampf + Jarnkrok + Reaves + Timmins traded

Would have $2-3m in capspace, plus the caphit of whichever roster slot there you're replacing in the trade.
 
Having $2-3mill in cap space is worth like $9-$10 at the deadline. No point in spending $6 mill on the 4th line if you can spend $3.

I hate that their strategy is always to be capped out from day one.

Why accrue cap space when you can fire all of your draft picks out of a canon for double & triple retention at the deadline?

Draft schmaft!
 
Big changes in the practice groups today.

Group 1 is now clearly the actual team, with all the healthy regulars.

Key bubble names that have moved to Group 2: Cowan, Grebenkin, A.Nylander

Key injured names that are still in Group 3: Dewar, Hakanpaa

Group 1 is a 24 man squad:

Matthews
Marner
Knies

Nylander
Domi
 Jarnkrok

Tavares
McMann
Pacioretty

Kampf
Robertson
Holmberg

Lorentz
Reaves



Rielly
Tanev

McCabe
OEL

Liljegren
Benoit

Rifai
Timmins


Woll
Stolarz




Can't say i'm upset that Cowan Grebenkin A.Nylander are on the outside looking in at this point. They have to be way better to have an argument to make the team.

Still lots of competition for spots here - i think that Group A is over the cap even if Rifai js dropped. And then Dewar and Hakanpaa have to fit into that team soon.

I assume you meant 'now' rather than 'not...

still looking like a logjam at the bottom of the roster... gotta think a trade is coming...
