Somebody seriously needs to check Vegas’s cap… 8 mil. 
 

2 first and heavy salary retention… 

With the current rules, that’s brilliant by Vegas. He won’t play til the playoffs and is on LTIR, so won’t impact their cap space this season at all.

Tough trade season from my perspective. I was a big proponent of bringing in Michael Bunting and I was hoping he'd make enough of an impact that he'd stick around for a couple years. He would have likely matched last year's total of 49 points, but he was a -15 this year. Anyway, wish him the best in Pittsburgh and thanks for the hard work and contributions.

Never found a solid, comfortable spot on any of the lines RBA moved him to. But when he and Noesen were on the ice together, there was plenty of sandpaper to go around.

It'll take me a minute to get used to Guentzel and Kuznetsov. Not a Pittsburgh fan and I strongly dislike everything Washington- NFL, MLB, NHL

Not sure how it's relevant seeing as we pull for the Carolina Hurricanes 😉

I’m disappointed about Bunting, as Rod said he was just really starting to find his way in our system, I think next year he would have excelled. He obviously signed here for a cup chance so I feel for that part too. 

If Guentzel walks I’m be pretty perturbed.

Maybe Bunting can sign back with us next year.

After a few more thoughts.

I actually think I’d go:

Guentzel - Aho - Necas

Svechnikov - Kuznetsov - Teravainen

Martinook - Staal - Jarvis

Noesen - Drury - Fast

Kotkaniemi

Lemieux

Slavin - Burns

Skjei - Pesce

Orlov - Chatfield

DeAngelo

Andersen

Kochetkov

Martin

Raanta (Wolves)

I could see that working. Aho QB’s blue line plays anyways.

Guentzel still on IR?

Yep. Had the same oblique injury as svech did earlier in the season, per Donny Wads. He’s close but said they also don’t want to rush him back dunno if he’ll slot in before the rags and panthers next week. Could be next week, Could be 2 or three the way Don talked at the presser yesterday.

Three weeks means he wouldn’t be back until April… he’d only get seven regular season games before the playoffs.

If that’s really the case then we better win the Cup. Acquiring Guentzel for a handful of regular season games and a second round exit would be a disaster.

    • I don't really care as much about athleticism and arm strength.  While Murray might be better in that regard, I think Bryce has enough of both to do well in the NFL. The main reason this trade reference is silly is the money and the fact that Murray has been around a long while and hasn't proven that he can perform consistently when the game is on the line.  Bryce has shown that he can play well in the clutch (in the few opportunities he has had).  
    • If Bryce can continue the level of play he showed after the benching, then there's a good shot we at least compete to win the division. Tampa is a solid team but even last year in our week division they went 10-7 and will be on their 4th OC in as many years. The Saints are a mess and are in a mist of a half rebuild half still trying to compete mode and will probably be starting a rookie QB. The Falcons are a wild card as they have a really good offense but are we really crowning Michael Penix as a franchise QB after just 3 games?  The only thing I want out of this season is for Bryce to come out and without a shadow of a doubt prove he's our franchise QB. If that happens then most of the fanbase would be happy and I believe we'd be in a good place record wise at the end of the season. Maybe falling just short of winning the division with a chance to sneak in as a wild card team.
