Hall and Mikko will play tonight for the Canes as well. 
 

The Canes will have 35-40m in cap space to fill out the team. Mikko wants 8x14m, give it to him. Let burns and Orlov walk and play nikishin and the younger guys on defense and/or make a smart signing in FA. 


go get a goalie and fill out the rest of the wingers with 10-12m in cap space. 

I have a feeling burns will be back on a one year deal   If he plays less minutes, I’m all for it.  Nikishin and Morrow will be up next year to replace Orlov and maybe Walker. 
 

Depending on how Freddie does in the playoffs, it will be him and koochie or someone else and koochie. 
 

we still need a center.  Badly. If that’s one of prospects, wonderful, if not, I fully expect them to go get a good one. $30 plus mill is a ton to work with. Esp when we already have a solid core. 
 

and yes, I fully expect moose to sign with us. We have the money. Pay him. Yo I don’t get top 6 to top 10 NHL players often. We now have one. Better than anyone on this team in including aho. Better than Guentzel. On par with prime Eric Staal. A true ELITE star.

They could put Mikko on the second line and run something like this and fix the center issue. 
 

Sevch - Aho - Blake

Hall - Mikko - Jarvis

Marty - Staal - Jaaska 

Robinson - KK - Roslovic

That’s four strong lines imo and Jost and Carrier coming back for the playoffs gives some movement wing wise.

I think we bring Burns back on a team friendly deal if he doesn't retire.

Definitely a possibility for sure, I was just saying that even if they give Mikko 14m AAV, they would have 9 forwards, 4 defenseman and 1 goalie with 26m in cap space left over. If Nikshin comes over like expected then that’s 5 defenseman plus a ton of youth that should be ready to come up.

I just hope we keep our farm system top tier with the new GM. It is such a nice thing to have guys constantly coming up and contributing.

Yeah, Rantanen is arguably a superstar level player, which we don't have.

It's not really arguable he's been Mckinnons Draisaitl.... top 5 in points the last five years, 55 goal season will probably have his fourth 40+ this year. 

 

He's a superstar he was PPG plus even with Mckinnon out.

 

We have that now.

 

This guy CAN SCORE

KK seems like an obvious option to move but he really has to start humming so we can sell high like we did with Necas. I love Necas but I don't think you will see him blossom into a consistent 100 point scorer like Rantanen is.

I think he has a shot of that in Colorados system him feeding Mcdavid he's gonna rack up assists. Rantanen is a pure goal scorer who can also distribute he won't get Rantanen numbers but I could see him putting up 30 50 with Colorado

Robinson and Roslovic are both UFAs after this season.

      Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"

      I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
