Keep some of the core guys he knows, likes, and are decent. These guys wanted to be here obviously. Ok you let them walk, then what? Who replaces 25 goal + Brock who signed for the same expired contract essentially based off of cap to team cap %. Garland isn't simply just a guy who give 100% all the time that you can find for cheap, he offers way more than that. Demko is the only one where you can debate ok do we run it back with him or not? 2 goalies? What about Silovs? crowded crease you can only pick 2.

Although Petey was injured, I wouldn't be surprised if he was slightly playing that way out of spite against JT and Tocchet. Hoping for 90 from him this season.

So they going to put Boeser and EP40 on the first line?
I don't think EP40 and Boeser have the same chemistry as Miller and Boeser.

Pius Suter goes to St Louis for 2 x $4mil
Unless we can trade for a center, we're going to really miss him in the lineup

I really liked the guys details… not in the Loui Eriksson kinda way either…
He did shoot an unrepeatable 18% this last season though, I expect he will tail off considerably unless St Louis can pull another Dylan Halloway out of their ass.

Raty, Sasson, Bains, and Karlsson were all given contracts, but they're 4th line guys. at best maybe get a sniff at 3rd line.

Yeah that's probably his ceiling though. This team is still in dire need of a legitimate 2C. Rumours are the Canucks are looking to move Blueger and Joshua to make room. I can see them trying to ship out Hoglander for the same reason.

I really hope not. Joshua has an upside. His play was disrupted by cancer, but the latter half of the season, he found his stride. Having him and Kane would make the team a bit harder to play against, especially given the small players we have.
I believe in Hoglander, Toch just kept putting him in the doghouse.
I'd rather the package include Chytil, Mancini, or O'Connor

I think the initial plan was to move those two in order to re-sign Suter. But he's gone so plans will have to change again.

Speaking of the cap I was surprised to see the Blues over the cap by over 2 million like just based off of memory I'm like who the fuck do they have that their team is over the cap *shrug*

Maybe it's just me not watching hockey much anymore so my knowledge is shit now but over the cap and not a single actual star on your team like who you paying?

^ you mean LA Kings ...Holland really hacked up a good roster. Good thing might be that it's easier to grab the Pacific Div #2 spot, and maybe the 8th slot.

Ehlers signs with Carolina. Six years for 51 million.

Lol, 5 teams called to see if Fleury would come out of retirement to play for their team.
My guess is Oilers, Oilers, Oilers, Oilers, and Oilers.
