Glass won’t be on the 4th line... no need to have him waste his time there. Either he’ll play middle 6 minutes or he’ll be the 1st line center in the AHL next year.

Given the cap situation and how badly Vegas hosed a lot of teams during expansion, I can confidently say you aren't getting anything near that for Eakin. Maybe a 4th.

I'm very much not a fan of Glass playing 4th-line minutes, especially alongside Reaves. As a high-end skilled center, he won't develop with limited minutes or subpar linemates. Not a shot at either Pirri or Reaves, but neither should be NHL regulars. Good chance Haula gets moved too: solves the money issue and gives Glass a more optimal place to play in the lineup. Otherwise, Glass is going to be looking at a year in the AHL, and from everything I've heard about the kid, isn't where he should be playing next season.

I put Glass there as a filler, should have clarified that. It would probably be someone like Nosek or an FA, signed for around 800-900k.
Agreed he needs really good minutes, or to spend the year in the AHL. Him and Reaves together would be a waste.

Eakin did really well this year, but I'd probably move down to a 3rd now that I look at it. I simply said that based on the fact Boyle got a 2nd, but realized that Boyle was at TDL and got overpaid for.

Edited, thanks for the input!

Karlsson signs for 7+ mil guaranteed

Gusev will cost more $ as well
