winter has come

Looks fine but I don’t understand the Beaulieu raise. He was scratched in Buffalo and in Winnipeg aswell. I like his game but he should be making less than he did last year on a 1/2 year term.

Just some small things, but I don't see us signing Stralman when we can just use Poolman, and Niku should be starting next year, so one of Chiarot/Beaulieu shouldn't be re-signed. Morrow should be resigned instead of one of those two to be depth. I also don't see us signing Chiasson when we can just use Appleton.

yea this is a bit complicated. He played well when Morrisey went down, the issue here is he is an rfa and all rfa's have to be offered give a qualifying offer of at least a 10% raise from there previous year, unless they don't offer him the qualifying offer which in point he becomes a UFA, then they try to re-sign him for less money but then other teams will have a crack at him too. So it is a bit of a gamble, Nathan is better then Kulikov so in that sense that is why I had that 10% qualifying offer to him

The Islanders aren't making that trade.
Really think expectations are gonna have to be lowered for the Trouba return, other GM'S know the situation and just aren't gonna be willing to offer that much.
Also should expect an unexpected player to be moved this summer but who? Buff? Ehlers? Scheiffele?

No way Scheifele goes.
