Canadian's only. Best roster possible cap compliant was the goal. Skilled top 6, gritty bottom six, solid D, good goaltending tandem. Woulda took guys like Price and Mcdavid but too expensive for this project.
How do you make a roster of Canadian players and not start with the best player in the world?
Like I explained. 12 million dollars. I'd rather have Mackinnon AND Scheifle for 12 than just Mcdavid. If the salary cap didn't exist, obviously. But The premise was best team possible CAP COMPLIANT.
