Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

I think if Kaprizov is hell bent on hitting UFA and getting paid, it should be another team's problem. Keep Fiala if he's willing to sign long term still, you still need good players after the rebuild is over.

I chose these three teams because it feels like they're all ready to be done rebuilding, and would value these specific pieces for various reasons. I recognize fans of these teams probably aren't going to be happy with the returns they're giving up.

From the Wild point of view, this team's going to suck a lot this year, maybe getting us into Wright/Savoie/Lambert territory, maybe not, but definitely getting us a great prospect, along with several other 1sts over the next couple of years to keep building a strong prospect pool the way LA and Ottawa have done.

You would have a significant pool of prospects to build around, and could move some for other areas of need when the time comes. Adding Turcotte and Mercer to Boldy, Rossi, Lambos and Wallstedt would give you incredible depth, and that's before you have five more 1sts and three more 2nds in two years.

Finally, a disclaimer, none of this is realistic and I know that. Beyond the values I'm going to get flamed for, it's pretty much a given that we're not going to be going full scorched earth here, and I understand why.
