Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

Trying to create realistic offseason scenario that gets us closer to contention. This version will feature the patient approach - how I think we should move. Rather than an aggressive approach where we make a big splash via trade. Keep all our prospects and draft capital and continue to build while increasing the competitive environment for them to grow and earn spots in. Makes it more crowded, but only in the short term and if someone pushes for a spot, have no problem scratching some older guys or trading the likes of Fabbri, Kubalik etc.

Miles Wood, Max Domi, Pius Suter, JVR and Bert are all guys I think we might take a look at signing as well to fill in some depth, leadership, and toughness positions. However, the guys I have acquired would be my preferred.

In my opinion, Mazur is going to earn a spot at training camp, or at the least, come onto the scene in a similar fashion to what Berrgren did last year.

Not spending any assets but still going out and making the team better in free agency. Harder to play against by a mile. Definitely don't think most of these UFAs cost this much nor that Yzerman would spend right up to the cap - but just to show that we can.

Through the draft we would ideally acquire 1. Best forward available 2. Best RD available (or Willander) 3. Another RD in the 2nd round
