Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

Really hope they give Lavoie a cup of coffee before potential waivers/trade. Often they might go 11-7 anyway, so no need for a constant 4C, and Ryan ends up de facto C often anyway, taking so many draws. When 11-7, they can run Nuge/Drain/McD once in a while with Janmark and Lavoie, pretty good skill potential against soft competition. Sutter could get back to speed in Bakersfield, better than rushing back into things, even if he looks good somehow. And Pederson likely a safe waivers guy given his 2 year deal as first recall if Lavoie doesn't work out early on.
