Agreed on your first point. NYR really isn't in desperate need to move Staal's contract. Plenty of cap space and very few players due massive upgrades. However, care to explain why anyone is taking on Brenden Smith's cap hit for a 4th or 5th round pick?
Deslaurier's isn't getting moved. He's been very good for us and is a character type player we need more of.
Assuming BOS stays where they are now (I don't see TB beating them), that is correct.
$2 million on Grant is a little steep for me, but I'd go up to $1.5M. He doesn't do much wrong. The 12-15 goals is just a bonus.
NYR needs to pay DeAngelo, rn they have

I mean, they aren't necessarily desperate, but they have roughly 20 mil (in this ACGM) to sign ADA (at least 6 with the MP contract at 5 or whatever I'd have to assume) Georgiev probably close to three, Strome at least 3.1, likely more (4ish) that leaves 7 to sign a few players to fill out the roster, it'd be tightish, they were the best team I could find that actually has short term bad contracts, and would be willing to pay to move them, especially bc they're NYR... they're gonna want to sign someone big in FA lol... eveyone else with bad contracts has cap space now lol, agree on the second point
I just don't really know where Deslauriers fits... maybe instead of Jones, but i doubt the, i mean we can keep him and move someone else if needed though, irdc
yeah, and idk why, but I could see Grant taking a small discount to come back to ANA
