A team made up entirely of guys who will be UFAs at the end of this season. Salaries aren't what they will get, they are what they got this season. Couldn't run this exercise with a made up team and also view UFAs for 2020-21, not sure why.
DISCLAIMER: Yes, I am aware I have Galchenyuk and Ennis behind guys like Grant and Janmark in depth. That's because I like the look of that 4th line. Lines are whatever, D pairings are intentional.
Because they both are miles better than Gudas, Brodie is a top 3 defensmen Gudas is a bottom 2 defensmen
Brodie doesn't fit into this organization's plans though. Gudas' physicality and positioning plays off of Gustafsson's puck-moving play. We don't intend to sign Brodie at the age of 48 or whatever he is.
