Sure would like to know why Boychuk would have Ottawa on his 8 team trade list.

So super big nitpick.... but why are you swapping 7ths in the boychuk trade? Just keep them out

Pulock gets 6x6 in arbitration, Barzal gets 8x3 or 9.5x8 imo, Cizikas is a huge part of the best fourth line in the league (Martin-Zeeker-Clutterbuck), and is a fantastic person and defensive player. Not a cap dump. Hickey won't play, he's just not good enough. Good candidate for a dump.

Ladd on LTIR, I have a feeling he'll get put on Robidas/Lupul Isle.

Don't trade Zeeker to sign a much worse player for $1.35 less.

There's more, but meh.

My computer hates capfriendly and I can't do a trade unless there's a value on both sides for some reason.

So why does Columbus want Cizikas in this scenario? He's a bottom-6 guy, and we've already got like 14 of those.
