Petey isn’t going anywhere… if Petey accepts, Canucks will move out money anyway they can to match.

If they do this, they better win the cup year one, because then the cap catches up hard. One year contender and then a dud.

The Sharks trade is really weird. Why not keep Kaako if you're going to put Hertl as RW?

And Canucks match

Haha easy Rangers decline on the Hertl deal.

Yes. Also this contract would be way to heavy. How do they sign Lafranière for 2023/2024 and the years beyond? They shouldn't create a core situation like Toronto did.

The Rangers are fine - I love this young talented group, plus the great 5. A big disappointment that they missed the playoffs. Not gonna happen next season.

You traded Georgiev because of potential loss to the Kraken in the expansion draft?

The deal is good for SJ but not for NYR. Sharks are likely to re-sign Hertl long term.

I don’t mind this. Depends on both teams evaluation of Kakko I guess. I don’t love him but he’s still got a good chance of being good

That’s a confusing trade lol

Georgiev is protected and Shesty is exempt while Kinkaid is exposed. Not really sure why all of these moves are made. The team looks nice for year 1 but bonuses and RFAs over the years will screw us so I don’t know
