Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

The non first round picks can be interchanged a bit.
Hertl is obviously the big acquisition and they would have to extend him AFTER they get him (otherwise SJ may ask for more).
The lines: #1 is purely offense
#2 is mostly offense with Gallagher's grit and skill in there
# 3 has plenty of offense for a third line plus Lehkonen's defensive responsibility, which will let the other guys take more risk
#4 some good defensive minded players and speed
Vlasic may only be a 7th defenseman, but could also mentor Romanov, who can make up for Vlasic's lack of foot speed. Hakanpaa is teh 6th or 7th D, unless Wideman gets injected from time to time to help teh power play.

I know Holtby has a lot of risk as a backup for Price (especially if Price gets hurt), but the Allen trade saves some cap space.

Who knows? Maybe at the trade deadline they bring back PK Subban when his cap hit is lower and NJ retains some money.

There is still $2,400,000.00 in cap space available.
