Some tips I'd give on my research, McLeod contract is too high with too my term for a player that has shown a step from the AHL to the big league this year, I'd give shorter bridge deal with contract between mid 1 million. Kulak isn't my type of veteran D nor is Miller to make this roster better, the perfect name I want is someone like Nick Leddy or trade/sign from the Islanders defence corps. Miller can be really good if he shoots the puck more and continues defensive development under Manson. Husso can be signed by everyone at that price so I see his contract near 5 million give or take. Barrie won't be something a team wants so it'll be a Marleau type deal but not involving 1st rounders going the other way unless an asset comes back. Kassian can't be traded unless key Assets go the other way like a 1st round pick. Foegle isn't special unless our 2nd rounder goes rather than 3rd for Fischer and a 4th or 5th rounder

Gonna cost a lot more to dump Kassian.

On anybody.

Columbus is not the place to dump forwards. They already have far more than they can play and Jarmo has never been a GM to take on a cap dump.

That’s a pretty good break down. With mcleod I just figured you could maybe steal a couple years on a good contract if he continues to take steps forward, slight overpay. I think you’re wrong about Barrie, I do believe there is definitely a market out there that the oilers could get a good return on but it’s about finding the right fit for him. Husso is a bit of a hope and prayer kind of contract lol. I’m a fan of both kulak and Miller so that’s where those come from. Kassian I’m probably out to lunch on but I can’t get a gauge on what a trade would look like and Foegele in comparison to Fischer has almost always had better numbers.
