the dylan strome trade is just weird, it wont happen. its RFA rights, if you were just to offer sheet him at 3.8m its a 2nd only, theres no reason to throw in more to trade for him, plus foegele to most teams is cap they dont want. its just strange. they will not trade tyson barrie to retain cap, that ruins the point of trading him away, they only trade him to clear cap especially if they add a pick in, hes a good 3rd pairing guy, just not for 4.5m. you are bit expensive on yamo and jesse. McLeods good as thats his QO, think you are little low on kulaks AAV.

If Strome signs a 4x3.7 offer sheet Chicago says thank you and matches.

thats fine, let them. the guy has been awful besides this past season, its alot to pay for a guy whose been good for 1/6 season

Kulak is not signing that low AVV without a serious long term offer. Every team would double that on the market. Did you forget the offers to Poolman and Forbort last offseason? I'd argue it starts at 2M AVV with a minimum 4 years

You are also low on Mcleod long term. 2 years you get that AVV not 4 years
