This is a mess lol.

Stars will have no need, roster, or cap space for ekholm in two years. And they definitely wouldn't give up a first rounder for him

This is interesting, Ry-Jo would be a good fit, but he underperforms in the playoffs and will likely not repeat last season. It'll come down to what Byram and Newhook's next deals are and if that leaves space for his 4m hit.
Edit: didn't notice the 24-25 part. I take it back

This is also for 2024-2025. Hard to say what the Avs will look like then, but I’m probably not paying that much for 1 season of 32 year old Johansen half retained.

Absolutely not.

That’s way too much for a goalie that’s not elite. Even if they were elite that’s probably too much. No
Goalie is worth 2 1sts back to back imo.

Did not notice that

ngl, this roster kinda sucks. Hate most of those trades for NSH

did i have a stroke

I don't agree with the trade either, but HUUUUHHHHH?

Saying Saros isn't elite should be a criminal offence. Dude's a vezina candidate every year as well as only making 5m. His only knock is this season, which is the result of the preds just collapsing in front of him. Hell, the preds literally make it to the playoffs BECAUSE of Saros. Put more respect on his name
