I'd imagine most of those UFAs will get longer, better offers.

Those UFA offers are weak at best, and it all falls apart with your first trade, why would PHI want Petry?

Theres few teaMS that want a long term older RD, who plays offense first/defense second and has 6+mil in cap space for it. Theres far better younger UFA options for that money (Klingberg, Severson, Dumba, etc...).

But you really think that 10 new starters from outside the organization will be brought in?

carter contract is buyout proof. No point in buying it out. If its that bad stick him in the minors and save a mil

Got to think FLA is willing to give Gudas 3 if they're willing to give an asset up to pay Rutta 2.75. ,and if I'm offered 3 in FLA or Pittsburgh I'd probably stay in the place I'm comfortable and is a tax haven.

Unfortunately he has a full NMC - can't be moved to the minors

I have to ask what kind of hold Radko Gudas has on you lol

His 35+ contract doesn’t allow him to go to the minors.
