Yuck on the Bert and Big Z contracts. 😬

Bert isn't going to age well and I love Big Z's game but I wouldn't give him anything over 5 mil.

I realize teams will jack his price up and he may get 6 mil in Silly Season but that's too much in my opinion.

Rather sign Matt Roy for that.

Your guess is as good and mine what Yzerman will do at goalie? 🤔

I like the Trenin addition and Kalieyev could be worth a gamble.

I think Bergy gets ragdolled in the top 6. 😬

Minnesota accepts IMO.

Why yuck on Bert? 4 year deal put him at 33yo. That's about the time where his game might slow down and contract is over. Till then he should be good. Remember, his uncle played into late 30's and played reasonably well so 33 is about right I think. As for 5.5m... maybe it's 0.5mil too much but c'mon...too picky at this point.
Big Z I agree. it's silly season so hence 6mil but I think it's not gonna happen as reports are he wants a long 6-7 year deal at 7+ mil. Not sure he's gonna get that and I think he will settle for 6 mil but term I'm not so sure. He'll probably find someone who'd sign him for 6 years. 6x6 I think is what he's gonna end-up with but not here tho so you may as well change his name to Matt Roy at 4year at 6mil
Burgers needs to be with Kasper and ideally on 2nd line with Raymond this way they both get some physical protection. I just don't think "the genius" Lalonde is gonna start the season with Kasper and Burgers on the 2nd line.
Goalie...you're right. No clue on what Yzerman would do but I have a nasty feeling that SY will just stick with Husso the seeve. I think Guss is the best option as SY is not going for Ullmark or Saros. Hollowed are thy draft picks! They are not for trading to improve the team. No way. They are to be used for a crap shoot (draft at mid 1st and lower)
So he's not giving up those picks. Hence we're not getting an elite level goalie. After that Guss is the best option IMO as Gibby has too high cap hit and his numbers suck last couple of seasons. Not sure all can be blamed on crappy defense. I think he is slowing down too. Elvis is out of market. Tristan Jarry sucks the rest is scraping bottom of the barrel and not worth it. Did I miss anyone worth mentioning?

Well. I hope so. I took time to listen to their pundits and they all want cap space so they can sign top 6 LT wing. Mini has like 6mil not including 4-5 RFA's to sign. So that's what I gave them. Cap space. They should agree
