Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

Barrett Hayton hasn't been given a qualifying offer, thus why I had to create him, CapFriendly hasn't updated that just yet. Oddly enough Brannstrom and Lunqvist have been updated. I know the idea of signing both looks a little odd but hear me out.

Now that you have 8 dmen to run with you can get creative with that bottom pair, if you need size run wotherspoon-peeke, need more offense brannstrom-lundqvist. I think brannstrom would be a perfect fit for the Bruins as a transition D and I've always been high on lundqvist.

Now for hayton. I noticed he wasn't given a QO so I thought he'd be an interesting project. You could flip him and zacha in the lines to see what the better fit would be. I've come around to the idea of coyle in the wing only if poitras is up the middle as you could also split time between those two at the C2 spot so poitras can get reps at center and give him some added positional experience on the RW2.
I think as I have it, the 3rd line would be super annoying and be sneaky in the points. That bottom 6 is pretty interchangeable for me besides the LW3 and RW3 spots. Zacha,Hayton - C3 - Frederic would have to be the third line for me, I believe theres too much talent there to have any one of those guys on the 4th line.
My concern is the contracts I've given, I'd like some feedback on how close the money is to what's probably likely.

Lastly I have Bussi in the AHL, this is under the assumption he loses out to Korpi in camp.
