Welcome to CapFriendly!

I'm really impressed! This is by far the best initial effort I've seen on CF.

As my esteemed colleague <a href="/users/tryger" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@tryger</a> says, if the Kings are interested in Kessel (and RW is a weakness for us), then that's an entirely appropriate and acceptable package for him.

The Edmonton trade is right on value, but the Oilers can get rid of Neal simply by buying him out for $1,916,667 for each of the next four years and save the first-round draft pick. However, Kuemper is probably worth the first, so you should work on that kind of trade.

Minnesota adherents are fond of the Dumba-Schmaltz swap (straight up).

I've seen a lot of Boston posts lately speculating on an OEL-to-Beantown deal, some of which involved either DeBrusk or Vaakanainen. Despite the other comment, I think that the high retention would persuade Boston to take this offer.

Congratulations!

I get that certain users can be abrasive at times but it's not cool that you're openly 'sub-tweeting' about the guy on arguably the most popular thread at the moment. I'm not interested in handing out warnings/infractions over this, I think there's a good lesson to be learned here about remembering that we're all human. Every one of is is fallible. We all have biases, some worse than others. He - and everyone else here - has something to offer. Working with other users instead of using the anonymity of the internet to default to antagonistic at the first opportunity only helps us get better at this. It took me a while to quit being 100% snark and unwilling to adjust my opinions but I genuinely feel like I know more about the sport now that I have.

That said I do owe <a href="/users/smokingun71" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@smokingun71</a> an apology for being in an absolutely piss-poor mood regarding the Oilers over the past week. I didn't need to direct it at him or anyone else.

Peace boys.
