I can't see St. Louis moving Juraj Slafkofsky off the first line -- his further development depends on ice time.

Josh Anderson is unproductive enough on his good side. That's the spot for Alex Newhook due to Kirby Dach's abysmal faceoff skills.

Your buy-out list is wrong, and that's not my opinion, it's indisputable fact. For example, because you've used the 2023-2024 skeleton, you've missed the fact that Tanner Pearson is a UFA and doesn't have to be accounted for going forward. Same with Chris Wideman. (I stopped checking there.) Similarly, Ylonen and Barron are RFAs, so you wouldn't have to buy them out, you could just not tender them their Qualifying Offers -- but why wouldn't you, since there's still some hope for Ylonen and Barron already seems to have shown enough to keep. Finally, buying out Jake Evans is a no-go: he's a perfectly good bottom-6 center.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>corson</b></div><div>I'm Assuming you are a Flames fan, just a few quick questions.
I'm just wondering is Andersson available?
Are the Flames going to rebuild their team this offseason or just do a retool?
I'm assuming that if the Flames are retooling then Andersson wouldn't be available.
Would Andersson's player comparable be Shea Theodore? If not what would you say his comparable would be?
If the Flames are rebuilding and a team offered Lane Hutson, Justin Baron, Winnipeg's 2024 1st and the Flames 2025 1st. Would that offer be more in the ballpark to get Andersson?</div></div>

So in order

1. No he's not available for anything less than a big overpayment (more than what Chychrun got). We only have 1 other legitimate top 4 defenseman signed for next season

2. A bit of both. LA/Dallas style rebuild. They won't tear it down to the ground because they can't. Guys like Coronato, Zary, Pelletier, and Wolf are NHL now. On top of that Kadri and Huberdeau are pretty much unmovable contracts and the team needs to at least try to compete before age makes them useless.

3. Theodore is a solid comparable, he's an offensive defenseman that is serviceable defensively. He hasn't had a great season though since apparently he's still recovering from the car crash last year.

4. Montreal is almost certainly getting the Florida 1st in 2025 so I'm really not sure that offer is better

I don't think Andersson is available, he seems to like it here and I think he will be our next captain. How ever if Montreal offered that I'd definitely take it.

Sujet: (MTL/WSH) - Edmundson for 2024 3rd (MIN), 2024 7th (WSH)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>corson</b></div><div>At the trade deadline a retention spot is usually worth a 3rd so this means that the Habs traded Eddy for a 7th.
I think he is worth more than a 7th if he is recovered from his back injury.
So this is a loss for Montreal
But I understand why they did it --- they wanted to open a spot in the line-up for Xhekaj</div></div>

The difference being is that Mtl can move on with their new leadership group and didn’t need to pay to do it. I I saw a lot of ACGMs with a 4th or 5th to move on from Eddy which was also my argument that being a broker for said retained money was the same. A 3rd is best case scenario for salary retention. You take that and move on with a clean slate. There is no loss for Hughes and the Habs here. Eddy wasn’t this terrible hockey player because of his injury issues he was an unknown commodity and the Habs need to start moving bodies just like the Preds have done except Hughes actually got assets back here. Hoffman/Armia must be next.,
