<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Knuckl3s</b></div><div>Pettersson just isn't that good, and Buchnevich shouldn't get that much term on his next deal. Common sense really</div></div>

It's not abnormal for a guy that needs to be persuaded to stay with the team to take a contract to age 38. He's definitely earned that money at this point, not to mention what he may get done the next couple years. Pettersson is very reliable and this is about what he should ask for from a non-playoff team two years from now with the cap going up. Like I noted though, he's not my #1 and maybe not even top-5 pick, but I'm just trying to be realistic with options. If I just go and sign Chychrun or Theodore, I'm gonna get angry responses saying "nah they're not going anywhere".

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>tstrauss16</b></div><div>I think Chychrun of that group would be the most likely. Really depends what happens in Ottawa. Even so, our prospect pool is currently ranked like 15-18 so it’ll only get better as we retool for the next 2-3 years. Really hoping for a late 1st round pick from Vrana. Maybe even move Parayko for a 1st round pick next summer.</div></div>

I’d love to just part ways with Parayko for a 1st, but I think that moving on from him pushes us further into a real rebuild rather than a short-term retool. We can’t really do anything without a Parayko replacement in place.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Knuckl3s</b></div><div>LMAO, those Pettersson and Buchnevich contracts</div></div>

Either you don’t pay attention to hockey at all, or you don’t realize this is two years from now with the cap going up ~$8M.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>tstrauss16</b></div><div>Good job. If we are moving Krug in 2024, we can try and get Skjei. I think he’ll walk from Carolina and be a decent free agent target. I’d rather not spend $5.5M AAV on Pettersson. I think you’re right about Dvorsky and Snuggerud. I’d like to start rounding out our defensive pool. I think our goal for this retool should be structured around the Thomas and Kyrou deal. Years 1-3: Finish probably out of the playoffs somewhere in the 8-12 range. Years 4-5: Just missing or making wild card. Years 6-8: Hopefully can be in a 3 year competitive window. By the end of that, Buchnevich is 36 (probably retired), Kyrou is 33, Thomas is 31/32, Neighbours is 29, Bolduc and Dean are 28, and Dvorsky is 27. I’d like to make a splash and grab Keller to bring him home during that cup window in 2028-29, Keller would be 32/33 probably with some term left too. Very well can continue the cup window past Thomas and Kyrou, especially if we are gaining Top 10 talent in the next 3 drafts. Gotta be patient, but the future can be bright.</div></div>

It would be nice to get our top pairing LD next summer, but I'm not sure how enticing our trajectory will look to top FA targets at the time, that's why I went with a '25 addition. I was looking at guys like Chychrun/Theodore/Slavin etc but I just don't think that's realistic.
