Sujet: If the allegations are false Kane is still tradeable
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JumboFett</b></div><div>I do not believe for one second that DW will opt to buy Kane out. Much better to bury him in the minors without any ice time until the right trade offer emerges.</div></div>

Bury a guy in the minors and don't play him? All that does is decrease his already low (to non-existent) value. Kane needs to put a huge season in the NHL to show he's worth his paycheck (and baggage).

Kane's Modified NTC: Player submits a list of 3 teams he can be traded to. I can think of at least 3 teams that don't have the cap for the $7m x 4 deal he has left. I can think of at least 3 other teams that wouldn't touch him for any free. He'll get paid the same amount to do nothing in the ECHL and he will to play in the NHL; which to be fair is almost nothing due to his debt issues.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JumboFett</b></div><div>All y'all, please wake the eff up... If this offseason has taught us anything it's that EVERYONE is tradeable/signable, and GMs DO NOT CARE about locker room drama if the player produces (especially east coast GMs).

If Kane is still employed by the NHL in September then there will be a GM willing to take him and his 30 goals/szn on. Bergevin has proven to be just as deplorable, and in desperate need of a 1st line LW, so Kane will be in good company in MTL.</div></div>

Employable yes, if innocent. Tradeable with his contract and baggage, nope. He'd be a guy someone would take a chance on for well below his market value as a UFA contract.

Look at DeAngelo. $1m is well below what he's worth strictly as a player. His baggage tanked his value and earnings.

Sujet: Lets make lines
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>EccE</b></div><div>Knowing Evason, he'll probably torture Kaprizov more with Rask and the lines look a lot like last year's:

Kaprizov-Rask-Zuccarello
Greenway-JEEK-Foligno
Fiala-Gaudreau-Hartman
up-for-grabs-Sturm-Bjugstad

Brodin-Dumba
Goligoski-Spurgeon
Kulikov-Merill
Addison

Talbot
Kähkönen</div></div>

I'm of the same mind with the centers. I think they'll try Greenway/Sturm/Foligno and Zucc/JEE/Kaprizov in camp and the first couple games of the year. Then abandon it sometime in the early season.

Addison over Merill for the d-corps. GMBG wants Addison to have a spot in the lineup and will give him no competition for to possible beat him out for it. It's rather a moot point though, this is an oft injured d-corps so whoever the 7D probably get 50+ games.

No they are not. It just creates another hole in the roster that needs to be filled.

$81.5m
-13.7m dead cap
-10m Eichel
-$19m Brodin, JEE, Spurgeon
= 39m left and 16 roster spots
-$11m Foligno, Talbot, Hartman, Kukilov
= $28m left for 12 roster spots.
-$2m ELC Addison, Boldy
= $26m left for 10 spots.
-$6m Greenway, goalie KK raises
=$20m left for 8 spots.
These are basically locked in contracts that won't be moved.

Kaprizov hasn't been signed yet, and no point in getting Eichel if Kaprizov isn't here. So I'm going with $8m for him.

This leaves $12m (if Dumba and Zucc are dumped for no money coming back) to fill all these holes (not even including a pressbox guy or two players)
Boldy/Eichel/Kaprizov
Greenway/JEE/Foligno
???/???/???
???/???/Hartman

Brodin/Spurgeon
???/Addison
Kulikov/???

Talbot
goalie kk

cheap rates: a 3C is $3m, a 2nd pair d-man is $4m, low end 3rd line wings are $2m. I don't see any the rest of MN's prospects being ready to be more than roster fillers in a season. The cap just doesn't work to make a team that can compete for a Cup. If the team can't compete for a Cup then there is no reason to trade for Eichel. They can not compete for a Cup and keep their futures just as easily.
