Can we do Strome for 6? 11.6 for 5 forwards and a backup goalie. blais 2m kakko 2.5 barron 925 ELC, Let’s say Cuylle 850 Backup goalie Kinkaid 800 and pray shesterkin can play 82 ~4.55 in cap space Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sod16 Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 This can't be considered a bargain, considering the pre-UFA eligible years that it covers, but it's certainly not a bad deal either. It's about where it should be. Looking at the amount of cap space left starting next year, it will be very difficult to fit in Strome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, firstly, offersheets don't generally happen, but secondly, Kakko hasn't done anything to deserve 5 million dollars. There's 10m+ available. I'm not gonna worry about who's getting what until the season's over. IMO, hopefully we do have a problem next year because it means Kakko was good.

(.36 ppg vs Kakko's .35ppg prior to this season) You have a GM out there that's still high on Kakko, thinks he'd do more in a bigger role. $5m for a 2nd overall pick? I think you'd have a lot of GMs interested. Rangers will never have the cap space to strike back, either.

Cash or Czech Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Cap is also scheduled to go up slightly next year, isn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have: Georgiev's $2,425,000 Hajek's $874,125 McKegg's $750,000 Gauthier's $775,000 ...and $1,000,000 in dead cap coming off the books (Hank's buyout). That's an extra $5,049,125 to add into what's going to be available for the remaining guys. Drury's gonna make this work, my man....it's the new math!

There's been a few lately and as Josh said. I think a lot of GM's would consider giving Kakko a 3x5m contract or something like that. And if someone does, Rangers are fucked, that was my point. If he deserves it or not is another question, but we see what Carolina did with Montreal re Kotkaniemi, same could happen here. We would essentially lose Kakko (a 2nd overall pick only 2 years ago) for a 1st and a 3rd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL Hate to break it to ya, but that's all factored in. Forwards signed through next season: Panarin, Kreider, Zib, Laf, Chytil, Goodrow, Hunt, Reaves (8) Defensemen signed: Trouba, Lindgren, Fox, Miller, Lundkvist, Nemeth, Tinordi (7) Goalies: Shesty (1) Money left: 7,3m Players needing contract: Strome, Kakko, Blais, (Gauthier, Rooney, McKegg). Also need a backup goalie. It's doable, but it will not be easy. Strome gonna have to take the biggest of discounts if he wants to stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he sucks this year, it might be the end of the road for him anyway. So let's wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
