Saad to Vegas

So let’s assume Saad put in a trade request at the beginning of the season or at some point. Why didn’t he play well enough that his contract would have been worth it to a contender? If he wanted Playoff hockey his performance here is a big reason we are not in the hunt anymore. 6 or more goals from him and who know we might have six more points.

Would be Interesting to find out if there was some other type of drama that prevented him from playing to his historical form other than the distraction of becoming a new father. I truly thought he would hang up the skates not chase a cup with Vegas. Since it is Vegas I can’t even wish him the best…grr.

I would be very surprised if this announcement is news to NHL teams, I would bet that they already had a pretty good idea of where the cap was heading
For sure, and I don't see how it really makes a difference. Sure, you'd be able to pay more for Rantanen, but guess what? You also have to pay more for Makar, and any other player on your roster that's not under contract today.
