factually untrue
you want to zing me so bad you ignore facts

I said bread REDUCED TO 6 PER
add elc Berard = ,7

I originally had nemec elc, but take that out
yes Sil's rights have zero cap hit

BUT I ALSO SAID ADD ACCEPTABLE CAP DUMP
try not to cherry pick
You missed the point. NJ’s only dump would be Palat who has a NMC until the season ends. So there is no acceptable cap dump and NJ can’t fit Panarin at 50% off.

Panarin is a great player but aside from the likelihood that the Rangers wouldn’t send Panarin away this season for a futures deal effectively hamstringing themselves for next season it’s going to have to be on a different team to start a rebuild for the Rangers.

Bastian and Tatar for the most part, assuming Lasar comes back after Christmas. I don't think they'll be the scratch all the time though just more often than not. Unless of course they trade 1 of them as salary going back.
Probably can't make 2 moves even with retention without something on balance sheet going the other wat

I don't know da bold, and also, you tellin me you can't do Haula + to get 6m cap, assuming it had to be 111% equal both ways?

Maybe in the abstract but NJ can’t run so many wingers and needs someone to play almost 20 minutes at center behind Hischier and Hughes. It’s creating another hole to add a luxury at an exhorbitant price. Just not good team building.

Yep, that's why I mentioned the piece about either Tatar or Bastian going away for cap purposes. I'd prefer it be MacDermid but it's unlikely anyone would take his contract.

You don't need to move guys making under the burial amount. If it was that bad they can be waived and sent to the AHL. MacDermid hasn't seemed to hurt NJ in the general sense this season. He's not great when he's not fighting but they've managed to largely overcome his lack of ability in games he's played.

I guess you could waive them if need be, MacDermid hasn't hurt them but he's a waste of a roster spot.

I think MacDermid is a necessary evil. A few teams still have a super heavyweight and you need to keep one around. Ideally it's a young player you can move to the AHL when you don't need him but Fitzgerald likes MacDermid and I think Fitzgerald is stuck in the 80s or 90s for his NHL viewpoint.

Until Mungo plays for NYRs
But Dillion seems like he could go there. Honestly Kotter Johnny Kov too and Noeson just crazy enough to try
Haven't seen much that's too scary from Rempe, at least not in any of his fights. Pretty sure most of the guys you mentioned could hang in there with him. All they really need to do is not get the shit kicked out of them.

I'll be happier once he's waived and they have that roster flexibility with being able to send him to the AHL when he's not needed.

Gotta disagree Fitz changed this roster from soft to a team that can play and match up physically with other teams in one offseason and there is always a place for an enforcer....We got rag dolled and our players got hit a lot after tge whistle that has decreased and when it happens there is now a response given to it unlike last year....

Been no way should NJ part with either Nemec or Silayev for Breadman....If we were to trade either it has to be for young cost controlled fwd not a guy who will be toast in a couple of years...I wouldn't trade Silayev nor Nemec ...Next guy out should be Hamilton in a year or two bring up the young guns then....

A contract similar to when devils traded Coleman to Tampa would make the most sense. Not sure how many of those there are out there that are available
