Not sure they could fit Weegar's $6.25 m caphit if they intend to sign Debrincat and an inexpensive 2nd goalie (to around $2 m ish). This is based on several (numerous) player/salary breakdowns that were posted in here.
Yeah, Weegar even without getting an inexpensive second goalie likely means DeBrincat is gone.
Yes, next year's $83.5 m cap ceiling will be much tighter for the Senators than some seem to recognize. That assumes the cap hit will remain at the $83.5 m level per the last news. On that subject, the TDL is getting close so you'd think they will need to make a final decision (and announcement) soon.
So, I was trying to find when the cap is traditionally set, as the pandemic has completely blown my sense of time.
Yes , it’s usually at the BOG meetings in June. Other then the “it’s trending” this way periodic updates.
Agreed, he'll get some games to finish the year but likely play in the AHL next season,
I dont beleive we can either. But we are interested. If we get a decent right sided play I should have said
That's what I thought, but some were talking about teams needing to know what it's going to be to make decisions at the trade deadline.
I think we need to see how this Bally sports plays out, for the cap.
I know you are a guy that likes size, but Brannstrom is 23 and whenever he gets an opportunity to play more minutes for a bit of a stretch, he looks good doing it. He also looked quite good running pp1 last year while Chabot was out.
Larsson only played 11.
Ah, I must have been looking at 5v5, my bad,
Thanks guys. I'm surprised it's that late given the potential impact for teams making moves at the TDL. But, it is what it is I suppose. In the past, maybe they have waited that long so that they can get a full season of revenue (ticket sale) numbers?
I doubt that happens, as Branny is not the best when on his backhand. Fine on his forehand.
