GDT: FA Frenzy time ladies and gents (for everyone else that is)

[SlavinAway]

CapFriendly has Tampa at almost $6.5m over the cap right now.

 

[Brock Anton]

That's like $65 million on 8 players.

They’re betting on the cap going up huge in the next couple years.

 

[Borsig]

That's like $65 million on 8 players.

Well If those 8 players are elite, and score 80 percent of your goals.....

 

[Svechhammer]

So…Hadyn Fleury back for $1M, get Bear around $2M-$2.4M and rock:

Slavin-Burns
Skjei-Pesce
Fleury-Bear
Gardiner (?)-Chatfield

If they did that, the fangirls would orgasm all over twitter and we'd have one heck of a mess to clean

Did someone touch on the Laine rumors from Mackenzie? Sorry if I missed it earlier, I bet the Canes are all over that if he’s truly available.

 

[DaveG]

If we don't have a replacement/upgrade lined up this is f***ing stupid.

If we do this is a f***ing coup.

Only question is which pick is which year. Hoping the 2nd is this years with Trikozov still on the board.

So yeah, they had a plan from the looks of it.

TDA, Lorentz, and Makiniemi essentially became Burns, Forsmark (4th), and a 2024 2nd from the Flyers.

One of our fans asked who is Brent Burns on Twitter

they have LTIR space to fill. 400k i think.

 

[FreshSeabass]

 

[DaveG]

Tampa, not content with f***ing their cap in the short term, is apparently hell bent on f***ing it long term, too

They'll just take turns sitting out the regular season with "season ending" injuries again just to be back for the playoffs.

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

Uhhhh that Sergachev contract... WTF

 

[CandyCanes]

What's cap space is left? Marchment comes in around 3.75-4.5M I guess?

 

[Svechhammer]

I would think that it would cost Necas ++

However, Laine's offense is basically what we hope Necas can become.... so it is tempting

 

[Brock Anton]

… does he have that backwards?

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

14 million is our current cap hit.

 

[Borsig]

More like 3 mil.

I get the feeling we're keeping Necas.

 

[FreshSeabass]

he fixed it

… does he have that backwards?

pagnotta saying sound like NJ the front runner for JG

I do not want to trade Marty but Laine is one of the few players I would consider it for.

I was gonna say. $3.5M for Lemieux would be hilarious.

 

[hblueridgegal]

For those concerned...

 

[FreshSeabass]

 

[Wolfpuck]

For those concerned...

Plan the parade!

Multiple. Stanley. Cups.

Not much to go by. Jarmo has been like they'll get the contract done.

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

Jesus christ what a horrible contract. Wow.
