RIP, Jimmy.
I also worry about Chytil breaking after he blocks his first slapshot on the PK.

I'm guessing the money he wanted wasn't there.
All the teams are up against the cap except for the really bad team. Devs and islanders maybe. So now crawling back to Avs hoping to salvage a good contract.

Vince has a new podcast. He discussed Kakko's contract. 2 year bridge. $2M-$2.5M. He brought up Chytil who is at $2.3M as a comparison. The Rangers are planning to carry 22 players on the roster. It doesn't leave much space. No Motte. Gauthier is being shopped for a late round pick. Drury may look to bring a vet D as a depth guy.

Wonder if they attach a first rounder with Johnson to clear the cap, 1 year 6 million left, can be traded to 19 teams.

do you trust Gallant to actually play him on the 4th line ? Or is Blais going straight to that 2nd line RW?
Going to alienate Kravtsov right off the bat instead of trying to recoup value off the asset that should have never tanked in the beginning

I'm really worried about Laf getting on PP1 and now. I can see whats going to happen before it happens.
Trocheck PP1; Laf and Kakko can't crack PP1 3 and 4 years in respectively, goodbye young talent
Blais going to get the second line RW over Kakko and Kravtsov
Kravtsov goes on 4th line
Also playing Cuylle and 50 goal scorer Othmann on the 4th line is peak Rongos and would be repeating past mistakes - COUGH Howden COUGH LIAS ..... Keep them as far away from this team as possible until there are legit spots for them.
The taste Gallant left in my mouth was bad by the end of last year, outcoached in every series and questionable personnel decisions. Dont forget, he still refused to give a reasonable answer for the whole Strome Kakko fiasco.
This is my nightmare.

Girard is at $5M. They don't really need him with Bowen Bryam coming back from his injury and having a good playoff. Girard has five more seasons left. Won't be easy. Maybe they could move him.

Those charts also showed Nemeth was a good player. Some people use them as gospel though.

Blais is probably slotted into our top 9 regardless. Either him or Goodrow.

Move Panarin+Goodrow over Kreider+Trouba. I suspect Drury’s mindset will be the same
Trocheck is almost certainly going to slide into Strome's spot on PP1 but for how long I don't know. He played the Kreider role on Carolina's PP and that isn't happening here.
Even if Blais goes in RW2 (which funny enough, I don't think is the WORST idea I've ever heard. I wouldn't do it, but you put 2 people who can shoot and dig on a line with Panarin since he won't do either), I don't think it automatically pushes Krav to L4.
If anything, all it does is Push Krav to RW1 and keep the Laf-Chytil-Kakko trio together or if Laf ends up playing 1RW, Krav can slide into 3LW.

Either Blais or Goodrow is our 9th best forward including Kravtsov

No relation to Sergei, Joe
Yes they were teammates briefly, but Carpenter was horrible in Vegas. Hate to be that guy, but I watched him play game in/game out long enough to know he doesn't add much of anything to the lineup. He is literally the McKegg replacement...hopefully he doesn't see much time here.

the only issue I have with having this many players... is that Gallant will go the vet route or choose the players he 'knows' better... compared to actually playing the 'best talent'.

He has limited options. The worst he could do is put Goodrow and Blais both in the top 9. Which would absolutely be a Gallant thing to do.
