If we keep signing guys, I'm not sure where they'd all play unless we make a couple trades.

The direction in which this team is going is still a mystery, and if anything, that's my complaint of the offseason

Brett Connolly signs a 1 year with Washington for $850,000.
If players still want to sign here, I would look at it as top-grading. You let them compete in camp and only keep the guys who performed the best. The rest get waived.

I'd think they would have totally fair training camp and the ones who did not make the team would be demoted...
Well anyway they should still sign them just so they have too many player to sign anyone else.

This.
I'm mostly upset the big changes have not occurred yet but glad they are not giving players away. I really wish AV was fired.

The hold up on Russell is if clubs like @CanadiensMTL @MapleLeafs @VanCanucks go 6 yrs on ballpark 5m aav. #SigningSeason
Nobody (rightfully) wants to acknowledge this but we could go into next year with the same damn core with nothing changed. It's actually pretty likely.

Kris Russell making literally anything over 2 mill is a fireable offense imo.
Yeah but it leaves zero room for rookies, and unless you're getting all of these guys for under $950k, you're carrying cap from their contract while they skate in the minors.

Well then the biggest "acquisition" would be a healthy and productive Nash and Stepan.
Well, that would be the plan, yes. Gerbe is already under that number.
And what rookies? Buchnevich and Hrivik are our only two real possiblity, and if Buch can't beat out a player like Grabner, he needs some AHL time anyway.
