SNOG 4-2 CAR

Jarvis, Aho, Roslovic, Gostisbehere

Celebrini, Toffoli
 
Canes are on a roll lately winning 7 straight and not allowing more than 2 goals in any of those games. At least it will be fun to see how Cagnoni looks in his first NHL game and hopefully he is able to make the PP look more dangerous. Crunch time as we are only 4 points ahead of Chicago with the same amount of games played!

Canes 5-1
Celebrini
Jarvis, Stankoven, Aho, Burns, Jankowski
 
We just need to LTIR Vlasic for the rest of the contract
I expect him to be either injured, "injured," or just waived. Maybe they buy him out to save some real money and a roster spot, but they might want his contract just to hit the cap floor at this point.

He will not technically go on LTIR (in our situation, that would be a disaster).

Nah, LTIR is for when they're needing to go over the cap due to injuries. If he's injured long term, he'll stay on IR until cap is needed like Couture is. I think I'd rather have him get healthy and buy him out in the offseason. I would much rather give his roster spot to Dickinson and/or Schaefer and just let the development fly.

If he is injured so to speak he doesn't take a roster spot and helps us to get to the cap floor

Vlasic will have an “injury” that would making buying him out impossible but he will also be “injured” enough to not block any other players.

He wouldn't but this injury doesn't sound like something that will reliably keep him out of the lineup. He's been dealing with it to a degree all year and he's been available for most of this season. I don't think the team needs Vlasic's sort of help to reach the floor unless he's definitively done.
