Had a dream I was hanging out with aho and necas. We were talking about game of thrones. Me and aho did Robert Baratheon impressions. Then I tried to explain to them who Tim Allen was and that him and the king Robert actor were in home improvement. Except that was Richard karn not mark addy. Weird dream.

Some notes:
* Overall, I'm extremely happy with the roster. Managed to bring lots of elite talent to the organization (Bäckström, Kucherov and Holtby) while not giving up the most important prospects (except for Svechnikov). Depth was also impoved via free agency.
* Happy with the trades. Only one I'm not happy with now everything is said and done is Kruger trade, he could had been kept around. I just needed the cap space for Tavares back then.
* I think we can keep this band together for a long time. I projected Kucherov to get ~10.5M, Aho ~6.75-7M, Teräväinen ~5.5M and Williams to take ~3M per year multi year deal in future if he is kept around. Bäckström should be around 9M (especially if given term) and Holtby around 7-8.5M, depending on his next season numbers. Faulk might be the odd man out, we will see. This will require the cap roof to be ~85M at the summer of 2020.
