Yeah, and I want to marry Taylor Swift. What Husso wants doesn't matter, because he's overpaid and no team wants him.

And then Yzerman will retent salary, and there's is suddenly a team who will want him for 2.375M pricetag.

Then the situation is like normal. Our starter Talbot will play for bargain, as well as Lyon.

Yzerman just does things to make caphits disappear.

Like Zadina, it didn't cost anything at all, othervise that 1.825M would be still be at our cap for next season.

Ed n seider might b fun experiment, run them half the game n let 2nd n 3rd mop up. maybe not be cup formula but perhaps POs

I mentioned it in a different thread, but that is what I would do. Just run Ed and Mo 30 minutes, because the rest of them are mediocre at best. I don't want to see Chiarot getting big minutes.

I didn't post lines because I think there will be some shuffling around before the season based on what works in practice and preseason. Burger and AlJo will be on the squad because of waivers, I don't think any of the other kids start in Detroit. Nate/Kasper/Mazur will have to light it up in GR to get promoted.

Yzerman has to do a "sell" job with Husso. He already stated that he will be ready.

But please keep putting out feelers. Get a GM to bite.

"Someone" is anyone. I don't want to pay Veleno.

Imo, after the RFA extensions:

- we have 1.7M of cap space
- Husso buyout would open 3.166M
- Määttä traded would open 2.225M (replacement player Lagesson in)
- Veleno as trade piece would open 1.6M for a forward.
--------------
Total ~8.7M in cap space.

Player who would fit in?

Leon Draisaitl.

Yzerman decides he forfeits all future trades and free agency negotiations and will vacation from the Stanely Cup final until training camp. Draper will draft the team and we will be happy.

One of those guys is still on the payroll. :help:
It was not a good idea to buy out Aby for couple of reasons , we were tanking so who cares, will still not done, it was supposed to be over 2 years ago. For 4 mil per, it was not so bad, not as bad as Copp or Holl contracts Yzerman did right after.
