[stevo61]

tough exercise right now, but the hope in Columbus is they add a true defensive defenseman at least on the backend, preferably a righty. Maybe a middle 6 forward and address the goaltending

 

[Coffee]

Can we split this into groups ? Give everyone two teams to do

You may do as you wish, whether it’s answering in depth for 1 team, a few teams, all teams, or just a sentence

 

[CaptainShark]

There will be UFA-signings, trades, buy-outs and at least one offer-sheet. Now after i did all the heavy lifting, the rest should be easy to fill out for you.

 

[VivaLasVegas]

Vegas Golden Knights will spend the summer golfing, just like the regular season.

 

[MrLunatik]

This is easy.

• May or may not trade Andersson
• May or may not sign a defenseman
• May or may not trade a forward
• They will sign a goalie, probably, I think
• They will sign some minor league players, probably, I think

 

[bringbacktheskate604]

Nucks
Will trade for a high-end centre.

Will sign Marner and people will say he's overpaid until they see him and EP explode under a coach that doesn't suck the life out of offense and creativity.

Will trade Dakota Joshua

Will sign Willander and re-sign Demko to a 4 year 7.5 million contract.

 

[Sasha Orlov]

MTL adds Sidney Crosby

 

[Machinehead]

Hopefully the Rangers will fold.

 

[acor]

Rangers - nothing smart, as usual...

 

[ponder719]

Flyers: piss me off.

 

[Favster]

Flyers: piss me off.

Rick Tocchet

Rick Tocchet

Tocchet, Lappy, Sullivan (less so than the first two, but still, replacing Torts with a close friend of Torts is NO bueno) they have so many ways they can do it...

 

[Djp]

Buffalo

Make some trades
Sign some players
Draft some players

 

[AfroThunder396]

NJ: Overpay for some forward depth that will help in the short term but be anchors long term

 

[Jared Grayden]

I think Pittsburgh is going to be in a clear rebuild mode.

 

[Ace Card Bedard]

- Draft two forwards in the first round.
- Hire someone relatively inexperienced and cheap as head coach.
- Sign a few bottom six level veteran forwards in free agency.
- Sign at least one veteran defenseman who everyone thought already retired.

 

[BonMorrison]

- Trotz will go off the board and draft a big body grinder with our high level pick
- Sign grizzled over the hill veterans
- Trade Evangelista's RFA rights for nothing at all
- ???
- Profit

 

[atlanticobserver]

Tampa:
Re-sign RFA Gage Goncalves to a cheap bridge deal, $1.5m x 3
Re-sign UFA Jonas Johansson to a cheap deal, maybe $1m x 1 ish
Re-sign UFA Yanni Gourde to something like $3 x 4
Trade Isaac Howard for another prospect/picks
Slot in AHL C Jack Finley for Luke Glendening
Let Nick Perbix walk, use remaining cap space on a gritty third pair defenseman

But we all know there will be some big trade out of left field.

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

- Trade down in the draft at least once
- Aquire a Burns replacement
- Pursue a superstar forward

Uncertain if the goaltending mix changes or not.

 

[M88K]

Dallas
Has to move Dumba somehow. Launch him into the sun, Sacrifice a small child/goat. Whatever it takes to get this loser and his caphit off the roster.
Should move Bambi (Marchment) too.
Re-sign Bourque & Duchene (only if he takes another 3m deal).
Benn probably comes back too
Hopefully not move Robertson, but that's probably what happens

 

[frederixx]

Pittsburgh trading away all their vets. After Lemieux and Crosby ERA, they're aiming at McKenna

 

[HanSolo]

Anaheim Ducks

-Hire David Carle or anyone but Quenneville
-Fire Rich Clune
-Win Second Overall at the draft lottery
-Draft Michael Misa
-Sign Brock Boeser and Nik Ehlers


Maybe like one of these things will actually happen.

 

[Soundgarden]

Keep Brunette
Trade Svechkov and Evangelista for 7ths and dog shit
Try to tank for McKenna but end up losing the lottery to Pittsburgh and draft the next Legwand :/
