nice effort
some quick conflicts i see with CF:
FYI Blackwell signed thru next season
PDG is '21 UFA
New York Rangers - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps
unsure if Cuylle signing March 1 would be slide-eligible
just me:
i suspect Pajuniemi gets an ELC for next year,
(EliteProspects reports his contract expires
Lauri Pajuniemi at eliteprospects.com)
Rykov(QO/RFA), Sjalin(ELC) are unpredictable maybe's
thanks
Thanks, I misread that about Blackwell, and forgot PDG, feel like an idiot. If Pajuniemi also signed, we'd have 44 signed if Cuylle also signed.
So we'd be looking at something like this, excuse me but I love the business side of sports so I'm a bit OCD, also have it lol, but here's what I have now.
Ideal 2021-2022 New York Rangers Roster:
LW 20 Chris Kreider(2026-2027 UFA) – C 93 Mika Zibanejad(2021-2022 UFA) – RW 89 Pavel Buchnevich(2020-2021 RFA)
LW 10 Artemi Panarin(2025-2026 UFA) – C 16 Ryan Strome (2021-2022 UFA) – RW 24 Kaapo Kakko (2021-2022 RFA)
LW 13 Alexis Lafreniere (2022-2023 RFA) – C 72 Filip Chytil(2020-2021 RFA) – RW 12 Julien Gauthier(2020-2021 RFA)
LW 48 Brendan Lemieux(2021-2022 RFA) – C 21 Brett Howden(2020-2021 RFA) – RW 74 Vitali Kravtsov (2023-2024 RFA)
LD 55 Ryan Lindgren (2020-2021 RFA) – RD 23 Adam Fox (2021-2022 RFA)
LD 79 K’Andre Miller (2022-2023 RFA) – RD 8 Jacob Trouba (2025-2026 UFA)
LD 51 Tarmo Reunanen (2021-2022 RFA) – RD 64 Nils Lundkvist (2023-2024 RFA)
LD 57 Yegor Rykov (2020-2021 RFA) – RD 25 Libor Hajek (2020-2021 RFA)
G 31 Igor Shesterkin (2020-2021 RFA) – G 40 Alexandar Georgiev (2021-2022 RFA)
That’s 22/23 possible NHL spots
In The System:
LW --- Will Cuylle (2023-2024 RFA)
LW 26 Tim Gettinger (2020-2021 RFA)
C 17 Kevin Rooney (2021-2022 UFA)
C 47 Morgan Barron (2022-2023 RFA)
C 82 Patrick Khodorenko (2022-2023 RFA)
C 90 Justin Richards (2021-2022 RFA)
C 37 Gabriel Fontaine (2020-2021 RFA)
C 43 Colin Blackwell (2021-2022 RFA)
RW 85 Austin Rueschhoff (2021-2022 RFA)
RW 63 Jacob Elmer (2021-2022 RFA)
RW 59 Ty Ronning (2020-2021 RFA)
RW 28 Anthony Greco (2021-2022 UFA)
RW 56 Lauri Pajuniemi (2023-2024 RFA)
LD 97 Matthew Robertson (2022-2023 RFA)
LD 83 Calle Sjalin (2023-2024 RFA)
LD 46 Brandon Crawley (2020-2021 RFA)
LD 22 Anthony Bitetto (2021-2022 UFA)
RD --- Braden Schneider (2023-2024 RFA)
RD 53 Hunter Skinner (2023-2024 RFA)
RD 44 Darren Raddysh (2020-2021 RFA)
G 32 Adam Huska (2020-2021 RFA)
G 80 Tyler Wall (2021-2022 RFA)
G 71 Keith Kinkaid (2021-2022 UFA)
That’s 23 signed or RFAs that could be tendered, not including whoever gets picked in the expansion draft, or if we deal someone to get a Defenseman to be eligible to be exposed besides Bitetto, unless we can’t deal DeAngelo, then we expose him, once he goes unpicked, we buy him out.
Gives us a total of 44 Players signed, would be 43 with whoever is taken in Seattle Kraken expansion draft.
UFAs:
C 76 Jonny Brodzinski
RW 33 Phillip Di Giuseppe
LD 42 Brendan Smith
LD 27 Jack Johnson
4 UFAs, any of them likely to be brought back? PDG & Brodzinski on minimum 2-way deals?
Unsigned Picks:
RW 67 Riley Hughes
RW 52 Eric Ciccolini
C 84 Adam Edstrom
C 70 Karl Henriksson
C --- Oliver Tarnstrom
C --- Evan Vierling
C --- Matthew Rempe
LW --- Brett Berard
LW 83 Leevi Altonen
LD 54 Simon Kjellberg
LD 86 Zachary Jones
LD 91 Jacob Ragnarsson
G --- Dylan Garand
G 60 Olof Linbom
G --- Hugo Ollas
Here’s the 15 unsigned draft picks that would seem to not be signed for the 2021-2022 season according to you guys. Sjalin & Skinner need to be signed by June 1, 2021 according to CapFriendly.com, so I have both signed, but I know Sjalin needs to develop, so that one is up in the air. Of course this doesn’t include any draft picks for 2021, depending on how things progress this season, if we’re looking at a high pick, is it safe to assume a C is the top need, NHL ready C that is?
Also, it looks like if the cap stays flat at $81.5M, they'd have around $26,775,199 to spend, more if they could deal DeAngelo with either little salary retained, or if super lucky no salary retained. I know the most you can retain is 50%, so that's $2.4M more, making it $29,175,199 in cap space, I would guess Buch would cost $5.5M or around there, Igor, I'm not sure, but I imagine more than what Georgiev got for sure, hoping a long term deal, as for Lindgren, is the $4.8M DeAngelo a good number or too much, should they go more around like $2.5M a yr? Then we have Chytil, Gauthier, Howden all RFAs, and Hajek and Rykov, if they bring Rykov over. I'd imagine the RFAs in the minors would get the usual $700K to $750K 1yr deals.
