Speculation: Roster Building Thread : Part XVI (Playoffs or Retool?)

[kovazub94]

JT Miller had 40 power play points last year.

Yes, he'd be on PP1. lmao.

That's because he's playing with Hughes and Pettersson. We don't have those players.

P.S. Hey, trolling is fun

If I don’t reply to your responses I am not be rude, just tech impaired.

You can like Chytil as a player. I love his speed and skillset and honestly he can be dynamic. He carries the puck well through the neutral zone. He has a decent shot.

The issue with Chytil is he is often prone to chicken without a head syndrome defensively. It's not always but it happens from time to time. That's a fair criticism of the player.

I don't think he's a finished product but you do have to wonder with the injuries if he ever will be. Using him at 4.4M as the centerpiece to acquire JT Miller, a bonafide star in the league, is a no brainer. I can't understand not wanting to do that other than (1) you dont want to trade 1sts for anyone, or (2) you are hugging a player you like.

And I am huge Chytil fan. Just trying to be objective.


Cap estimates are $97M for next year per Friedman

Wow! That is a huge boost.

Yeah the contracts are going to be stoopid with so much money to go around and so few good players to spend it on.

Will end up making players like Kreider look like f***ing steals. NYR have to be careful, or they'll end up filling out their roster with 3rd liners they have to give 6m AAV to sign in UFA.

Genghis Khan needs be added to the list.
The fact that 1 in 200 men that are walking on the face of the earth today can be traced back to him speaks volumes.
Talk about a deadbeat great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather.

 

[Mugless]

Any murderous dictator worth his salt would know who should be on PP1.

 

[Clark Kellogg]

The latter number is dependent on the NHL and NHLPA agreeing to a new CBA. It isn't a done deal, yet.

Right you are. Unless Friedman knows more than Bettman.

MANALAPAN, Fla. -- The NHL salary cap is projected to be $92.4 million next season with the potential of it climbing slightly higher pending a possible negotiation between the League and NHL Players’ Association, NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman said Tuesday.

This season’s salary cap is $88 million.

Bettman, speaking at the end of the two-day NHL Board of Governors meeting at Eau Palm Beach Resort & Spa with NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly, also said the League is currently projecting $6.6 billion in revenues for this season.

“The cap under the current guidelines in the Collective Bargaining Agreement would go up 5 percent,” Bettman said Tuesday. “As we look at revenues, we’re going to have discussions with the Players’ Association about escrow levels and whether or not the cap can or should be tweaked a little more on an ongoing basis, but that’s something that we have to really work out with the Players’ Association and we’re having those discussions.”

JT Miller is a 100 point player. f***ing obviously he's on PP1 LMAO.

 

[McRanger92]

Tocchet ripped the Canucks players to the media pretty bad today. At this rate JT will be a Ranger for just a 1st round pick

There are only 3 players that are required to be on PP1 in that scenario - Fox, Panarin, and JT Miller

Can't do it. Would be a terrible trade. Even if Top 31 protected, the team just can't afford to trade it. Maybe Vesey, Lindgren, Korczak, McConnell Barker, and Carrick to avoid giving the 1st? I'd hate to lose Carrick but you have to give to get.
