When we acquire a 3C, I guess I would be fine with Rowney as a 4C. However I don't like how McKegg could be 5th on our center depth chart.
Adjust plans accordingly.
Conor Sheary and Brian Dumoulin have not signed their qualifying offers, which they received as restricted free agents, and have until 5 p.m. Wednesday to file for arbitration.
Sheary and Dumoulin are represented by the same agent, Lewis Gross, who has not returned multiple calls and text messages from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
Rutherford said he expects the two to go the arbitration route, although that’s not official because it’s not his call, and nothing will be official until 5 p.m.
“We don’t have an agreement with them,” Rutherford said. “Five o’clock today, I think, is the filing [deadline] for arbitration. I would expect that’s what they’re going to do.
Adjust plans accordingly.
Banking on 4mil for Sheary and 4.5mil for Dumoulin, and assuming Rowney and Ruhwedel go off the books (AHL), they'll have about 3.8mil left with lines looking something like...
Sheary - Crosby - Hornqvist
Guentzel - Malkin - Kessel
Hagelin - ? - Rust
Wilson - ? - Kuhnhackl
Reaves (assuming he's not a regular in the lineup)
Dumouloin - Letang
Maatta - Schuiltz
Cole - Hunwick
Murray
Niemi
I'm starting to get really worried about that Sheary contract.
If he wants 4.5 or more then i say adios. No point overpaying for 1 years worth of production and a crappy playoffs.
Not that I know these guys in real life, but they don't seem like the sort of guys that would want to create a huge fuss. Anybody know who their agents are?

Thank you! Absolutely this. Same for Dumo. I like him, but he's a black hole offensively. No way I pay him 4+.
Strongly disagree regarding Dumo. We have to sign him at any cost IMO.
