What else should he be using cap room for in the short-run?
It's not the NFL where you can roll it over to the next season.
Use it or lose it.
LTIR-6,350,000
Retained salary-3,571,428
Buyouts-4,025,000
Buried Penalty-3,850,000
Johansson-4,000,000
Total-21,796,428
For a bottom dweller of a team? That’s nuts. Sure they nabbed a couple of DCs at the end of the first round but that’s an absurd price to pay for them.

Briere is in no rush to dump Risto.
Given the alternatives at RHD are Johnson, Belpedio, Grans and Sampson.
He can move him at the TDL, or next summer.
No reason to take a lowball offer.
Thanks for fleshing out my point, dead. I'd say that Briere is in the opposite of rushing to deal Ristolainen. There is no intersection of improved to the point of garnering an interesting offer and not an important piece for the Flyers to keep trying to prove that they were right in trading for him for there to be a deal.

Keep in mind Briere has yet to trade someone that he hasn’t felt committed to having to move.
That’s cause they are still in their “player evaluation phase”

Wild that they still don't know what we have here. Our players had zero value when Briere took over. They gained value when they over performed last year. Now they have zero value again.

They're not trading Power. And Byram is basically Drysdale, a high pick who's a disappointment.

A name to think about is Cozens, they might want to move McLeod up to 2C, so a package might land him, Frost, Laughton and a 2nd?
McLeod is not a 2C, he just doesn't have enough offensive prowess, he was tried with Drai for stretches last year. He is a suitable 3C that shouldn't even touch your 2nd PP unit.
