The thing is, you aren’t getting a long term solution for scoring help at $6MM or less, just a stop gap player looking to cash in down the line if we went that route. I don’t mind solidifying the bottom part of the roster while we wait for the cap limits to come off, then we have the ability to target actual long term difference makers.He's a tremendous PKer, has good size and is really tough but this feels massively redundant. Several other bottom 6ers locked for the same term that are already overpaid and we're just adding to our pile of bottom 6ers. Would rather use this money on someone who might actually help the team score.
Scoring isn’t part of our identity and we need to get back to our identity which is being tough to play against. More flying Superman punches and more FU!!!He's a tremendous PKer, has good size and is really tough but this feels massively redundant.

These are the types of deals that cost us Fiala and now they are going to cost us RossiOr earmarked for Faber/Kaprizov extensions
death by a thousand cuts. (or signing six bottom 6 players to 3 to 4 million deals).These are the types of deals that cost us Fiala and now they are going to cost us Rossi
We'll have $27M in space for 2025-26 and only Faber, Rossi, Khusnuts and Wallstedt to re-sign, with Yurov and Buium coming in under ELCs.These are the types of deals that cost us Fiala and now they are going to cost us Rossi

$27M - Faber's $9M = $18M - 2 ELCs = $16M.
That's $5M a piece for Rossi, Khusnuts and Wallstedt and the later 2 aren't going to get anywhere near that.
