Now that the TDL has come n gone its time to speculate our cap space next year.
1st we can wipe off our UFA's:
--------------------
Vrbata @$5m
Hammer @$4.5m
Prust @$2.5m
Barts @$1.75m
Weber @$1.5m
--------------------
TOTAL: $15.25m
RFA's:
--------------------
Vey $1m offseason trade prolly
Baertschi $900k resign min qualifying offer
Etem $850k same
Granlund $767.5k same
Pedan $792.5k same
Possible Buyouts:
Burrows $4.5m
Higgins $2.5m
Run with that for awhile... Need 5 forwards n 2 d signed or promoted.

I think buy out higgens and keep burrows. Doubt FA will buy them both out. Vey wont be traded he was offered around the league with no takers so back to Utica for him if we even qualify him.

I would offer Sven 3 yrs 2 mil per
Vey and Granlund 2 @1.2
Etem 2 @1 mil
Pedan 3 @1 mil
I fully understand the Dallas decision. Younger cheaper faster . This is what we need to get this year.
Benning needs to look at Hansen this summer. Even though he didn't do it today , he can get us that first round pick this summer.
We can also trade for that stud D prospect in the summer.
Give Vey another contract - VANTEL
Hansen and hopefully Edler at the draft. I wonder what the tanev and hamonic deal would ultimately look like cus id like that too. Could bring in some quality young dmen. I hope benning really does go after the top couple UFA dmen from college as he stated in his presser.
Time to focus on the draft. As it stands right now we are likely projected to draft 8th or 9th. If we stumble down the stretch we could pull into the 7th spot which would be ideal. It seems as if there is a drop off after the top 7. Lose with integrity

As it stands the worse we will draft is 8th, more than likely a top 5 pick.
