Sabres should offer sheet Liljegren? Makes some sense. This collaboration brought 2 you by myself and @VonsabreC

Here’s the best part:

You can do 2x4.0, limit long term risk.
Toronto can’t match. And we get to reevaluate in 2 years because he’s still RFA.

Two year rental for a 2nd rounder that could off pay of x times over

First of all, holy poop to Toronto's playoff roster, which consists of 37 players. A couple are injured, but FFS.

Second, they can easily match that number. That's silly.

they have to make decisions to sign Kase, Sandin, Lybushkin, Mikheyev, Campbell as well.

Might not be able to

And if they did match they'd be up against the wall

id go after Sandin or Liljiergen

1 years 3.2 Mil offer sheet.

Then sign a longer term deal at a decent contract.

Agreed.
Roughly right they should have somewhere around $9.2m to sign those guys.
If their top UFA's and RFA'S all just resigned at their current Cap hit, it amounts to about $10.9m.
(All figures computed on my fingers and toes)
That would be for ~24 contracts.
It includes Giordano at $3.4m, who I would imagine he is a casualty; so reduce that $10.9m down to $7.5m.

They have some work to do.

just not seeing it. letting an established young top 4 D go cause you cant shell out an extra 1-2M? Think they'd much rather shed a middle 6F, and do so easily.

You wanna attack a team, go get Cernak or Whitecloud.

Don't you have to have the cap space at the time to match?

Eff it use it as a crutch to eff them over.

1 Year 3.9 Million.

Vegas' cap next year is 83M and includes 3G's.

RFAs are Nic Hague, Nic Roy, Brett Howden, Keegan Kolesar. UFAs are Reilly Smith, Mattias Janmark and one could assume both will be moving on.

Shoulda said bottom 9.

Like Mikhayev, Kase and Kampf. Telling you, they won't lose him to a 2nd round pick OS.

Offer sheets are soap operas at best. I believe they come with the same rules as the rest of the offseason, that you can exceed the cap by 10%. I'm sure they have a rough number for Timmy L in mind already and know what they need to do to prepare for him and Sandin.

A second round compensation for either of them just won't happen.

Apparently they don't think so... He's only played 2 of 6 games in the p offs

They most likely match but it hurts them which is good for us.

I also agree with that on losing Lilgren and Sandin, but losing all three would clear $4.3m...with Vet min of $750k the net savings is $2.0m. I can't see them losing all three either.

To me, the bigger point is TO should be a target for guys like Campbell, Lyubushkin.

Issue an OS to Lilgren, then follow it up with 1 for Sandin...really F them...then have you way with Cambell and Lyubushkin, lol!
