This is official? The Hawks seemed to be one of the teams mentioned.

I would keep Bailey far away from Bedard.

10 million in Cap space for Varly, Engvail, and Mayfield. Totally doable in my opinion.

Let's see what happens with the added space. Will it be used to bring in a scoring forward or just used to bring the same team back that was not good enough?

More or less bring back the same mediocre team. I don't think they re-sign Mayfield and Engvall (I hope they don't re-sign the latter).

They're going to have to clear more space if they want to try and sign someone like Tarasenko

Would be a colossal blunder to bring back the same team that could not get out of the first round. Signing Mayfield would be dumb. I like Engvall for his speed, but it has to make sense.

Nah.

For the right price and term, I’d happily have him back.

Agreed, but this is his one chance to sign a big ticket as a UFA and this year's class stinks. I think he's going to take the money and head elsewhere.

I like Engval too.
And naturally EK drops the click bait of a DeBrincat move in the trade chirp. I do believe that Barzal needs a finisher, and the Cat would fit the bill. He's small but a fierce little nut. I watched him a few times live last season (I live in Ottawa) He's a great playmaker too and I think his lower goal totals can be attributed to a bunch of factors. (brutal coaching staff, second line players, zero power play structure)
Now does it work on the Island ? I dunno. And who would the Isles have to give up to get him.

Pageau (money retained) Varly....and?

Isles do not have the assets to get him. And he'd have to agree to an extension which seems like it would have been talked about already if the Isles were one of the teams he was interested in extending with.

I believe DeBrincat has stated he’d only sign term with Detroit or Florida.

He has good size. Maybe another Major Nelson?

We'll see. Going to Notre Dame in the fall.

Good pick though, I think they got good value there.

Oh maybe that was it. I probably skimmed over that part and just assumed it was this upcoming season

I guess we'll find out.
