Well, here we are, and here we go... We are going into the summer with: 46/50 contracts (13 UFAs, 8 RFAs) 29 million dollars in cap space UFAs: Perron, F Kane, F Sprong, F Fischer, F Hirose, F Aston-Reese, F Luff, F Czarnik, F Gostisbhere, D Simek, D Reimer, G Lethemon, G Hutchinson, G RFAs Berggren, F Raymond, F Veleno, F Gettinger, F Seider, D Albert Johansson, D McIsaac, D Newpower, D The big 4 RFA's (Seider, Raymond, Veleno, and Berggren) are going to command 15-19 millon alone. Leaving us with 10-14 million to spend on UFA's. That's between $1.8 to $2.6 to spend per roster position to fill 5 roster positions (assuming Edvinsson joins the roster). With that tight of cap space, re-signng Perron for anything more than the above average per position cost would be regarded. Re-signng Ghost is basically impossible. And We better pray Kane and Sprong are willing to stay modest (they won't). We have the funds to basically commit to 1 of our big UFA's and Fischer. That UFA better be Patrick Kane. I'm hoping we can keep him for $4 to $6 million per. That leaves us with $1 to $1.75 to spend on each of the last 4 positions. AKA not Perron or Sprong. One of those positions will be filled by Fischer. The remaining 3 positions are Forward positions. I truly think one position should go to another Fischer clone, and the other to Mazur. It's time. We have a good roster with good leadership. Time to graduate our best and brightest. We don't have the money for much else anyway. The last position is for the #1 callup, whomever it ends up becoming. Go into next season with this roster: Debrincat - Larkin - Kane Fabbri - Compher - Raymond Rasmussen - Copp - Berggren Mazur - Veleno - Fischer FischerClone #1 callup Walman - Seider Chiarot - Petry Edvinsson - Maata Holl Lyon Husso I like our forwards, but goaltendng and defense will be a bit fuqqy unless Edvinsson immediately plays like a golden god. Petry isn't being bought out. Dumby Derek plays him 18+ minutes a night. Maata/Holl trades should be explored.

University of Michigan captain and Port Huron, MI, native Truscott has informed the Canucks he will not be signing with them, and will become a UFA in August 2024. I think there's a strong probability he's ours considering the obvious. LHD that will turn 22 in April. He was drafted in the 5th round by the Canucks. He's not overly impressive as a Dman, but I think the leadership role he has with UofM, a premium college program, is enticing. He would serve as a great replacement, or stand-in, for the oft-injured McIsaac.

Finally done some draft research. Figuring we keep our first and draft in the 15-25 range, here are my top 5 targets in order: My top target: 1. Michael Brandsegg-Nygard 6'1" RH RW. Kid plays an all around solid game on both ends of the ice, but most importantly to me, he plays like a true powerforward. Something I think we need in the pipeline. The weird thing about him is, he is worse than Swede... He is - allah forgive me - a N O R W E G I A N. We never had one of those. 2. Anton Silayev 6'7" Russian LHD. I know we dont need anymore LHD in the pipe, but this kid is a massive physical defensive dman that skates well. I cant help but want. 3. Sacha Boisvert 6'2" French Canadian LHC. Plays in our backyard for Muskeegon, and is committed to North Dakota next year. Kid is a highlight reel dangler. Seems to be brimming with confidence and bravado. 4. Carter Yamechuk 6'3" Canadian RHD. Solid all around 2way Dman. 5. Andrew Basha 5'11" Canadian LH LW. Very fast, good hands. ----------------------------------------------------------- 6. Aron Kiviharju 5'9" Danish LHD. My darkhorse pick. This kid was once talked about as possibly becoming the 1st overall in his draft. But now that his draft year is here hes undersized, and his skating hasnt developed great. However hes still very talented in all other areas. If we are picking late late, he'd be a good boom/bust pick to develop.

U2 is literally the greyest band -
from freidman "There are some teams scrambling today, there are a couple of people who said to me there will be some teams that don't have this kind of infrastructure that will be like "oh no, we're in trouble here"". "The NHL believes that they should not be in the business of publishing this stuff, as a matter of fact I've been told several times that the relationship between the NHL and CapFriendly was icy" FYI - Detroit is one of the teams without a cap alterntive

Oilers don't really need the unfair advantage to beat Florida -
Yzer isnt making 3 million trades fellas... this group finally took a massive leap forward this past year, the core will be staying together, and UFAs will try to be kept We certainly wont be shipping out defensive vets either (walman, copp, jtc, chia) Could see a goalie trade, and insignificant roster pieces like Holl, Veleno, or Maata move< but tats bout it unreal
