Lanny

Phaneuf? It'd be nice if they could find a trade partner who would swap a similarly aged Dman for Larsson or Foligno.

Not interested in the money or term Sekera is going to command.

not for this season

Bylsma mentioned moving Ristolainen to the left side this morning on WGR.

I feel like i recall a time in which he has acknowleged Darcy. Either in a press conference or on WGR.

Other lefty D are Green, Martin or Beauchemin

They have 9 first and second round picks remaining from the last three drafts.

Perhaps McGinn makes Foligno expendable?

Legwand, if they keep him, could also be seen as a good mentor for Eichel. He knows what it's like to be a #2 pick in the league. I don't hate what they got, I just hate the value they gave up to get it. Hamilton also added, Legwand may be needed as help to get to the cap floor.

He's restricted at the end of the 2 years however.

not impressed, I don't see how Legwand adds any value to the deal

My issue with Lack is he's only signed through next season.

There has to be someone else coming with them, Legwand is a cap dump.

Last three full seasons, 18, 28 and 17 goals. Around 20 is probably what you'd expect year to year.

I'd be all for it assuming it was part of something bigger, like trading a dman for another forward.

Sam Reinhart? ????

I voted zero, I think the goalie market never materializes into something worthwhile and they get their goalie in free agency. I also have a feeling they stand pat and use all their picks padding their prospect pool.

4th line 20 point guy.

He said youngish, I think he'd be fine with someone around 27-28.

Lack's entering the last year of his deal, I'd rather just sign my own 28 year old goalie and use that pick elsewhere.

I know it's likely he resigns in Minnesota, but I think if rather keep the picks either Lack or Lehner will cost and sign Dubnyk, or another of the free agent goaltenders.

For 2 less seasons, the total difference is like $3.67M

here's the site I've been using https://www.hockeyscap.com/buyout_calculator/cody_hodgson

If he's bought out now it's $791,667 over 8 years. If you wait until next season it's $1,666,667 over 6 years
