Description
I am not saying Van will do this but it would make them a better team this year and next year.

Van is strong on the RW (Mikheyev, Boeser, Garland) but weak on the left (Hoglander, Kuzmenko). Which makes Lekkerimaki expendable.

Kuzmenko is a reclamation project for Pit

The 1st is going to be low

    It can be done with sacrifice. No way should Van offer term to Joshua or Blueger. Next year will be time for Aman, Karlsson, Podkolzin, etc.

    The defense would be a mess imo. They'd be hit by giving Guentzel a huge contract. Petey and Hronek probably swap term. Hronek will want to capitalize on his season and Petey is young enough for another huge contract by signing for less term.

    The team will be looking at bringing Lekkerimaki over after Boeser and Kuz expire. My thought is one will be extended in Van and the other traded or walks as UFA with Lekkerimaki stepping in for 2025-26.

    Lekkerimäki should be ready when Garland's and Mikheyev's contracts expires.

    laugh laugh You're over the cap. It is set at $87,700,000 this year not $88,500,000

    Since William Nyalnder came in at 8x11.5M Elias Pettersson will probably come in around 8x12.5M He's way better than Nylander.
