Description

I haven't posted one of these in a long time so trades and stuff may be off
Tried to get guys who fit the Ruff system
Rosen trade is based on the fact the Sabres have a lot of players like him, and he can't really fit the play style of a bottom 6

Please leave any suggestions in the comments, as they really help me for future GM posts

Tampa quickly declines. Nothing about that trade interests them at all.

I question the Necas deal, and Tampa has no reason to make that trade. But the other move can work.

Vegas is going to have to get creative to be cap compliant next season. That includes if they are prepared to let Marchessault and Stephenson walk. They may be counting on teams to outbid one another for Roy, but who wants to pay an average third line Center $4 million except Vegas? Good luck.

Roy makes 3. Plays up and down the lineup. Plus we’d get better offers
