Welcome to CapFriendly.

I think that you're way off on your signings.

To begin with, if you don't tender (and pay) Ryan Lindgren his Qualifying Offer ($3.6 million), he becomes an unrestricted free agent.

Schneider has missed only one game since being promoted from Hartford. Even if he gets a bridge deal, I think that it will be for more than that. He's fulfilling his draft position.

DuClair is only 29 next year and a pretty effective middle-6 forward. His last contract was for $3 million, so I think that someone will offer him a raise and at least 3 seasons.

Roslovic is 27 and was pretty productive last year for both Columbus and NY, both in the regular season and the playoffs. His last contract was for an AAV of $4 million, so I don't see him taking that severe a pay cut.

The biggest criticism I can levy is that you forgot to re-sign Kaapo Kakko.

Don't be discouraged -- most of us didn't do as well as this at the outset. Keep posting!

Thread: Player trades you can possibly target with the 18th pick
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SensFan40</b></div><div>18 is below the drop off in this draft, it's not a very valuable pick. For the Sens it would take 18 + for either Chychrun and Norris; let alone both.</div></div>
I think that he means either, like he does with the Winnipeg pair or the St. Louis pair (Kyrou and Buchnevich, as amended).

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>knowerofpuck</b></div><div>Pretty much every player you listed here is worth much more than the 18th overall pick, especially in what is considered to be a weak draft.

Zegras, Kyrou and Necas especially are non-starters if that is the centerpiece going back.</div></div>
"Just putting players to the trade. Not all trades would be straight up for the 18th pick. Trying to look at possibilities."

Over time, you'll learn to recognize those CF worthies whose ideas should automatically be given serious consideration. When something looks severely out of whack, you should give the issue some second thought, including maybe a second look.
