Thread: I Dont Even Know Anymore
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bast</b></div><div>I just don't see CHI retaining $2M for 6 years. I also don't think that they need the cap space immediately. I'm not as big of a fan of Liljegren, so he's mostly a throw in for me. It's thinking outside the box, but I don't see that trade even as a remote possibility for either side.

I expect Tre to bring in Tanev on a 3 year contract, and one of DeMelo/Roy to strengthen the D core. Aside from that I think he will look for a defensive 3C, either via trade or in free agency.</div></div>

I've never understood this sites reluctance to retain for a long time. In big trades involving big contracts - it absolutely happens! Kessel was 7 years at 1.2!!! (translates to 7@1.5 today). 6@2 isn't crazy for such an albatross deal.

I also think its weird how little people value guys like Lily. Sandin was worse than him and he landed a 1st round pick. Lily is Keefe's most used D when trailing and when protecting a lead this year. His underlyings are great and he is young. I basically consider him a younger Rasmus Andersson

I don't necessarily like <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/armchair-gm/team/5112553">these</a> moves, but given what we know I feel as though its possible:

Robbie to PGH for 46 OVR
Lily + 23 OVR to CHI for Jones (2M ret) +54 OVR
Marner to FLA for Ekblad + Knight

Zadorov gets the Brodie contract (4@5)
Dewer gets a depth deal
Domi gets a lifetime contract (8@2.75)
Murray comes back as our 3G playing with the Marlies

Lines would look like:
Knies-AM-Domi
Cowen-JT-Willie
McMann-Minten-Jarnkrok
Pope-Kampf-Reavo
Dewer

Mo-Ek
Z-Jones
Benny-McCabe
Timmins

Knight
Woll

I figure in 2 years time we would need to find about 8 million to fit our new contracts under. 4-5 would come from cap increase and 3-6 would come from JT's next contract going down. We could get another 1-1.5 by Moving Kampf so this should be sustainable

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Random2152</b></div><div>Okay this is officially a London Knights thread now.

First of all, Cowen shortie to go up 1-0 in game 6 in Saginaw. Win and we're onto the finals so let's ****in go boys!!!

Second, we have 3 guys on suspension right now, one of them is total ****ing bull****.

Boulton has 1 more game (today) after slewfooting a guy with less than 5 mins left 2 games ago
Lawrence got 5 games for a crosscheck on Perekh (who 100% deserved it)

And the BS one:
Landon Sim 5 games and an ejection for (reportetdly) calling a guy a p u s s y

This deep in the playoffs! ****ing unreal.

Anyway this team is great so we can still win but Sim is huge and KLaw has really stepped up so missing them for 4 games in the finals against the Bats or Gens is gonna suck ass.

Brzustewicz is up on the wing again. Tons of rooks stepping up</div></div>

Cowen has been very good today. Lots of chances

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LeafsForLife</b></div><div>Exactly my thoughts. I wanted the Leafs to win badly, but I can’t say I was surprised with how the game, series, and season ended</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Trickster</b></div><div>I'm numb to this result.
This is now what happens year in year out.
Not surprised.

I almost had hope when it got to game 7 but brought back down to the ground .

Lack of scoring is the continuing playoff story, yet again.</div></div>

Hey you guys remember those 80 seconds right after Willie scored when we all thought they'd do it.

God that was nice. And **** them for immediately blowing it. 80 ****ing seconds. That's all these losers could do
