Cap Compliance!

Upvotes
Finally… the deal has been struck. So what’s next??
12m is awesome! Here’s why I think it’s awesome for cap compliance!
We have -1.36m cap space on puckpedia, Hyry can go down to the AHL, bringing our cap space to -485k. That is a small enough number that we have more options!!! We can now keep steel and Faksa if we so choose. We can offload Myers and sign a league min guy if we so choose.
So, the question becomes, who do we offload? Steel, Myers, Faksa, or is there another solution?
My mind says we trade Myers and Desmith together, bring porier up, and be able to three way trade for a defensemen with enough retention to fit (cap hit of 1.16 max) to replace Myers.
Idk if that magic trade exists… because of that, I think we will unfortunately trade Faksa.
There is a chance of some sort of upgrade trading Faksa or steel as well using Desmith as the piece to create retention for an upgrade, but I don’t know if that happens. I think we just trade Faksa, and build up cap space for something to potentially happen at the trade deadline.

Daily Free Talk Thread

This is a trial run on a daily free talk thread during the off-season. This is the place where we can talk about persistent trade rumors involving our team, and speculate on moves Jim Nill might need to make. We can also talk about other trades and news in the league, and events in the hockey world. If ACTUAL news happens (a player on our teams signs a contract) that can be a separate post.
I've set the comments so they should sort by new by default, so that should make it easier to keep up with the flow of conversation. Off-topic chit-chat is welcome here as long as it follows the typical subreddit rules. Overall, be cool. Don't be all, like, uncool.
