jesus fuck, what a steal.

They still need to shed ~3mil
A tender swap for Fluery makes sense now tho

man trading fleury isnt going to be cheap
they HAVE to trade him though to free up space lmao what a situation to be in

Unsure what the cost will be.

They have no choice.

Was made public knowledge that he could not be given away for a 2nd rounder.

Now they have to give him away and cant even afford to retain any of his salary.

Its funny because Flower is still a capable goalie but in the cap world he is a massive liability to get off the books now.

Kind of starting to think the importance of cap management is becoming more important than the actual players on the ice.... How the game has changed.

So Lehner is going to have shoulder surgery and apparently this means Fleury is off the table.

Lol

McCrimmon says LV is not trading Marc-Andre Fleury. It will be a Fleury/Lehner tandem
lol..



but how long is he out for you only get so much LTIR they need to clear space before hes back unless its like full season


this has to be some sort of trade tactic? like what..who the fuck are they going to trade for more cap space and not be a dumpster team
Lehner will have shoulder surgery later this week but is expected to be ready for the start of training camp,

yeah....whos getting shipped out then lol both are ready for training camp thats 12m to goaltending... and over cap

Has been for ~5 years already

To be fair, next season is one of those season where u def need 1a 1b goalies. There's a lot of back to backs, even with potential reduced travel probably a good idea to have 2 tandems going. Damn if Lehner having surgery, I don't think Vegas is in a rush to trade either

which doesnt seem great since they are probably going to have fuck all for depth and need to ride hard mins out of their top 2 lines and have dumpster dived league minimum contracts filling out
the goaltending might not be tired but the players likely will be lol

well they stopped the talking for gallagher new contact, he was supposed to be making arround 6m per year for 6-7 years and after signing toffoli they quickly stopped the extension talks.
Either they wanna see how he will produce with less ice time and on a 2nd line before starting the new contract discussions or they will try to shop him after getting 2 toffoli and anderson.

If they are shopping him, it will suck trading him since i love the player but for the best return its the best guy to shop
