Utterly Irrational Trade Thought Involving Other People’s Stars
by Quisp • • 1 Comment
I was just looking at San Jose’s numbers. They have a cap hit of $55.4 with seven players left to sign, to get to 23.

Several teams have left themselves ripe for raiding: How does Chicago pay for Kane and Towes and Keith who are RFA’s next year, not to mention Versteeg and Seabrook? Who does Calgary dump? 40 million for just 8 players? The Rangers have 40 million committed to just 15 players, I’m still trying to figure out…
