Team Explanation

2018 Draft: #4 Brady Tkachuk

#22-31 Rasmus Sandin or Mattias Samuelsson.



Free Agency: Calvin De Haan 6yr $4m deal.

He grew up in Ottawa so he signs long term. Either plays with Karlsson or allows Chabot to move up to 1LD.



Perron & Englund to Buffalo for Nick Baptiste rights. Gives us RW depth at a low cost. Also a local boy who will play hard for the team.



Smith to Cgy: Helps the Flames out with Center/LW depth and gives them a defensive forward to help with their goals against. Slight cap dump for the Sens to make room for contracts.



70m cap hit leaves room for Karlsson raise and upcoming contracts.



It doesn't let me sign contracts a year in advance but Karlsson would be signed to 8 years $11 mill.
