Goalie has been acquired, Bennett is off the block.

*BUMP*

I've listed my NHLers in tiers...looking to make actual some roster moves. I'm above the floor and I'd like to stay that way and I've got enough active NHLers if I didn't make a single move this summer.

I'd like to get younger on defense and I'm thin on the wing. I've got too many centers. I want to make room in the lineup for Howden and Lindberg but both are waiver exempt so they can wait their turn if necessary.

I'd like to upgrade Mike Smith for another starter if anyone is interested. I'm not concerned with getting the proper backup or putting together an actual system.

Propsects and picks are listed on my sheet. Don't ask about the 2016 1st...that's untouchable with Bennett and Ekblad.

(Brian) Gionta acquired for Engelland...added some salary and some adequate production on the wing. Just call my forward group Sam Bennett & The Bottom 6 Brigade...

Bourque and Fayne acquired for Cole and Condra...both Bourque and Fayne fall under the "Available For Upgrade" category.

Howden and Lindberg have re-signed with their respective teams and are both potential NHLers this year. I don't want to say no entirely to trading either guy but I'd rather move my veterans before I move any young players. Both are waiver exempt and will probably not start the season on my active roster until I move a veteran player.

I'm currently $4.688 million above the floor. Realistically, I could move Dan Boyle ($4.5 million) for picks/prospects. Ideally, I'd like a roster defenseman coming back though.

I still have extra centers to move...granted, they're 3rd and 4th liners.

Updated from the Methot deal this week.

With the replacing Cole and Engelland with Fayne and Methot...I can feel comfortable moving Dan Boyle for futures. It's likely his last year so I'd like to get something for him. A couple of 2nd round picks would be satisfactory.

Still open to moving Dan Boyle for picks...two 2nd round picks will work, can be either 2016 or 2017.

The waiver draft is less than a month away and I'm considering my options with the #2 pick. There will be active NHL players available at the top few spots of this draft. I haven't decided if I'd want to move out of the pick or just move down to get multiple picks. If I'd move down, I'd still want to stay in the top 8 range. I'm not officially auctioning the pick but if you're interested, let me know what you're willing to pay so I have an idea of what the market price is.

Boyle for 2017 2nd

You're almost there...

*BUMP*

I'm actively shopping a few bottom 6 forwards...Shawn Horcoff, Tanner Glass, Stephen Gionta and David Legwand. Seeing opening post for asking prices...
