Shedding cap space
Hey,
Points only CAP League in sig.
Bit of cap issues when it comes to my keepers for next season. Need to find a way to keep Eichel as pointed out by a few on these forums. Eichel would take Debrincat's place.... so $3,6M more in cap space. Would take me up to over $65M out of an $81,5M cap for 12 players of a 20 player roster... too much.
Looking at my bolded keepers in signature, who would you try to trade to shave off a few million dollars to keep Eichel?
The only player I can think of would be Theodore who has a $5,2M salary (but I also think he can be a great asset for quite a while at that price). Unless I get a good cheap D as a return, would replace with Boqvist who is highly touted but hasn't done much yet.
Any ideas? Do you just keep Eichel instead of Debrincat and worry about the rest later? Do you try to make a trade (who?)?
Any and all opinions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
