This proposal loads up for this year and then you find a big chunk of open cap space going into this off season where there are some good looking free agents that Neals money would be better spent on.
Just my take... one of about 10,000 in this thread.
Panarin @ 6m
Bobrovsky @7.4m
For
1st round pick (mid 20s likely)
2020 2nd round pick
TJ Brodie @ 4.65
Mark Jankowski @ 1.67
James Neal @5.75
