I feel like a trade will happen.
Unless Mangiapane signs for less than $3million we will already not be able to fill out a 22 man roster - assuming the remaining pieces are signed at league minimum.
I don’t imagine Tre wants the cap that tight even if Mangiapane signs for less than 3 and that isn’t even with a full 23 man roster.
You’d have to think Ryan is on the block and if they want to do something bigger a guy like Hanifin seems likely to be swapped for a RWer.
There are still a ton of guys that are looking for work and will likely sign a cheap 1yr deal and wait for the expansion draft to pass and open up more cap space for NHL players to take up league wide.
Lucic’s contract and the Brouwer/Stone buyouts are just under $8mill in cap space.
