There's also no actual contract signing tool, so it just assumes the previous cap hit for any UFA/RFAs that you sign, which will likely end up being higher.



And from what I'm playing around with, I'm feeling its less and less likely Seattle picks Giordano. I'm feeling like all the chatter about the Flames needing to make a deal to keep Seattle from taking him is just Seattle bluffing: they really want Kylington but are really trying to convince the Flames its Giordano they want just so they get another asset or two.
I didn't waste any of my picks on UFAs. Since The Kraken get first crack at UFAs, I went with guys under contract or pending RFAs. There are a decent number of pending RFAs that are arbitration eligible. Wonder if the Kraken will avoid some of those.

With Tampa I picked Foote, might as well leave them in cap hell. Expect Tampa will be paying heavily in this expansion draft.
