Small update, but only reaffirming what’s already been said.
1. Calgary continues to pursue Kakko, but they don’t want to pay a 1st and are more so inclined to make a deal around what they got for Bennett (2nd +) and from what I’ve heard they’re very much in the mix. NYR are playing hardball though so it remains to be seen if a deal can be made.
2. Craig still interested in weaponizing cap space and there’s a few teams in real trouble currently so he’s making the calls. I have no hot take here, so Sec will be the person to monitor on this one, seems like he’s hearing better details.
3. Keep your eyes out for a Wolf contract/extension, I’m told this is currently at the top of Craig’s to do list. Part of the delay is a result of some negotiations around 2way vs 1way with the player obviously pushing for a 1 way deal. Likely comes in around 875k for 2-3 years. I expect this to be shored up very shortly.
