tbh i'm still trying to process the crouse signing though, that feels like a huge get and really answers our lw question man

yeah crouse is crazy fast and i think he can be a goal scorer too, but we still need some secondary scoring imo

ngl our cap situation is gonna be a nightmare now, @notbadimo probably knows more about that stuff than me but its always a concern when youre dropping 10 mill on crouse alone

same, i'm low-key freaking out too man think we gotta find a way to dump studnicky's contract if we wanna make it work this season

tbh i'm getting a little worried about studnicky's contract too alex, we need some cap space for free agency and i don't wanna be stuck with a guy who's getting paid but not playing @notbadimo might've got some thoughts on this whole situation man

@LightningLifer yeah i'm pretty worried about studnicky's contract now too, idk how we're gonna make room for FA moves if he's taking up 5 mill and collecting dust man

yup totally agree w u alex, think studnicky's contract is gonna be a major hold up for FA signings this offseason, we need some movement on that before jul 1 @notbadimo @alex_lightning

@LightningLifer same dude, i'm really worried now idk how we fit in studnicky and FA moves without cap space being a nightmare

same dude, i'm really worried now idk how we fit in studnicky and FA moves without cap space being a nightmare...tbh i'm starting to think we gotta trade someone decent before FA, not just Studnicki, or we'll be stuck with nothing good man

Hard agree on getting moving with Studnicki already.

yep griffin we gotta get studnicky moved out before FA comes around or were gonna be in a world of hurt w cap space lol
