With that being said, I don't think we see the Stars make a move until late Thursday or Friday at the earliest. It seems there really are only a handful of real contenders this year, and the market could soften up with more sellers than buyers.

The numbers are tough even with Robo at $12.5M.

Stars currently have 10 forwards signed at a total of $87.56M.

5 defenseman at $28.46 M. Goalies at $9.25M

Total obligation is $87.56M.

Let's say the following signings happen:

Robo - $12.5M
Benn - $1.0M plus bonus
Mav - $2.0M
Nils - $1.5M
Petro - $775k

That brings you to $105M and you're over the $104M cap.

These numbers are assuming that Benn's potential $2.0M bonus will go on this year's numbers using Seguin's LTIR.

I know they can play around with the numbers a bit, but the cap space is really tight.

Completely agree. You'd probably be under the cap by maybe a few thousand dollars by the time you get to game 1. That's how close it would be.

Anyone else having issues with victory plus? Every game since the Olympics I've been having constant issues with the stream freezing and buffering.

Yeah, but it gets fixed pretty quick and I'm not missing any action.

Selling all their best players is Hockey tanking. I honestly think the Stars are just that good. We will find out Friday .

I just read something on Reddit that if you rewind to about 15 seconds behind live it should work, I tried that and so far so good

Worked fine on my phone tonight, but whenever I tried to cast to my TV it was very l****. Ended up just casting audio to speakers and having the game open on my phone. Fortunately, midway through second it was comfortable enough to just background noise

Hey, a big right handed defenseman! Also seems like Nil is good at getting other teams to pay the partial salary of guys we trade for.

He fits the Nill type: experienced veteran. And he's a big body to help with the physicality Gulutzan wants to see. He and Bischel give us a lot of size on the blueline. He's also a RHD. But his play has fallen off a cliff this season. I hope that's just because of how bad Vancouver has been this year. If we can get him playing at a level he did the previous couple of seasons, then this is a solid move. At half the salary, not a bad option.

This deal likely means Petrovich won't be re-signed in the offseason. And they will probably try and offload Lyubushkin somehow this summer.

Very good move. It's smart, easy, and doesn't rock the boat one way or the other too much.

The only other move I think they are making is adding a middle six forward that can play up and down. But again like Meyers, it won't rock the boat one way or the other much, and I doubt we give up much.

this is a move I like...still have some reserves to add some more and we dont risk hitting the cap when everyone gets back

Fun fact Tyler Myers was born in Houston, and his maternal half-brother is Quentin Grimes. Myers moved to Canada at the age of 10 when Grimes was born.

Feels like more is going to happen. There's still like $7m in cap space, right?

I know they needed to dump Mangiapane's salary to create a little more space, but giving up a 1st to do it is crazy crazy work.

He's also referred to as Big Tex by all the boys on his former teams.

Edmonton gave up a 1st for Jason Dickinson? Even with the cap relief that's damn near malpractice by their GM.
