The Four Peters said:Interesting. Hayes is cheaper this year but then will need to be re-signed. Don't like them getting older and think they gave up on Smith too quickly, but Hayes is a good guy to bring back.
Overall I'm ok with it.

I'm not saying you're wrong, and no longer having to sweat the Savard LTIR exemption is nice, but why do you say it's a win?
This was my first thought when I saw Savard included too.The Four Peters said:Would love to take this cap space and put together a deal for someone like Seabrook.
I'd be 100% on board with everything (even the Dougie stuff) if only there was no McQuaid/Rinaldo.The Napkin said:If only he hadn't signed Rinaldo it'd be starting to look like a decent week

They've had to be cap compliant on day 1 of the season with Savard's $4 million on the cap. Then they could put him on LTIR. It limited what they could do in free agency. They no longer have that obstacle in the offseason.MiracleOfO2704 said:

I'm curious to see how Julien deploys Hayes. Seems like he could be a nice fit on Krejci's right.
