This is a cap dump, so nobody get too crazy, lol 

This gives Det a committed D man for a team losing over half his defensemen next season, and on a team that may have a hard time attracting FA. Retention makes the contract more reasonable

[Colorado Avalanche GM]

why is he losing over half his defensemen next season?? Just because the contracts are up means nothing. He will have first shot at resigning them starting right now with extentions.

[Carolina Hurricanes GM]

You know what I mean. They are up, and they are worse than Zaitsev. Just because you have first shot at re-signing doesn’t mean they’re all going to re-sign. This kinda move happens all the time IRL

I get this trade. Accept

[Detroit Red Wings GM]

I'm moving on from them Colorado. Are you resigning all of your expiring contracts?

I only have 4 in NHL so yes I probably will resign all of them. Next year I will probably resign most of them also though.
