Personally I think that this clean up should be done before the draft in order to make sure that a team has already space in his minor roster for his projected draftees

For several teams clean-up will just mean move up all their extra prospects to the main NHL in order to keep them even though there will be a big possibility that they will never play a game during the season. By doing that we could already assume that their NHL team will not be very competitive and most of the time guarantee a place in the bottom of the league.

Before the draft we should only be allowed to move up a certain number of prospects and any extra over the 12 limit back to the pool draft to allow other GMs to have the chance to repick them

During the season do we have a minimum of real NHL players required in our main roster to guarantee a so call NHL team and not a Junior team in our NHL team?

I know that it is maybe too late for this year but if that topic was never discuss it should be this year if we want a competitive league and not an already guarantee standing at the beginning of the season. This way we will be forced to manage our Minor Farm as well as managing our NHL roster.

Maybe we should have a rule that say that any (p/n-a) with no game before the NHL star game should be back in the Minor Farm and any extra player in the Farm after the move back to the FA for next year.

Maybe this should be a new topic to discuss in a separate thread?

Any comments?

LW Nick Foligno, $7m (2019-2020)
2015 3rd round Supp Draft

for

RW Brett Connolly, $2m (2016-2017)
D Michael Stone, $3m (2015-2016)
2015 1st round Supp  (6th pick)
2016 2nd round Supp

I know. I am trading a big asset (Foligno) but I wanted to acquire youth and save $.

Connolly, in the wake of the departures of fellow forwards Carl Soderberg and Milan Lucic this offseason, has a real shot at sliding into the team's top-six forward mix in 2015-16. He should see more ice time and finally produce to justify its selection in 2010 in 6th place. He will also help me to improve my Right wing where I was weak.

Michael Stone should be the 2nd D-man for the Coyotes and see more PP time with Yandle gone.

The 6th pick should provide me with a very good/young player. I have several players in mind with my 5 selections in the first 11 picks in Round 1 to improve my NHL and Minor roster.

The 2016 should translate I hope in a good player next year.

I am also saving $2M which which will be well spent to find a good player in the FA.

For all these reasons I am satisfied with this trade.

Thanks for this deal. Pls confirms

LW Bryan Bickell, $3.6m (2015-2016)

for

2nd round 2016
7th pick 1st round 2015
2M Cash this year

This trade was made to save some Cap Space and to have a pick in the 2nd round 2016 draft. I had Bickell on waiver last year so it is not a big lost for my team. With the $ saved (3.6 +2.0) I should be able to replace him in the FA draft. For the Supp draft I am just dropping by 2 which is OK.

Montreal pls confirm

Call up Bickell from minors
