Since there are a few teams (Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, Tampa) that are up against or even over the salary cap, it seems that there still will be some interesting trades taking place before the season will start. Apart from this, there are still some UFAs available which potentially could help out some teams.
This is a pure speculation thread on what you would like to see for your nhl15 team to happen 'real nhl' before start of the season, or what you expect. Obviously talks on other teams welcome as well - it will be interesting to see whether some moves make some of the lower picked teams more interesting and stronger, and the first picked teams a bit weaker..
Interested to hear your thoughts!

And I will start with my own team: St. Louis: 1/ Schwartz to be resigned 2/ a combination of Cole / Leopold / Jackman + traded away 3/ get a first round pick 2015 in a trade 4/ UFA signing or trade for 3rd/4th line help (LW probably) 5/ Improvement in goal. I would love to see a trade St. Louis - Dallas along the following lines: Lehtonen + for Elliot + one of three above mentioned D-men. (Dallas might go with Lindback as 1st goalie this season..). Apart from the Blues, I would expect that around the league before start of season: 1/ Boston trades one of their D-men (Boychuk) to a team like Calgary / Dallas 2/ Chicago trades one of Sharp/Bickell/Oduya/Leddy 3/ Tampa trades Ohlund or Brewer 4/ Penner signs with Calgary / Columbus / Ottawa 5/ Winnik signs with St. Louis ( ) or Montreal 6/ Setoguchi signs with Detroit 7/ Jamie McBain signs with Detroit 8/ Handzus signs with NYR 9/ Alfredsson retires

I'm hoping Isles don't make any moves so I can have that 10 mill to sign some guys. I have a few in mind that would help a lot.

4/ Penner signs with Calgary / Columbus / Ottawa if this happened in real life I'd be happy...but for NHL15 I'm hopping it doesnt happen he is SOOOOOOO slow

I wonder how much PK Subban will get. I'm hoping 5-6 mil so I can have around 5 mil in cap space

Yeah I agree, but honestly the leafs were going to be a playoff team except for that awful collapse. So they r close. Also going back to Vinny Lecavalier, I wouldn't give him away for nothing. He scored 20 goals last year so at least he's producing somewhat

See I disagree. I don't feel like the Leafs are a playoff team. The Defense is pretty bad and forward wise, nobody except Kessel and Bozak are consistent. They play Orr way too much and play Phaneuf as a shutdown #1.

The Leafs need to let themselves plummet to the bottom of the league for a season or two and then start a real rebuild.
