So... are we assuming players keep their current contracts? What about pending UFAs? They'd be worth a lot less than a guy signed forever.

That's your call to make. Current contracts as they are now. If you feel you would have the cap to resign a pending free agent, then draft them with confidence.

I'm not really partial to any remaining team, so if an actual Habs fan wants them, take 'em. I'll let random.org decide it for me.

And the winner is....The San Jose Sharks

I think it depends on what kinda team you're trying to build. I may try the Edmonton eight year model.

We have the capability to make San Jose's first Cup Champion.

The Sharks could be that Champion.

drat you. I wanted the Sharks. Well, if you're really going with them and they're not available, I guess I'll take the LA Kings so I can build a team of the best looking people in hockey. We will win games by making opponents cripplingly self-conscious.

So you're drafting Lundqvist in the first round? I guess that ruins my plan of an all-goalie team.
