Offering Zaitsev with a 4th to clear the contract. Zaitsev was a top 4 producer for us last season with 136 fantasy pts in 56 nhl games. (17 nhl pts). Could serve as a solid 4/5 D for a team with cap space. Zaitsev has four years left at 4.00M per season.
INJURED RESERVE: NJ requests Brandon Sutter be placed on IR.
WAIVERS: NJ waives Kurtis Gabriel with the intention of assigning him to the Utica Comets.
ASSIGNMENT: NJ assigns Juho Lammikko to the NJ Devils.
We are working the trade front still to add a top 4 D. However updated for now. We have sent down Nic Petan and Kyle Turris until we have determined if they made the NHL. We have called up Ryan Suzuki who is waiver exempt to hold the roster spot. Also called up Riley Stillman who is waiver exempt as we look to find a top 4 D. Open to an expiring top 4 D or someone with a bit of term left. Have around 4 to 5m to spare on a top 4 D. Am available via discord or cdc for trade talks.

Recall: CBJ recalls Ryan Suzuki to the Columbus Blue Jackets.
Need to call him up to make sure I am roster compliant. He likely goes down after if a veteran makes it. Eichel pending IR.
NJ places additional claims (not expecting to get any of them but what the hell).
