Forsling was claimed off waivers

Verhaeghe and Boqvist were signed after their previous team didn't extend a QO

Greer, Stenlund, Lomberg were all depth pieces acquired for close to league-minimum contracts.

Ekman-Larsson signed after a buy-out.

Lorentz was a throw-in, for a Duclair cap dump.

Montour (3rd), Bennett (2nd+B prospect) were traded to them for favourable returns.

Luostarinen was a throw-in for Trocheck.

All these players could have been acquired by anyone.

Their big moves?

Reinhart cost them a 1st. Tkachuk cost them Huberdeau and Weegar. And the Tkachuk trade wasn't considered a slam-dunk the day it was made.

This notion that the main reason they built this team was the tax code, is nonsense.
