Why the Anaheim Ducks’ Future Hinges on Signing Cutter Gauthier Before Training Camp
Good general managers figure out the salary cap issues after signing their players. Remember, teams can go over the cap by 10 percent in the offseason. There is no reason to say the Ducks can’t sign Gauthier now and have him ready to go for training camp in September. Verbeek should lay the groundwork for roster moves later on, but should not pigeonhole himself into making everything work now.
Cutter Gauthier’s number has gone up, and the Anaheim Ducks will need to move money
The New Jersey Devils got into that problem last season before the Luke Hughes extension and, to a greater extent, with their non-acquisition of Quinn Hughes. Former GM Tom Fitzgerald didn’t understand he could have made the money work after acquiring the eldest Hughes brother.
