  1. Yeah but sounds like Utah isnt efficient, effective and economic, so who's the real winning organisation
  2. It's clear Adams et al are banking on young players improving. It's not an unfair hope, but I would like us to actually improve the roster and then have the internal improvement move us from bubble to competitor. Power should be better in his zone. Quinn should bounce back. Benson and Kulich should improve. Kesslering may have a breakout with more opportunity. Don't underestimate Doan being a better forechecker and defensive player than JJP. Actually JJP being a rush player means he actually may not flourish on better teams that dominate possession. Regardless, this team needs to get another one to two top 6 players and a top 4 D to actually be competitive I think. We should have used 9/26 picks / Byram to do it.
  3. Lyon always played great against us, so if nothing else, this signing stops him stealing about 4 points from us in the standings
  4. If the arbitration is below a certain value (about $4.8 million) the team can't walk away. So if he's given $1.5 million, you're stuck paying that for an 8th defender. If this guy was basically a thrown in for the Norris trade, it makes sense they never saw him as more than that. He also signed for basically league minimum - he clearly isn't well regarded.
  5. Why would we need to improve? The answer's in the room.
  6. Honestly, if I was Dahlin and I see what we've done so far, I'm going into the GM's office and saying if we don't make the playoffs you're trading me
  7. No, you're right. I mis-remembered the max contract as UFA age. My bad.
  8. New CBA reduces the age you become a UFA. When does that come into effect?
  9. I assume we'll just trade him one-for-one for Rust
  10. Yeah but we got JBD with it!!
  11. It really feels like this front office has no clear plan or idea what they're trying to achieve
  12. Not if he LTIRetires right?
  13. One of the reasons we've linguered in misery for so long is because of the minimal moves Adams makes. New GMs make about the same number of moves in an off-season as he has in 4/5 off seasons.
  14. Marchant playing till he's 43? I wonder if the league will review that signing
