This is what we waited 10 days for? Seems like most of these guys thought they were still on the beach.

More like sober up too.

He used to be an Influencer.

What about the lonely option? Maybe some of us are just lonely….

I don’t think another LHD is a big position of need. A RHD is a need.

Too laborious to figure this out.

Why are we comparing a former #1 OA draft pick to one’s drafted in the mid-to-late first (or later)? I get they may have the same physiques, but don’t the comparables end there?

If there are any doubt weddings are just for women, look no further than this photo.

That’ll be another trope we keep repeating in coming years (assuming he signs).

I just wonder if “the legend of Devon Levi” is going to become a thing within 5 years.

Payback for all the ***** his older brother dumped on him all his life.

He has only played over 60 games 4 times in his 15 year career. If he’s cheap enough and doesn’t cost anything, he’d be good depth, but wouldn’t count on him to put a full season in (done so only once). Plus he makes $5.25M and has a M-NTC (but maybe VGK don’t know this).

NHL games should be available to a more traditional streaming service, like Netflix, Apple+, Amazon Prime, or even Disney+. People who subscribe to ESPN likely do for reasons besides NHL games, so content goes wasted. I would like to watch games, but I’m not subscribing to ESPN just for this.

Levi has tons of promise, but that’s about it. His numbers have reverted to the mean this season, which is still a very high mean. But, he’s never won an NHL game and like every goalie prospect, he’s certainly no sure thing. Timo Meier is. Heck, Levi isn’t even signed to a Sabres contract.

They want goalie prospects? I would send them Levi for Meier straight up.

I think we need to have realistic expectations about how we define “cup contender”. We are not a cup contender right now. We may be in a playoff race, but we’re highly unlikely to make any waves beyond that. Are we a cup contender next year, maybe. But, maybe not. I expect playoffs though. I do think we’ll truly be a cup contender by the year after. Quinn and JJP should be well-improved by then. If they have not improved by 2 years, then I agree they need to be replaced. But they shouldn’t be used as chips right now for an unrealistic cup run.

Or just to live.

If someone gets hurt I expect the next man up to fill in. It’s a hard balance though. Playoff experience (even if it costs an asset) will undoubtedly help this team. Filling in for an injured player also gives experience in the face of adversity. I just don’t want to send assets for a month-long stint with the team.

I don’t want any rentals. Get someone who fits into the team’s long-term vision or forget it.

Good to know. That’s looking like a bad contract. $10M for 92nd in total points since coming back. Plus, his reported lack of effort off the puck.

Yep. I don’t like reading KHL and draftee in the same sentence.

Or the bigger elephant in the room is does VGK move on from Eichel and his contract. Iirc, his NMC kicks in this offseason. If they don’t move him, they’ll be stuck with that contract till the end.

It’s a long season. They need to pace themselves.

This situation sounds like the Jason Robertson situation of last year. KA heard he could be available, so he checked in to see the price, but was ultimately just window shopping.

Nobody can beat the cologne he makes though. Stetson drives the ladies mad.
