    For 10 to 12 million a season after an ELC, I'll be looking for a "Game Driver". Not just a D man that puts up points, but one that actually drives possession of the puck, both while his team has it, and taking it away.

    Nothing against you, or True, or anyone personally, but a 10 to 12 million a season D man 2 years from now, at 21 years old, better be a complete 200' d man and control the play the moment the puck is even heading for his own end, not just at the blue line, but in the neutral zone. Putting up points doesn't win you games, we've seen this with D men before, Risto comes to mind. Dahlin is not a complete D man, to dispute that statement is to not live in reality. 10 to 12 million? No thank you, just my preference.

    In your opinion was Jack's contract merit based.

    Where have you taken Tom "the cap doesn't matter" Webster and what have you done with him? 

    I don't think that's the proper framing. Eros is nice because he's good and cheap. He's not untouchable, but I think most would simply prefer to keep him. 

    And I still ask why. If this team was halfway decent erod would be in rochester. He is a borderline nhl talent.

    Asplund and Oglevie should take on more minutes and both should see their production increase.

    Borgen should be the team's #1 defenseman and Thompson should be a top-line player who leads the team in goals.

     

    Next season should see an influx of talent with Samuelsson, Davidsson, Laaksonen, Weissbach, possibly picks #7 and/or #31, and hopefully some NCAA free agents.

    But this is about all we have left in the system...and exactly why we need to use our draft picks to stockpile the prospect pipeline, because it's quite thin.

    You really think Thompson starts year in Rochester? I hope he does but I think Botts forces it again because how bad ROR trade turned out. 

    Wouldn't mind seeing Mitts start in Rochester too, if he is elgible. I dont think he is physically ready for the NHL.

    Hate the contract, but we couldn’t let him walk.

    Yeah, that worked so well with Vanek. Would rather of had those 4 1st rounders all day. Overpaying a player for the optics is not the way to win. 

    No way they can afford to keep all their young players now. Have to think Samson or Risto is traded. 

    Also dont forget a Dahlin deal has to be done in the next 2 years. 

    Have a great weekend!

    Makes sense. In the absence of good writing these last two seasons, you might as well just throw in more dragons. And show more titties too.

    Really, I thought episodes 1-3 were great this year.  Episode 4 was a bit all over the place but to me that is trying to show how Dany is losing it , ie: The Mad Queen.
