    It may not be what you want and it may not be what he wants, but it'd be perfect to turn this team into an actual contender. Imagine him going up against Toronto star power with maybe a little grudge or matching Tkachuk in Ottawa and Marchand in Boston. 

    Imagine a starting team that looked like this: 

    Skinner-Thompson-Tuch

    Olofsson-Kadri-Cozens

    Krebs-Mittlestadt-Quinn

    Asplund-Girgensens-Okposo

    Dahlin-Klingberg

    Power-Jokiharju

    Samuelsson-Lybushkin

    Just sayin'. 

     

    Kadri hadn't hit more than 19 goals in 4 seasons and has an absolute career year in his contract year. He's gonna go right back to his normal point totals.

    Welp he was pretty damn special in Nashville that's sad .

     Would you be intrigued if it was a 2023 unprotected 1st +JVR 

    If it's an unprotected 1st I could be tempted. Read an article that basically his entire core has to be rehabbed and he's just starting to ramp up the training. Likely on IR to start the season. If it causes his retirement he just becomes one of those trades to teams for the cap floor.  That first could be very valuable but I'd think they want to see how Ellis injury progesses. As for taking JVR the guy can put up some points but he plays no defense so he's essentially a lesser talented Skinner. 

  3. So I've seen talk about how Kane made Debrincat and he can't reproduce that in Ottawa. Well wouldn't we want similar result from say Cozens? What if he can turn Cozens into a ppg type player for the next couple seasons and accelerate his growth? Would have two legit top lines in the entire league.  Olofson, a first and maybe Portillo or Peterka? Quinn is untouchable to me. Sign Kane to 3 year extension.

    Ever notice that they never compare a draftee to just an average NHLer, yet for most of them, that's their ceiling?

     

    Right?  D man, 6 foot, skates well...Scott Niedermayer. Like, ok maybe tone it down and he's more like Brian Rafalski.

  5. Getting Kane would be fantastic. Throw him on the line with Cozens at center and Krebs on the other side and we have two legit top lines.  It would cost more than a first since there would be a lot of teams lining up to get him. Guy just came off a 90 point season.
