That, and the fact that every one of us would kill to look like him. Except chz. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree - he played both shaken and stirred in his last playoff appearance. Apologies to Thorny for his beating me to the Imlach.

GASabresIUFAN Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 On 10/1/2020 at 8:48 AM, LGR4GM said: I believe Rossi should be put in the NHL now. He's been training for 6 months for the physical part and is already 19. Cozens is only 7 months older. If Rossi is ready, isn’t it reasonable to think the Cozens who has also been training for months and is 7 months older is also ready? 2 hours ago, Ducky said: 5 x 5m for Lehner is a bit of a deal, no?

PerreaultForever Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 I wonder if a lot of Europeans who get bought out or are FAs will just choose to stay in Europe for a year rather than move their families around in this covid world. I'm betting quite a few. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorny Posted October 4, 2020 Report Share Posted October 4, 2020 5 minutes ago, thewookie1 said: Then trade Miller or Risto and keep Montour. He isn’t a cap dump either It'll be interesting. In theory I'd say they should simply trade the one who will provide the largest return, but I don't think Risto is on the block in any way. I could see it being a thing where we end up trading one of Montour or Miller for a low level return, a mid-round pick, where the cap space gained is the most noteworthy positive aspect. He's certainly not a cap dump and that's not what the deal would be reflecting, merely the idea that we may NEED that $ to upgrade in another area, creating a situation where we "lose" the deal but improve the team. I don't think entering into the season with all of Risto, Montour, and Miller and their corresponding salaries still here is one of the better courses of action.

I think the NHL is facing a financial crisis I think they’ll be very few moves made and the only trade moves made will be money out for money in contracts I think most teams will be spending very close toward the floor rather than the cap.

I think UFA will get very little. There will be virtually no signing bonuses Many RFA will not get tendered and teams will avoid arbitration by walking away from contracts.

Never undervalue the value others place in the mystery box. All draft picks are overrated. Every single one of them.
