It would be nice to know what the real reasons were. He said interest was low, but this community thinks interest should have been high. In between those two opinions is the reality that happened inside the locker room and in day-to-day interactions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
French Collection Posted October 12, 2020 Report Share Posted October 12, 2020 Simmonds, Bogosian and Vesey to the Leafs. I had a Leafs fan tell me yesterday that Bogo was a winner and would solve their RHD issues. Well he did win in his first ever playoff appearance so there is that. I didn’t have the heart to tell him he was the Sabres 5th best RHD. I just said to expect him to miss some games. They are making a big deal out of Simmonds‘ toughness. Unless he finds the fountain of youth he will get about 10 minutes a night and have minimal impact. We know he has passed his best before date, as do his previous few teams. I wish those three luck, except against the Sabres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think KA wanted to go in another direction and thought Lazar could do the job for significantly less. That's the way things work for most 4th line players. My guess is that KA didn't feel Asplund was ready to step in and be more effective then Girgensons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MODO Hockey Posted October 12, 2020 Report Share Posted October 12, 2020 Imagine if we could land Mikael Granlund also.. send Sam away + Hutton, then capspace isnt a problem, then again we need a goalie to if Hutton is told to go fly.

Radar Posted October 12, 2020 Report Share Posted October 12, 2020 MODO hates Rhinehart but I don't. I hope they resign him. At this point I would like to see an upgrade in goal but if we have upgraded our offense it compensates for some of the lack in goal. If we had had more scoring last season we may have been a playoff team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dudacek Posted October 12, 2020 Report Share Posted October 12, 2020 I think we're all in agreement that Hutton was bad last year. Ullmark was fine, however and is young enough to get better. Merzlikins, Keumper and Raanta all make in the low $4s. Fleury is $7. Korpisalo is $2.8. They can sign their three RFAs right now under the cap. But they can't do that and add a good goalie without sending a player out. The option of taking on a contract dump is out. We'll have to get more creative than that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montour out, goalie in...even if it is two separate deals. 😉 Edited October 12, 2020 by LabattBlue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
