Quinn sits and is sent to AHL after road trip. He needs to play about 20 games to get in the groove and get his scoring touch. Bring him up after Christmas.
Sheahan becomes extra forward.
Dallas was stupid for trading away Bishop and lost out on the chance to use his LTIR cap relief. If I'm Adams I go back to Dallas and offer Bishop, Bjork and Pilut in exchange for Hakanpaa and Gurianov. It gives Dallas cap space and LTIR relief to be able to sign Robertson long term.
You play him on the 4th line center and PK as long as he is healthy. If you decide to move him for a 3rd or 4th rd pick at (TDL), presuming Sabres are not close enough for playoff run, you tell him they want him to experience the playoffs but want him back next year.
These huge contracts for younger players has me concerned on Cozens next contract and Quinn and JJP in a couple of years if they do play up to expectations.
Would not have given Stutzle more than Tkachuk...but it's Ottawa. Let them keep throwing money to their young unproven players.
Liking Tage's deal more and more!!
