North Buffalo Posted July 12, 2019 Report Posted July 12, 2019 Bennett looks like he channeling his inner Lanny McDonald

Loading your team up with Lucic deals, and blowing it up like trades of Eberle for Strome, Hall for Larsson, the Barzal pick for Griffin Reinhart etc. and creating a roster that looks like THAT versus sitting on your hands and doing almost nothing to a roster like THAT Patience might work out in the long run, but with McDavid's own wearing thin, this has to be a terrifying time for an Oilers fan. 2

Well, in fairness, heard somewhere a while back, you have to watch 'em in person for a year to know what you've got. ? The GM that said that FINALLY seems on the right track. So, sadly, maybe there's hope for Holland
Brawndo Posted July 16, 2019 Report Posted July 16, 2019 How long before McDavid asks for a trade? 6 Months? A Year? Crap how long before Eichel is doing the same?

LGR4GM Posted July 16, 2019 Report Posted July 16, 2019 Nope. Another 2 left wings. I suppose Namestnikov could still be considered a center but again, we don't need a 3rd line center.

Wouldn’t be my target for sure, but as long our centre depth chart remains Eichel/Mittelstadt/Larsson/Sobotka I’m interested. 1

Pretty much where I'm at. Obviously he's FAR from ideal, but the bottom line is we need more NHL centers.

Is Namestnikov more of a centre than Johansson is? Actually asking. I like the look of Eichel/Johansson/Rodrigues/Larsson a lot better than the group you listed. Edited July 16, 2019 by Thorny

I like the look of Eichel/Johansson/Rodrigues/Larsson a lot better than the group you listed. In my head they both started at centre, MJ has been away from it longer. I like that centre group better too because I’d rather play Risto at centre than watch Sobotka, but neither of your middle guys are natural centres. I don’t think he’s the answer either, but Asplund is the natural centre being constantly overlooked here. He was scoring at around a 60-point pace in the 2nd half against Rochester as a 21-year-old AHL rookie, which is pretty impressive, especially for a defence-first guy. i think he gets called up at some point this season and never goes back down, making Larsson or Girgensons trade bait in the process.

Another GM with Pittsburgh & Carolina ties. <_< The cost for ALL players Botterill has his eyes on just went up. Of course, should the Sabres hang onto Sheary 2 more years, we might have just found a player for Seattle to covet. :p
