From the moment he was drafted we've been told, have known, and have seen that Reinhart doesn't "look" like your average "good" players out there on the ice. Well, were all different and that's a good thing. 1 Quote

Flashsabre Posted October 10, 2020 Report Posted October 10, 2020 Apparently Armstrong in Arizona has been told to cut $15 million. Yikes, how do they do that in a market where other teams don’t want to take on money. OEL staying really screws them up. One or both of their goalies have to be up for trade, even Keller at $7 million might have to be in play. They would love to move Kassel but is anyone taking him or Stephan? Quote

I don't think he's without use but he isn't usually the driver behind the scoring For (Against is another matter) when he is on the ice - at least that's what the stats show. My eye test tends to line up though and his short commitment contract I'd say reflects that - but everyone's personal mileage may vary. Sometimes you see Jack wheel around, find the open man with a great pass, the guy shoots it, and Reino gets a stick on it in close and Jack gets his secondary assist - and that's a valuable secondary assist. Obviously Barrie makes some good plays but often he's getting secondary PP assists on routine passing plays, and I don't think his raw numbers hold up their end of the bargain.

Radar Posted October 10, 2020 Report Posted October 10, 2020 (edited) Are we sure KA didn't opt out? Hey fellas, I think we've started going backwards. Adams better pull a rabbit out of his hat. Edited October 10, 2020 by Radar Quote

Thorner Posted October 10, 2020 Report Posted October 10, 2020 Hopefully those, "how come no one else wants Larsson?" takes can end. Add a strong defensive C, or Adams might be as bad at improving C as Botterill was. Quote
GASabresIUFAN Posted October 10, 2020 Report Posted October 10, 2020 (edited) Pysyk, Barrie, C Smith, Koivu, and Griess all signed today. Still nothing on Kahun, Fast or Toffoli. 2 minutes ago, Thorny said: Mogliny had more goals in one season then Larsson has points in his career. Edited October 10, 2020 by GASabresIUFAN Quote

What are we thinking Mogilny (UFA) will cost us relative to some of the other available market targets? 1 Quote

I wouldn't even look outside the organization, Mittelstadt should be able to provide similar defensive results while upgrading our shoot-out capabilities. 1 2 1 Quote

This is what Girgs should have been signed for. He had little value on the open market and the flat cap. Edited October 10, 2020 by LabattBlue Quote
