Flashsabre Posted June 9, 2023 Report Posted June 9, 2023 I predict by next summer they will be looking for a way to move on from that deal. Quote
Curt Posted June 9, 2023 Report Posted June 9, 2023 Dang, Severson is GOOD. Would have been a perfect addition for Buffalo. That term is a little long, ages 29-36, but not disasters.

He's good, not really good. Expand Severson has rarely been used as the primary PP QB, or put up lots of PP production in his career. He has been used on their 2nd unit mostly. His primary contributions, by far, are at 5-on-5. Are you thinking of Dougie Hamilton? Quote

Wondering though what this means for possibly getting Graves....another 3rd rounder? With CBJ, still wondering with this addition if we could pry Jiricek from the jackets (wishful thinking), since they are loading up on defenders. Edited June 9, 2023 by Carmel Corn 1 Quote

Flashsabre Posted June 9, 2023 Report Posted June 9, 2023 I’m not a huge fan. 9 years in the NHL and this was his only season as a + player. Many years at -25, -27, -30. Makes a ton of boneheaded plays. I don’t think he’s horrible but 8 years at the price they will definitely have buyers remorse. 1 Quote

Expand From the NJD perspective, they've got Hughes to take Severson's PP2 time. Graves could still hit UFA, but this definitely opens the door for the Devils to re-sign him. They can still be pretty smart about their forwards as Meier could get a long-term deal rather than the giant 1-year cap hit, and Bratt could get a bridge as well, then get a big deal when the cap goes up in a couple more years. Columbus is as likely to trade Jiricek as Buffalo is to trade Power. 1 Quote

PerreaultForever Posted June 9, 2023 Report Posted June 9, 2023 Columbus thinks they can win now? Weird. I guess they tanked a bit for Bedard and now feel they have enough to make the leap. OR they plan to trade away somebody else. Makes no sense imo. But it also makes no sense for us to do nothing (so I hope we do something before next season). Quote

GoPuckYourself Posted June 9, 2023 Report Posted June 9, 2023 That sucks, to me this means Ryan Graves will be re-signed by NJ. Quote

Rasmus_ Posted June 10, 2023 Report Posted June 10, 2023 This is a contract that will look bad by year three. Not saying that I've watched a ton of Severson, but he's not someone I'd want no years 4-8 of this contract. Quote
