I respect Michalek for allegedly being honest but im not sure that should get him more money

 

[BondraTime]

First get rid of Cowen before Wier.

Same age and Wier is CLEARLY better.

Not disputing that he wasn't better this year, because he was, but Wier is a year older than Cowen (I know you will say 5 months)

I think Cowen will be gone, I also think he will be a better D than Wier, but it likely won't be with Ottawa.

whoops almost the same age

They will both be 25 next season so not a huge difference


A little off topic but age typically does effect ability in junior. Later birth dates tend to be at a disadvantage against earlier birth dates

To continue the discussion about guys getting released from Bingo, we have seven UFA's and six RFA's that spend significant time in the minors.

RFA
Fredrik Claesson
Jakub Culek
Darren Kramer
Shane Prince
Cole Schneider
Garrett Thompson

UFA's
Aaron Johnson
Brad Mills
Patrick Mullen
Carter Camper
Alex Grant
Derek Grant
Chris Wideman

Of those guys, the only ones I see us 100% re-signing are Claesson, Kramer, and Prince. Wideman, Derek Grant, and Schneider are all guys who I see staying also. So that opens up seven spots which is plenty for the guys we have coming in.

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

To correct someone from the last thread.

At the deadline it was Wideman that Murray said they wanted to give some games to this year, not Claesson. When one of the reporters named Claesson as a potential call up, Murray responded with pretty much a no that they don't plan to bring up Claesson.

With the logjam of LD we have, I'm not sure Claesson will have his shot.

Methot
Cowen
Wiercioch
Borowiecki
Philips
Claesson

Only room for three.

I agree. I think he'll get his shot next year when Phillips is gone and possibly one of Wier or Cowen.

 

[DrunkUncleDenis]

I agree. I think he'll get his shot next year when Phillips is gone and possibly one of Wier or Cowen.

 

[Sensinitis]

Lol.

Ya, if Phillips is gone we have 3 legit D + Cowen.

Package Cowen and then that leaves space to give players like Claesson, Wikstrand a chance at some point.

"Hispanic@TheDisco":

On your RFA & UFA choices to resign for next season.....

RFA
Fredrik Claesson
Yes resign him although I remember reading last fall that he would give it 3 yrs to get to the NHL if not then he would return home. Not sure if it was carved into marble or not on that statement.....

Jakub Culek NO NO 1000x NO

Darren Kramer
Yes resign him, kid busts his rear all the time, protects his team mates, a leader on the ice and off. Darren is even developing a bit of a scoring touch last season am happy that he has developed that way. He will never be Bloomfield or SDC that way but am glad his hard work has started to show results in goals and helpers......

Shane Prince
By all means resign Shane I think he could take the next step to Ottawa next season. No more needs to be said about him......

Cole Schneider
I would resign Cole as he deserves a shot up top next season. He has never been treated the same on this blog as he is not a glory boy draft pick. Cole did lead Binghamton last season in goals......

Garrett Thompson
No do Not resign him, make room for a new prospect.........

-------------------------------------------

UFA's
Aaron Johnson
I would resign Aaron out of the 3 UFA D men he is durable tries on the ice, has skill plays both ends of the ice. He works hard on the ice and he cares. He could mentor the young D men who will be in Binghamton next season....................

Brad Mills
No let him go not durable missed a lot of games, let him go.......

Patrick Mullen
In a word NO let him go....................

Carter Camper
Resign Carter after a slow start he came on real good last season, plus Binghamton will need a top line center. Carter is durable playing in 75 of the 76 games last season.......

Alex Grant
No let him go misses too many games, and not very good in his own end he was -17...............................

Derek Grant
I like him as he has size is good on the PK, could fill in up top as 4th line center, is pretty durable. I would resign him but can not resign everybody nature of the game + you can only have 50 contracts.....

Chris Wideman
Yes by all means try to resign Chris he is ready to take a shot up top next season. Chris is very good on the PP had 61 pts last season he deserves a shot up top......................

******************************************

Ottawa should trade PW and retire Phillips, Wideman and Claesson could take their places. I think Ottawa should go with 8 D men next season as D men wear out and get injured. Easier to replace from within and cheaper...........................

 

[Vesa Awesaka]

I wouldnt be mad if ottawa explored if there was any better AHL centers then Camper.

Paul and Dzingle are guys who will likely be C for bingo next year

Theres also some College players who are probably coming to bingo

Wow Baillargeon completely fell off with only 3 goals this year in college. I guess Eichel coming there ate away at his ice time

I wonder if he helped land O'Connor

Time for Dunn to come to Bingo too. He also needs to get back on track after signing his ELC and then being let go by his Q team

Personally I feel like Wiercioch has earned a chance to keep the top 4 spot and we should keep him. Move out Cowen, Gryba, and Phillips. Call up Wideman role with EK, Meth, PW, Ceci, Borowiecki, Wideman, and Claesson as our seven defenseman. Obviously that won't happen, but that's what I would like to see.

 

[Ouroboros]

Wideman didn't sound like he was too keen on returning in his end of season comments.

 

[danielpalfredsson]

Wideman will be a UFA come July 1st, so I'm guessing that he'll be fishing for a one way deal.

Given he was the best defenseman in the AHL last season, I'm guessing he'll have multiple suitors willing to take a risk on a cheap 1 way deal.

"Hispanic@TheDisco":

Well in my opinion I say trade Wiercioch now as he has some value, I do not think he will ever get any faster or quicker or stronger. He is poor in his own end and had only 3 goals in 56 games.....

 

[Tee Lo]

Does anybody else think that Karlsson would be winning his 4th Norris Trophy this year, if it weren't for Matt Cooke injuring him?

 

[mcnorth]

Agreed.

**** Matt Cooke. I do not wish him well.

 

[HavlatMach9]

Unfortunately injuries are a part of the game. Even if we wonder how much more EK would have progressed, I'm thrilled Karlsson is great again.

 

[Six Assets]

What if...

time to move on

 

[Canadian Time]

And yet, the likes of you will beat all minutiae with respect to how traded players are performing. Mouth, both sides.

It was an accident, injuries are part of the game.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

Don't think that was an accident at all IMO

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

If Weir is that much clearly better than Cowen than wouldn't you trade to package Weir in a deal to get an upgrade? He is not top 4 material, and agreed on the Michalek points in the other trade rumours thread. He is really overrated defensively

 

[BonkTastic]

"Hispanic@TheDisco":

On your RFA & UFA choices to resign for next season.....

Jakub Culek NO NO 1000x NO

Culek is already gone. We bought him out (mutual buyout) halfway through the year, and he went back home to play in the Czech league. He's no longer our property
