Still nothing about Tampa being done

[NatoGhost]

How would we fit Nash? And why?

 

[BowDownToVasilevskiy]

 

[Flat Ronnie]

Wait, wait...so what is our lineup supposed to look like now?

3rd line is: Hagel - Nash - Paul?

 

[Felonious Python]

Weekes hasn't Tweeted about this, and I've got the Sportsnet stream up. He's on ESPN. Anyone been watching that?

Nah Nash gotta be the depth guy in case someone gets hurt.
But wonder how tf we can fit Nash in our cap situation

 

[ccman68]

nash was just on waivers he is probably just gonna be in the ahl until we need him

What does our ideal playoff forward lineup look like right now?

 

[JTBF81]

Still hoping for an add on defense. JBB was willing to move young guys Raddysh, Katchouk, and Joseph, but somehow Foote still remains untouchable? I just don't see what the team sees in him at this point, but maybe he will turn the corner in his D+6 year.

Yeah same. Maybe this guy fell for a troll account? Can't figure how we'd fit Nash, unless someone gets moved but I highly doubt it'd be for Nash lmao

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Nash is going to be like why did you give my number to Nick Paul?

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Killorn - Stammer - Kuch
Palat - Point - Cirelli
Hagel - Paul - Colton
Maroon - Bellemare - Perry
Nash

Hedman - Ruuta
McDonagh - Bogosian
Sergachev - Cernak
Foote

Vasy

Hagel - Colton - Paul
Maroon - Bellamare - Perry

But I think we gotta sort the second line. Cirelli and Killorn can't provide the ideal setup to use Stammer at his full potential.
I'd like to see Hagel on a line with stammer, as he's great at retrieving pucks and he likes to set up apparently

 

[The Gongshow]

Why even trade for Nash. He's not really considered a depth piece at all... incase of injury I'd rather ABB

 

[ccman68]

33

 

[The Gongshow]

So for only a 2nd and a prospect we could have got Rakell..........
I hate the Hagel deal even more now. I'd rather have Rakell for the rental tbh. He takes top 6, slot Cirelli down to the 3C. boom.

 

[Point21]

Strange move, unless we are trying to send him down and its just a conditional pick if he gets claimed

Rakell is a floater, Hagel is a motor...Also ABB is not a bottom 6 forward he would be useless in the playoffs in that position. Nash is insurance on the bottom six big body can play solid defense.

 

[Point21]

pretty solid chance we have another deal in the works

 

[ccman68]

rakell is like a bigger tyler johnson we don't need a player like that

2nd + roster player + prospect. They haven't said anything about quality there yet. And Pittsburgh's prospects suck.

When Nash is on the ice neither team scores. That's a very useful piece for Cooper come playoff hockey. Nash has gave Tampa fits for years getting into the zone. I'm very glad Toronto or Boston didn't trade for him.
