Could just be a budget thing or the fact that Belleville plays first. They sent down everyone they could, with the exception of DiDo.Nick Paul already down. Vouchers dislike for youngster is like nothing over ever seen before.
I wish we could find a perfect partner for Karlsson. Someone his age that compliments his style.
It's a dream but,
OEL
Jacob Slavin
Ryan McDonagh
Calvin Da Haan
Oskar Klefbom.
Man, if the Sens could land one of them, then have Chabot and Ceci on the second pairing... I would compare that top 4 to Nashvilles.
While we're at it we should get Mark Stone a perfect center too.
It's also a dream but:
Connor McDavid
Austen Matthews
Mark Schiefele
Sidney Crosby
Those would all work well.
what about the other winger, you cant forget the other winger. Come on man get your act together
Lets really see how our team plays until after christmas. With Karl regaining his composure and the strong early season performance of our D core, lets see if we can roll that all together with some consistent playing. Doesn't have to be the best, just good.
If a shutdown D is what we need, go for it. Personally I'm fine with the platoon defense until we snag that final forward.
imo the game plan is to have chabot and white in the lineup sooner rather than later, if thats the case and with didos recent play we are going to have some pieces we need to move out, either for futures or improvements in the lineup
adding white and chabot to our team gives us 14 forwards and 8 dmen with a few more pieces knocking on the door, i think the plan is that we make a move where we peddle our depth for a better piece
talking about saying things betterCouldn't of had said it better myself.
talking about saying things better
It's "couldn't have" vs "couldn't of"
I still think Detroit is willing to move Athanasiou
Ottawa was rumored to be interested I believe, and we have the pieces to acquire him.
Perfect fit
Still early in the season. We really need to wait until around Xmas or so, to see how the younger guys like Paul, White, Chabot, etc handle the pro grind and where they are in their development, before we start moving 'extra' pieces. A lot of young players look good early on, then hit the wall in December.
fair but even without chabot/white/paul we got 7 dmen on the team and harpur has shown he is nhl ready so a move should be made there at the very least even if its a dman for a pick

Do we, though? We just gave up a King's ransom to acquire Duchene. Plus, we're going to have all sorts of issues trying to re-sign Karlsson, Duchene, Stone and Ceci this summer...I don't think we'd even be able to fit AA into the mix imo. It's not a realistic option imo.

They will not really want Wideman, Burrows, or the pieces we are (should be) willing to offer. They will want high picks and good prospects, like everyone else.
GMs will take Paul as a throw in, not a centrepiece. Chlapik, Jaros, Harpur quality prospects are not the guys I want to move.
My move list would be around Oduya, Wideman, Phaneuf on the back end and Paul, Burrows, Smith from the forward group, which is not going to return Athanasiou quality.
Stay the course with our top prospects. White, Brown, Chlapik, Formenton, Batherson, Chabot, Jaros, Harpur, Englund should all be retained; especially without a 1, 2 or 3 next Draft

I would acquire rnh. is a center making a ton of money burn i alway thought he would thrive in the east maybe move duchene to wing.Shame we could not get eberle from Edmonton he is an excellent complimentary piece. Maybe if Edmonton continues to struggle they may part ways with RNH.
I like the player but 6M per ... Doubt we go that way now.Shame we could not get eberle from Edmonton he is an excellent complimentary piece. Maybe if Edmonton continues to struggle they may part ways with RNH.
