Come to think of it you could probably make a line of Katchouk-Colton-Raddysh and see how it goes from there. They've probably played together long enough. PEB can play with Perry and Maroon and ABB/Joseph can swap out as necessary with Katchouk and Raddysh.


lol they're gonna hate us so much

I believe Somppi was the guy centering those two. Somppi is low key a very good player who many aren't familiar with.

Ehhhhh I love the guy but I think that ship has sailed. At this point you'd be playing a dude who is 31 to potentially take ice time away from guys like Raddysh, Katchouk and ABB who have been waiting for God knows how long for their turn and may be more productive than Conacher. Like I get it but we'd just hold everyone back -Conacher included.
even if its just AHL i think he would help the young guys like Finley, Goncalves, Fortier, Cajkovic, ETC.

He would be a godsend for those guys. But I think Conacher is at the point of his career where bus rides through upstate NY mentoring guys is probably not the best thing financially for himself or his family. If he can make more money playing in the Swiss League (I think he is actually) and being a leading scorer for a championship team there then by God do it.

It will be big competition for 3rd line spot. We have Smith ,Raddysh,Katchouk,ABB,Colton if he stays,and probably 1 2 ahl guys who aren't on our radar but are on JBBs. It will be hard to replace legendary 3rd line ,but at least there will be playing best of who we have and we can be a sure that they got this place through battle.

To sign Colton and have some cap wiggle room there needs to be at least 1 more move; either another LTIR contract, or a cheap contract out for a pick. With Bogosain and Foote on the right side, would 1 year of Rutta bring a cheap(er) bottom pair LHD?
Hedman-Sergachev
McD-Cernak
X-Bogosain/Foote
If we lose a LHD to injury, Sergachev can move back to the left, and Bogosain move up if needed.

I know its a long shot but CBJ is shopping Domi and him and Palat have the exact same contract in terms of $ and term left. would anyone be interested in a Domi for Palat swap?

Nope,We know Pally,we know what he can do on ice,he has chemistry with Point and Kuch, and if I remeber correctly Coop said on his interview,that they like to play together and if he moved Palat to other line,5 minutes after this decision Kuch and Point would stand in front of his office and him wtf. And we dont know how Domi would look like here. So it wouldnt be a good trade

While we lost some damn good players, this roster isn't a hell of a lot different than the record year where we won all those games a few years back. While that team got swept I feel like the maturity of this team has to be taken into consideration as well. This is gonna be another interesting team. Damn it sucks being a tampa fan...:sarcasm:

Two years ago Kucherov had 128 points and Stamkos had 45 goals and almost 100 points

"Split time" usually means playing in the ECHL full-time.

Do we know how his English skills are? Orlando doesn't have a dedicated goalie coach, nor anyone Russian (at the moment). The transition to NA and its game could be rough.
Messaged one of our Prospect guys on twitter and he actually talked to Miftakov before and this is what he said":
