Of course we can upgrade still but this roster is at a point where I am happy with everyone on the ice. Hasn’t felt like this in a while. Pretty excited. Wouldn’t mind them moving Reilly or Zboril for either a depth forward or a decent pick/prospectThe ‘Are They Done?‘ edition.

My guess is they would have to move Zboril to move Reilly or picks can’t see much coming are way otherwise.Of course we can upgrade still but this roster is at a point where I am happy with everyone on the ice.

Still need an 8D though unless you’d feel comfortable with Stralman playing in the ECF or something like thatId love to see them move Zboril & Reilly strictly for money. Id giive someone Zboril if they took Reilly with him. Put some $$$ towards those bonus payments.

Yeah I’m the last guy you want to have explain the cap issues I don’t have a clue.What does this do to their cap situation next year with the bonuses. . .
Black Ace him all you want but you know we’ll need 8 and I don’t think it’s himNeely said as few weeks ago he expected Stralman back for the playoffs. fwiw.

Marchand/Bergy/Jake
Zacha/Krejci/Pasta
Hall/Coyle/Foligno
Freddie/Nosek/Hathaway
I assume something like the above - my question is - a) do you want a bit more scoring punch on that third line, maybe factoring in Hall's off season, and if a) is yes - what happens then? Nick remains in, so goes to 4th line, move Freddie to the middle and Tomas gets bumped?

Elliot Friedman on today's 32 Thoughts Podcast, explaining the Gavrikov situation:
"I have absolutely no doubts the reason why Columbus scratched Gavrikov is because they had a deal in place with the Boston Bruins. In their eyes it was more than just we will do something, there was some sort of verbal commitment there."
-Gavrikov getting impatient, wanted a deal to happen soon
- Boston views it as they never had a verbal commitment
- Had conceptual talks with Columbus
- Boston had legitimate talks with Arizona on Chychrun
- Had talks with Chicago on a McCabe/Lafferty deal
- Earlier Thursday, Columbus heard a deal wasn't going to happen
- Columbus and Boston had very different opinions on where they thought the deal was
- GMs around the league thought Gavrikov to Boston was done
I’m happy the Jackets weren’t willing to help the Bruins make that deal. What we got was better.This is where I'm at as well. The only other thing I'd want to see if the right deal came along would be an upgrade on Nosek. By upgrade I mean LHC good in the dot who can wear other teams down and play a style similar to Foligno and Hathaway.
Maybe it would have gotten done if they were willing to take cap back to make it work
They guy with the twitter screen grab that preluded the orlov deal is on this podcast...
