You think? I don’t. Lots of teams wanted Nylander during his hold out. Unfortunately for Toronto he was overpaid IMO and having a terrible season. I think he gets cap dumped TBH. Mind you it’s not Chia at the helm there so who knows.

I think the problem for Carolina is their owner. He wants a team that outscores the opposition and doesn't appear to care that much about defense.

I think they would give up someone like Pesce in a deal for Nylander or Kapanen.

We got a steal on McDavid, only $100,000.00 a point...

Lol Nylander will be fine, and he'll probably top 60 points almost every year.

I remember when Erik Karlsson was not putting up points and people on here were talking like he's washed up and wouldn't jump at the chance to get him on the Oilers... talk about kneejerk reactions
Erik Karlsson and Nylander are not comparable. So you are saying he will produce 60 plus points away from his line mates if traded somewhere like Florida?

Khaira is just like every other guy we've had for the past few years. They don't know what their role is, when in reality all he needs to do is play the simple game that was getting him promoted. It's as if soon as he gets more time he tried to do more and then when he gets demoted he's still trying to do more.

He needs someone to tell him just be himself.

Look at Lucic. Finally plays the way he can/should and then the next game he scores.

I can very much concur.
And you're right. While this team is poorly constructed if players ever 'played thier role', we'd be fine.

Funny Hitch saying we need to address about 6 things and we should be fine. Wonder what those are?

1. Goaltending
2. Scoring RW
3. 1 shot shooter on the wing
4. Puck moving defensmen
5. Booming shot from the point
6. Faceoff specialist

Sounds about right.

RNH has shown he can play and lead his own line.
LD plays a "pouting" game when he's not with McDavid. Just leave that pair together.

This narrative has got to stop. Where is the evidence of him "pouting?" Or are you just parroting what you read on Twitter?

1) President of Hockey Ops

6) Ownership
