I don't think Tuch is untouchable for them. At any rate, Seravalli lists Vegas as a team that is not interested or doesn't have the assets or something else stopping them from completing the deal.

With Winnipeg listed as a possibility because they've apparently kept Laine and Roslovic to include in a package specifically for Dubois, I could see us being out if it's that high price.

Laine + Roslovic for PLD + makes so much sense.

Tuch was their best forward in the bubble, he's going to get better and he's locked up under 5m until he's 30. This kid is the next Blake Wheeler. Even if you're not that high on him, he's on a steal of a contract for much longer term than Marchessault and Pacioretty.

I'm actually high on Tuch but young 1C's cost and I knew Vegas would have to give something up that hurts.

Although saying that I have kept hearing the Scheifele comparisons with Glass that haven't materialized yet, even getting sent down now in favor of Kolesar. (Texier is doing well right now also, to add another punch to us. At center no less.)

With the fact I never wanted to trade Suzuki, even at the time, so seeing him grab a point seemingly every game while making solid defensive plays frequently has made my patience a little more strained on that front.

There's still time but I don't ever see Glass becoming Scheifele now but he looks exactly like Giroux to me. Or a young Backstrom.

Laine + Roslovic for PLD + 3rd.

The hell are Winnipeg doing? Oh well, when this covid is over, the Western Conference will be weaker thanks to that deal.

They found out in a hurry Stastny isn't a 2C anymore.

@Vegan Knight and I contacted Jarmo & Chevy to get this deal done.

Haha good thing this wasn't available to them three months ago when we got that 6.5 off the books.

Not sure if this is the right thread, but I just wanted to say, I listened to Mark Stone on Spittin Chiclets yesterday, and wow what a guy. Listening to him talking about getting the C in Vegas and how emotional it made him. Just a solid guy, solid leader, you guys could not have picked a better Captain.

Not NHL, but sad to hear that Timur Faizutdinov has died after taking a puck to the head. Tragic end to what looked like a routine clear/dump.
