Player Discussion: Blake Coleman

[Whoshattenkirkshoes]

I'd rather keep Goodrow for a cheaper price than Coleman. That said we have a regular season ( hopefully) to see more what he's about

It's not gonna come down to that. Both guys combined will probably cost at or about what Killorn makes now. They are what they are right now

 

[Max McBolt]

Coleman is the real deal and would do great on the top 2 lines.

We have yet to see the best of him and it’s clear to me he’s a better asset than either Killorn or Johnsson for this team.

I would trade Johnsson’s $5M this offseason to make space for Cirelli/Sergachev.

Then I would trade Killorn’s $4.5 the next offseason to make space for Coleman’s new $4.5 or 5M contract.

I think that that goal by Coleman at game 3...thats why we won that game...great player)

That’s debatable.

Gross. I've seen enough of him to know he's not a top-6 player even though he tries hard to make cute plays.

Tbh I think that with Coleman we are only scrapping the surface of how good he is.
Next season he'll be fully acclimated and we will see him at his max. Great player with a lot more to offer than what we're seeing

 

[Taluss]

Hey all, just curious, not a trade offer or anything. Do you think Coleman is going to be resigned next year and not traded?

We’ve got still a year to figure that one out. Wouldn’t surprise me to see him get resigned but it depends on our other pieces up this season.

He won't unless massive paycut IMO.

 

[Hoek]

But he's already making like nothing. I think you mean just getting paid less than what he'd be worth on the market.

Exactly what you said. Coleman's next contract will be the most lucrative in his career. There's no chance we can keep him seeing our salary cap situation.

Pickles just announced wife had baby last night - so he played hockey, almost got a shorty, wife in labor; I loved watching him play for NJD, love that he's here now

Honestly he hasn't been all that great

 

[Antiramie]

Honestly he hasn't been all that great

He's stuck on a line with two offensively challenged players.

Sure he's been ok/good but he hasn't been great like everyone talks about.



He's also goners in a few weeks

 

[Hoek]

He's been really good on the PK. Too bad he isn't more of a finisher because he'd have at least 3 shorthanded goals by now.

[Felonious Python]

The game after having a baby usually makes for a huge performance.

 

[HoseEmDown]

Dude just got here a season and a half ago and already has had two kids in that time. Giving me a run for my money on the baby making train.

He just wanted that his kids will be rooting for TB from the lifes beginning
But jokes aside congrats to him and his wife, he is a really good player for us,glad he is here for now)

There is no goddamned way they'll get the same money. Goodrow has a career high of 8 goals. They're on the same line, but that is about where the similarities end.

 

[LTIR Trickery]

Someones going to gamble giving Coleman a top six role and i'm really curious to see how he does, if he can hit 20 again.

 

[Hoek]

I gotta think he wants to go to Dallas and they could use him.
