This is said every summer when Bergevin does nothingOMG THE SEASON STARTS TOMORROW!
in japanese, Aho means Idiot and Tensai means Genius
Thats exactly the type of contract I want to avoid...
This is said every summer when Bergevin does nothing
With the exception of having to trade Pacioretty last year , name me one late summer pick up Bergevin has made to improve the team?
Doug Murray? Semin?
So yes the season could start tomorrow. This is the team at training camp
...what?
I wouldn't offer sheet a winger.
To pay what you need to get them, plus the compensation, I don't think they impact the game enough for it. 4x1st for Marner, then paying him Connor McDavid money, would be asinine. Especially when we wouldn't go higher for Aho and really give Carolina something to think about.
There are several wingers I would offer sheet. For example, I would offersheet the hell out of Kucherov if he were RFA at the moment. Or Gaudreau. Some wingers do affect the game quite a bit.
I wouldn't OS Gaudreau at all.. and obviously Kucherov would be matched, so that's a moot point.
To get a player on an OS requires too much money and too much compensation, that to me, it's only really worth it on someone like Aho, but we didn't go far enough in.. we dipped our toes in.
For the guys available.. I wouldn't OS Marner or Laine.. I'd rather do it to Werenski or Provorov, but I don't think anyone is really availabe on an OS this year now that Aho is secured.
I wouldn't OS a winger. ever.

I'm surprised that some UFA's are yet to sign. I thought by now, Gardiner, Dzingel, and Ferland would be off the market.
Well heck. I googled those words a week ago and it came up as some Japanimation character and I just assumed I was some out of touch old guy.Brilliant title.
The phonetic rendition that is Aho in English is no less flattering.
habs need real top 6 players, not these maybe's....Laine or star player, yes it will cost...but the time is now
