hell I’d take ZAR at his cap hit back before McGinnMilano is a top six forward that sucks at defense.

McGinn is significantly more useful to a contender than Milano and every NHL team obviously thinks so.Imagine giving McGinn 13 million dollars when guys like Milano sign for the minimum

ZAR is everything wrong with the game of hockey in one conveniently overpaid and often injured package.
Dude gets more than AHL minimum, which, fair play to him. But I hold him responsible as the poster boy for insanely boring worthless defensive metric-darling hockey and he should feel bad about it.Hey!

He's not overpaid, anymore!

ZAR @ $750k vs McGinn @ $2.5mil
I mean, that's a tough call to be quite honest. McGinn is a luxury that we can honestly do without. I do not believe that a 4th line of Archibald-Bleuger-Poehling would be statistically worse than Arch/Poeh-Bleuger-McGinn. It would not make a material impact on the outcome of the season but we could have an extra $1.0mil give or take to keep an extra guy or have a smidge more room at the deadline.
Both he and Bleuger are guys I would not hesitate to have on the "open to discussion" list to see if there's anything that makes sense. Like a package of POJ+Bleuger for a 3rd-4th line physical winger perhaps. Hell, I would even potentially entertain something like POJ+Bleuger/McGinn for Joel Armia with $1mil retained once of IR. Ideally McGinn in that situation.
If he's wearing an every game jersey he's overpaid.Hey!

Revolution now.If he's wearing an every game jersey he's overpaid.
he makes 10,000+ a game (82 games) or 5,000+ per day (162 days).

Well, I'm sure Leafs fans will patiently wait for him to find his game again and not try to set his car on fire.ZAR is getting his ass absolutely rammed in Toronto.

What’s one thing McGinn does well? The PK has gotten worse since he got here.ZAR is getting his ass absolutely rammed in Toronto.
Hard to say what those two have done. O'Connor has been largely miscast his whole Penguins tenure as they keep trying to turn him into a 4th line winger. Hallander hasn't had enough games.What have Hallander or DOC done to deserve being in the lineup? Or any of our young guys. None of them had stand out camps/pre-seasons other than Poulin. Archibald has played well and added some physicality to the 4th line. Poehling and McGinn have been fine. So many people want guys to play just because they're young with no other reasoning.
Poehling will likely be scratched when Blueger comes back anyways.
Well well well...... The prodigal wanker returned! Welcome back.Hard to say what those two have done. O'Connor has been largely miscast his whole Penguins tenure as they keep trying to turn him into a 4th line winger. Hallander hasn't had enough games.
he made some very nice plays against the habs.Same and honestly what has Poehling done to deserve being in the line up?
Don't wanna make it sound weird, but I think Carter and Kap are a duo because of emotional reasons. They are friends off the ice and Carter mentioned Kap used to show up as a kid to the rink a lot when his father Sami played with the Flyers to end his career.why, that could be a 3b line expensive one though, but it could provide a spark, worth of shot, but it won't happen cause for some unknown reason Carter and Kappy are designated duo
Not really sure why I'm back to be honest.Well well well...... The prodigal wanker returned! Welcome back.
I thought he had a strong season so far in his limited time. He's being asked to win draws and play a checking role. That line has done just that. Hard to really do much when your zone starts are like 80% dz.he made some very nice plays against the habs.
