-McDavid at regular practice. Coming along fine.
-Not surprised at performance. Said Tippett has them prepared.
-Trade deadline. He said he would like to do something to help the team. "We'll see." What other teams do doesn't influence his. Depends on what the market is. 1st round pick not going for rental. Cap is an issue. You never know what young players can do until they get opportunity. Young players and role players have added depth. Has talked to 15-20 teams. Knows who is available. Some teams not sure where they are at. More expensive to trade for players with term. Dman isn't totally out of the question.
What's available, what's the cost. It isn't like there are tons and tons of guys available.
-When he came here on a 5 year deal he has to look at what developing the team looks like. Has to decide over the next three or four days what approach to take that continues that development. Until you get on the phone you talk to your people, your coach and work towards helping out the team.
Neal is 2-3 weeks. Russell is getting better but no timeline. Nygard is getting pins out. 2-3 weeks away. Klefbom is 2-2.5 weeks.
A lot of this resiliency goes to coaching staff and leadership of the team.
Puljujarvi. Not shopped him and no one has really asked about him.
Tone about Bako was very positive. Their development has helped big club.
