Friedman: Mike Hoffman could be on the move

[logik47]

Considering their lack of offensive depth, Dallas should target him.

 

[These Are The Days]

We need a god dang center!

Want Brassard back?

 

[BLNY]

Excellent goal scorer. Favorable cap hit. One year left. If he went on the market, there'd be a line of GMs around the corner.

 

[Jtown]

hopefully to be reunited with karlsson in san jose.

it was all a ploy to ruin ottawa. and it worked.

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

Faulk straight across?

 

[Dr Quincy]

Faulk straight across?

No thanks.

 

[SI90]

He’s just what the islanders need.

 

[TheImpatientPanther]

This is NOT a good idea. You don't do this unless you have Panarin on a plane coming to sign his brand new deal. And even then, hang onto Hoffman

Panarin-Barkov-Hoffman
Huberdeau-Trochek-Dadanov

Are you serious???

Make it work damn it.

Dadonov and Panarin would play together like they did in KHL but that's a sexy top 6 offense

 

[Kcb12345]

Need RD, what ya got?

Well...can't say you'll like it but Honka and Carrick are available

 

[Laus723]

People in this thread are funny, Friedman barely mentions it and it’s LITERALLY Eklund-like and they’re acting like it’s a definite. Lol

I’ll pretty much guarantee, unless it’s for both Bob and Panarin he’s not going anywhere.

 

[goeb]

Unless the Panthers get an insanely good return, I don't see why they would deal Hoffman; he's been a very effective scorer for them and has fit in quite nicely. Probably Tallon's best acquisition.

 

[780il]

What cap move would you do to accommodate this?

Bye bye Benning

Walk from Petrovic and Reider this summer

That's ~6mil, Buyout Sekera

That's ~9.5mil to do what we want.

 

[Seanaconda]

We need a god dang center!

Well true but also not Hoffman. I'm sure you could try out brassard for not much

 

[bukwas]

He's been doing quite well there. Maybe he's cooled off a bit lately but was certainly a big part of their limited success earlier.
He'll draw interest.

I was being sheepish, knew your RD was just about as bad as ours What's your D pairings currently?

 

[These Are The Days]

You're probably right. It basically comes down to my desire to see the Flo Bros get a super line

 

[Filthy Dangles]

I guess a Cap clearing move for Panarin/Bobrovsky?

31 Thoughts: Auston Matthews extension a game changer for NHL - Sportsnet.ca

Interesting blurb about Johnny Oduya in there.

29. During the 2012-13 lockout, Johnny Oduya ended up playing in Thailand. He spoke glowingly of the experience, telling the Bangkok Post he would consider doing it again after his NHL days. The 37-year-old, who played 850 games with New Jersey, Atlanta, Winnipeg, Chicago, Dallas, Ottawa and Philadelphia, is expected back in that country for games as early as Thursday. Known as the Siam Hockey League, it is for expats who live in Thailand and want to lace up the skates.

FLORIDA needs a TB-FLA playoff series and eventual winter classic/outdoor game. I think we're a year or two out from both

 

[ConnorMcNugesaitl]

To Edmonton pls and thx

2 2nds + Bear

Switch Bear to Spooner and Manning

 

[Mez]

To Edmonton pls and thx

Just make sure he doesnt look at the weather right now....-30 to -40 will scare most away lol

 

[Dabeast]

I'd be open to flipping him if, and only if, it landed a very good top 4 RHD. Especially if Panarin signed with the Panthers.

 

[McFlash97]

I would love Hoffman... but the Oilers have enough of a shit show on the ice... do you want more of it amongst wives in the dressing room ?

 

[Lion Hound]

So let's see. Cost controlled, 30 goal scorer. Why exactly is he on the move? Sounds Henky!

Lindell-Klingberg
Heiskanen-Polak
Oleksiak-Fedun

It surprisingly works for now, pretty or not, but ideally Polak wouldn't be getting nearly 20+ minutes a night
