The Pooch Report
For a team that needs an offensive weapon that can drive play by themself alone.... Anderson does not scream that type of player to me. He seems like so much of what we already have already.
Colorado has two I would be interested in should we strike out on Forsberg, but again it would be for the right price- and neither of them are Kadri.
Nichushkin broke out in a big way (25/27/52 in 62 which is 33-36-69 P82) and Andre Burakovsky (22/39/61 in 80) had a good season- both of them have good size and don't turn 28 until the turn of the calendar year.
They both had career-highs in shots and really settled in with the Avalanche this year, and they might have to let one go....
I like Valeri's RH shot a little more...
Don't know I would offer either of them 6 million though, and certainly not for 6 years. Maybe 5/25 for Nichushkin and 4/20 for Andre, but definitely in a rather weak market; they are two of a few I would have interest in
Agreed. Lee is the perfect candidate for a move if the team truly wants to get younger and faster. However, doesn't Lee have a no move till the last two years of the contract? Even then it reverts to limited move contract I think. I don't see how Lee can be moved.I’d still be complaining . You talk about the Isles need to get younger and faster to keep up with how the league is changing. I don’t disagree with that premise. Which is why I would start by moving Lee’s contract. Nothing would send a louder message that change is needed by moving the captain.
