Proposal: Rumor and Proposal Thread: Mod warning 793

I guess no real harm him in keeping him here for depth and veteran presence.
At the very worst we lose Pitlick on waivers.. whoop D doo..

Or purcell for tanev and watch the nucks boards splode.

Yeah he's fine for depth I just don't see how he's gonna work under tmacs gameplan.

Rather risk Purcell to waivers and keep Pitlick.

 

[joestevens29]

Ej signs extension in COL. No terms yet, but one guy off the UFA list for next season.

Dont think Pitlick has looked that great ... If Purcell is waived it just moves Korpi to 3rd line and makes Gazdic and Klinkhamer fight for 4th line RW position.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Seabrook and Byfuglien to follow sooner or later.

 

[Philly85*]

Seabrook yes for sure, but Buff I'm almost certain will walk unless he's willing to take a pay cut. People in the Peg seem okay with this being his last year there.

Would love if somehow the Oil could bring in Burns and Buff and next season. Be tough to work cap wise of course, but I'd still love it. 1 of the 2 would also be fine.

I think they trade him at the deadline if they can't get him signed and he ends up extending with whichever team acquires him. I really doubt he makes it to July 1.

 

[Soundwave]

I kinda hope that Reinhart, Nurse, etc. develop to the point where we don't need to be signing a Buff to a massive contract.

We already have Sekera and Klefbom locked up long term, you have to be careful how many long term deals you're throwing around.

 

[McOilbleeder]

Wouldn't be surprised to see Seabrook and Byfuglien to follow sooner or later.

It'll be interesting to see what the Jets do with Byfuglien. Trouba, Myers and Morrissey is the future of that D. They also have Enstrom who is quite good.

Do they really invest what going to be needed for Byfuglien (6M+) long term, or trade him and shore up other areas of the team.

I'd prefer Burns. Burns seems like a good guy all around, likes McLellan and is an offensive d, something we don't have other then Schultz.

Sekera - Burns
Klefbom - Schultz
Reinhart - Nurse

Long term we don't have the cap room to keep that group.

Sekera (5.5) Burns (6.5)
Klefbom (4.1) Schultz (5.5)
Reinhart (4) Nurse (5)

Is probably what you're looking at which would break our cap.

If Burns is coming in, it likely means a guy like Schultz would be going out.

Burns would be a place holder for a couple years till one of the young guys move up.

Reinhart and nurse won't be making that kind of money for a few yrs....and that's if they develop into top4 guys

 

[Soundwave]

That's fine and all, but I don't think his agent will be OK with him just taking a 2-3 year deal, so if he's here, you're going to have to commit a long term salary on an extension for him.

 

[Soundwave]

If Klefbom got paid after less than a full season in the league ...

 

[Rafters]

If Klefbom got paid after less than a full season in the league ...

Klefboms cap hit is still another yr away....nurse and Reinhart have 2-3 yrs of entry level cap hits .....

So we are looking at 3ys from now for Reinhart and 4 yrs for nurse before looking at there 2nd contracts affecting the cap.......that's if all goes well in the development of these prospects

Then you trade him?

I'd swap Burns for Schultz all day long...

We're going to have to make a decision on Schultz here at some point. He's going to want a long term deal after this season.

If you sign him to that, then you have Sekera, Klefbom, and Schultz tied up long term, there isn't really the luxury left to bring another $6-$7 million dollar guy back there.

 

[McOilbleeder]

We're going to have to make a decision on Schultz here at some point. He's going to want a long term deal after this season.

I think that's going to be a big decision to make next season.

Do you sign him to a 5.5-6M/yr deal if he puts up 50 points and plays sub-par defense?

 

[Mr Positive]

Do you sign him to a 5.5-6M/yr deal if he puts up 50 points and plays sub-par defense?

I think the extension would be made under the assumption that he can duplicate that performance. We're also not looking to break the bank on D men.

I could see a long-ish deal at 5.0 AAV

 

[SK13]

Burns would be a place holder for a couple years till one of the young guys move up.

The truth is we have no "young guy" in Burns' mold. None of them are going to have #1PP ability or play the right side.

It's kind of why finding an offensive, puck moving right-side D for our top pairing is going to be the biggest priority moving forward.

That, a legit #1 goalie and a top 9 power forward is my wish list right now.

**** no. the kid's numbers will be inflated no matter what. Will always be a complementary player in every sense of the term.

Again... **** no
