If Vegas can make the cap work, the Wild will probably be shopping Brodin and/or Dumba.
What would the ask be for Dumba? He's having a really off year.
Probably a top 6 center and/or prospect.
They don't play with the speed and intensity they did in season 1. Strong 5 man fore and back check, high pressure on the puck carrier. Now that just turn up from time to time, The "Great" games this season (and really last season too) Would probably at most only be good. Without the speed and intensity the D really get exposed for what they are...Weird what’s going on with the Knights this year. They definitely lost some of their identity, need to shore up the D for sure
Cody eakin for Marc staal book itAnyone want Cody Eakin? He's *cough* really good.

Totally. Speed was their identity and they moved away from it. Also I might be higher than a lot of ppl on Bellemare but he’s a great defensive C. They’ve been bleeding goals for the last while.

The problem isn't that they are slower skating. I'd make the argument that this group of forwards is faster than the group that went to the Cup Final. Patches>Perron. Stone>Neal Stastny<Haula Stephenson>Bellemare.
The real problem is every single night there are 4 dmen that handle the puck like a grenade and one who is having an identity crisis. They get behind due to shoddy defense/goaltending and then the d can't put forwards in good spots offensively. Forwards start gripping their sticks and trying to do too much and things continue to spiral.

How they’ve done what they’ve done with the blue line they have had has always baffled me.

Something around Nurse for Tuch?
Take Barrie please. You guys have 5 seconds in the next two drafts that leafs could use.
Stecher? For either the first or hundredth time in this thread?
Hes on an expiring RFA contract, youngish guy with top 4 experience, skates well, does a lot of things well, and my only real knock against him is his size. Rafferty tearing the AHL up is making him seem like he will be able to try out in the NHL before the seasons out.
Picks, prospects or low salary guys preferred, or we can include a cap dump if salary higher than Stechers 2.325 cap hit have to be included.
You can say that for sure. After the head coach firing? I don’t know what direction they go In. The damn team is in playoff contention.
So I wish we had some knights fans in here. Why fire a coach mid season? When your team is 3 pts back for number 1 in the pacific????
What’s your offer for Manson?
