Quoting: GiggywithGibby
Based on his signing record, Tof seems to be cup chasing, not going for money. Could we write a large enough check to compensate? Maybe, but it wouldn't be consistent with what he's doing.
I think the Ducks can score 5v5 okay, and with Cutter and Z in the roster full time that should resolve a lot of those scoring woes, but we just need to stop getting penalized. We're spending over 14 minutes per game down a man, the next closest team is over a full minor penalty less, per game.
I would get a shutdown RHD to mentor Mintyukov and send it for the season.
I disagree with you on this one (which is rare). We’re a bottom 3 NHL team when it comes to scoring, we could use a new addition up front beyond rookie Gauthier. My dream scenario would be overpaying Stammer for a 2 year deal so we get the production and much needed leadership with minimal term to avoid any impact 3 years from now when we have to pay Zegras, Minty, Leo, and Zellweger
I do agree with a RD though. Pesce please 🤞
Also down to shop Gibson. I’m confident in Dostal. If we could flip him for something worthwhile and get the $6.4M off the books for that third year in particular I’d be game
Beyond that, I’m in favor selling Lundestroms rights this offseason as well if it returns anything. His point production is just too low, even for the bottom 6. Maybe a Gibson + Lunde for Holtz based trade?
As far as our lines, I’m very much against shifting Zellweger to the right side, and I think Luneau should season in the AHL for a year. D lines:
Minty - Pesce 🙏
Zell - Gudas
Lacombe - Fowler
