Description

Cannot wait for Cody Eakin to play second line minutes next year. He is very very very bad at hockey but hey.... he can shoot!!!!!

These scenarios will never happen obviously and I think this is an overpayment for Korpi and Savard but we overpaid Eakin and Girgs so anything is possible. Also got Justin Bailey so he can tear it up downtown at Venu again.

How could the Columbus deal be an overpay if korpisalo is better than Hutton and Savard is better than risto? Middlestat doesn't throw the value up that high.

I'm not sure, I'm still thinking mittlestadt has some decent value but I could be wrong. Also, I think GMs are still high on Risto because GMs refuse to give up on big, skilled defenseman, especially with him being only 25. Not saying Risto is good, but he still is worth more than people think to GM's. I could be wrong but we won't find out because they won't trade him.

I agree hes a bit better than people give him credit for but I would much rather have a player like Savard if I'm building a team.
