Description

Just bored. Don't think this is a particularly good option, but I've got nothing new to say about trades, and UFA options seem pretty unexplored thus far.

Andrew Copp is almost certainly someone on Ottawa's radar imo. I'm personally not a believer in his offensive boom the last couple of years, but Ottawa might be, and Copp at very least has versatility and having a strong faceoff guy on Timmy's wing would be ideal.

Perron I like a lot, on a short term deal. Very well rounded offensive player who brings more Stanley Cup experience. Don't really love even going to 3 years, but I don't think it's a deal breaker.

Forget Copp. Only Perron is great . Joseph can play top 6 as long as he’s the 6th best option in the top 6

Formenton is going to be much better than Copp makes no sense to sign him, and he is not a top 6 player

Agree about Copp, but I gat shake the feeling that he'll end up here. Such a Dorion guy

on 3rd line, it be fine but not on 2nd line, Formenton has earned the right to play with Stu next season. and not for 5M per, way too much ne never had more than 40 points in a season untill this season.

Formenton 3rd line. Joseph 2nd line. Brown 3rd line. Forward upgrade 2nd line. Simple

I think Perron will re-sign back with the blues. He took less money the first time to come back so I think he would do the same again

If we're retaining 50% on Connor Brown, we should get a second as well.

You're probably right, but who knows. If he leaves on a 1-2 year deal he probably has enough left in the tank to come back to St Louis for a 4th time, which has gotta be some kind of record.
