Have you seen the gm? not a guy who exactly makes moves... ever. I am honestly not sure his worth and if i were the devils I would prefer someone more proven

Oh i totally agree that is what they will do. Gets real awkward making a team and putting prospects on the 4th line lol. What will they do with celebrini?

I feel like if Stamkos is signing with Buffalo he might demand much more given their lack of playoff experience and readiness.
Even if he is 34, he's still a lethal addition to any team's top 6, and is more than likely going to receive insane offers if he does hit FA

They need to make some Coaching Changes, atleast to the Assistant Coaches if they want to keep Granato who just signed a extension.

Well don't trade Samuelsson for starters, would think DeMelo is going to be looking for a raise.

Why is Samuelsson included in the 1st trade, I would use a different asset.

Flyers have 0 interest in trading Farabee, so you would have to really overpay to get him + Hart.

My Buddy said he is playing with a Shoulder Injury right know. Has been for a few Weeks, think they should drop his minutes and let him find his game and maybe his Health a bit.
Really surprised they are not giving R. Johnson more of a chance. He played well with Dahlin and maybe could help with getting Samuelsson back up to speed taking some of his minutes.

UPL and Hart are basically the same...But, you are giving Hart $6mm....Hmm.

And then trading our top-pairing D-man....good luck to Hart there.

So it's basically 3 former/future firsts for Farabee? I mean...huge overpay.

I dont think you are wrong, i would think term will play a role but not too many contenders can add a big cap hit, maybe if nylander leaves he signs a 1 year deal there. more than likely he will return to tampa tho
