Quoting: Peds
you wouldnt be happy with this offseason? markstrom deal is rich but other than that, i think it's p solid
No I'd look in a totally different direction, other than G-
-Markey is probably a 2nd and a mid prospect who is blocked from making the team as a skater, add for retention. No way a 1st with all that other stuff either. Its a good move in that in my mind bc of the extra yr gives you a chance to let Daws/Schimd backup in year two after Allen leaves in FA (or not!!!). If CGY is adamant move onto next team for a move.
-Bastian has value, not much, but some, its not just futures IMO
-I like Hagues size but I think we need to consider a #1-2 LHD like
Hanifin in FA, backup plan is
Skjej
-Siegenthaler was concerning this year (loved him last year), if they think he is going in tghis direction I am concerned, he has a 10 team NTC starting in 2024-25. If Fitz doesnt like what he sees trade for
Pettersson. I am no fan of Bahls, he has played better but I am done with a 6'6 240 guy who rathe r than hits x checks and gets caught doing so!
- Mcann is too much money tied up 4 more @ $5M. I'd try and grab a bunch of UFAs as
@DGIBB10 and
@NHLFAN10506 have noted on these boards who can add some physicality/shot blocking, faceoff to replace MM and speed (
Sturm in SJ). I think 2-3 players out of this list of names like
Fogele, Trenin, Duhaime, Lafferty, Olivier to redo 4th line and 1- 3rd liner in WF. Would like
Ross Colton but he's probably not avail and a bit pricey too.
Beck Malenstyn is an intriguing player too. Use some of the players you had in the Markstrom trade to pkg for the guys in
bold/itals
EDIT O'connor from Pitt was fun to watch, playing for home state might be worth a look too
Most importantly for me is to convince Pitt to move on from Sullivan. Fire Green midway through a game if you have to!
Oh yeah money, I didnt even consider it!
Thats what I would do, but have not put much thought into it!
