Quoting: Whalers12
Slight overpay for Jarvis yes, but it's worth it in the long run and remembered for his next deal. Pay them young, not when they're old. Guentzel will get more than 9.5 on the open market, not an overpay at all. A right handed 2C is much more valuable to Carolina than Necas, Carolina even tried Necas at center in the past. The guy can't win faceoffs.... Andersen needs to go to give Kochetkov a chance. We have two goalies that are the same, one is old, one is young. Make a move in that case. FUS is a right wing, Nadeau is a left wing. Both are good, but Nadeau is more of a skill player where FUS is more of a 2 way player. That line will fit better being a 2 way line. Let Nadeau develop with top 6 mins in the AHL where he can play his role (kind of how you're supposed to develop players). The fact you said Chatfield "SUCKS" shows your knowledge. I respect your opinion, but at the same time we have to be realistic and you're just not.
Guentzel might get 9.5 on the open market, but the entire point of keeping him in Carolina would be to get him at slightly below that. 8.5-9 is much more realistic.
If you want to talk about realism, Jarvis is getting bridged, so this 8x8 overpayment is completely out of the question.
While a RH2C would be more valuable than Necas, Pinto isn't that. He's not a 2C, it's why he was playing as a 3C in Ottawa. He's Jack Drury with better linemates.
FUS is a RW, but you've put him here on a line with Drury, and Drury played RW this year, not LW. So Drury goes back to RW, Nadeau gets his shot since he's NHL ready.
Chatfield sucks. If you watched the games this postseason, I don't know how you can have a differing opinion. This man can skate like the wind, but he's SO bad everywhere else
