Thread: lines Hedman still out

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>matulix</b></div><div>Would you rest Heddy for the rest of the regular season as a precaution? I would definitely consider it lol. He gets injured easily and with his luck...</div></div>

I would sit him until last 5 games .. we locked into #2 seed so who cares .. I would sit Kuch and Vaz also .. DUMB to be playing guys like last year's joke!!!!! . playing for regular season stats last year still goes up my ass sideways

Thread: lines Hedman still out

I think both of these guys should be playing. Sit Johnson or Gourde .. these 4 are really the "bottom 3" forwards and should not get much playoff time anyway .. Coleman and Goodrow have been a Godsend and give us a true top 9 and 3 lines .. now if we can only get Hedmen healthy.. lost in our Colimbus massacre was fact that Hedman was hurt and gave the old college try in Game 1 and 2 but was hurt and played bad .. didnt even dress Games 3 or 4 .. he is NUMBER 1 most valuable Tampa

Thread: 84 mil Cap

If Killorn .. asst captain ... is forced to be traded I will never go to a Bolts game again .. that would mean the Gourde contract has cost us over 140 pts !!!!!! and probably the Cup .. JT Miller .. 80ish points this year and Killorn .. 60ish points this year .. for a guy Gourde who did not score between November and February .. could go down as one of worse signings from a Cap economics standpoint in history of NHL

Thread: Dream scenario waiving NTCs and cap 84 mil

OBVIOUSLY Johnson and Gourde are the big issues on team contract wise .. I like Paquette as 4C and PK and 1.5M should be digestable.. issue next year is more replacing Shatterkirk who has been a GODSEND this year .. in both durability and performance.

As side note .. Goodrow's stat line last night.. 16 mins .. over 2mins PK .. 4 shots on goal .. 6 hits .. 8/11 face offs and 65% offensive zone time .. wow .. THAT is what we traded from.. Coleman is starting to gel with Cirelli and Killorn on 2nd line .. that could be our make or break line in playoffs

Thread: Sit Tyler next game bring up ABB

Gourde just plain sucks .. ZERO doubt he just a 4th liner .. but I do agree he a serviceable 4th liner albeit 4M AAV overpaid!!!!

But Tyler Johnson is a GD disgrace .. forget his futility.. he is NOT TRYING .. rewatch game last night .. he did a matador ole and Bruins guy went right into Tampa zone and they scored as he coasted back .. and then ALSO was beaten back and was last forecheck back while coasting on 2nd goal .. boom we lose because of this piece of crap .. if he is in line up tomorrow after that film.. just forget the season and Cooper has a "strange" bond with Tiny Tyler. Curious as to what really going on.

Thread: Johnson

He is not even trying.. dogged it on both goals and literally coasted and watched and did an ole .. I'm disgusted if he dresses anymore... Johnson is epitome of why Tampa wont win crap

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BCAPP</b></div><div>Weirdly enough that wasn't Bergeron at the beginning of his career. He has 70+ points his second and third year and then a major injury.</div></div>

Bergeron had much more talent and maturity .. and why he played at 18/19. He never really played in an offensive system nor with any star wings until later in career .. truly one of best players this century .. interestingly Point has a better shot at being like Bergeron but probably not until later in career.

Thread: Johnson needs to reinvent game with Stammer IR

Given Tyler's NTC clause is mostly gone after next year season he should fetch alot this Summer .. maybe a prospect and a #2

Thread: Tampa fans- please explain why Cirelli is so valuable

Top 10 .. easy .. in Selke vote as shut down 2nd line center BUT also on a 60 pts pace while no PP time but lots of PK .. oh and he 22 years old

He needs to refine his offensive skills more next couple years .. cant count how many times he has crashes into net going too fast and finesse is a foreign word to him .. lol .. BUT the comparison to a "poor mans Bergeron" has been my assessment since his rookie year .. only 2 years ago.

It is a little odd he hasn't at least got called up fot a cup of coffee .. same as Cal Foote .. are there any earned years or contractual issues preventing this?

Thread: Kuch NMC 1July

Zero point zero chance Cirelli is moved .. well willingly .. as if there is ever a time for a RFA Term sheet .. he is it. If I am Cirelli I would consider it .. he could get a front loaded 3 year $20M contract from a contending team or even LT 7 year 50M plus deal. Why on earth would he accept a 3 year gap deal and watch Gourde and Johnson make more than him for next few years.. salt inside wound.

As much as trading Gourde with Kuch for picks would solve ALOT of Cap issues.. he is just too good to trade.. BUT I'd he half asses it defensively in playoffs again, ship him out!!!!!!!

Forum: Armchair-GMFeb 27 at 9:59

Thread: This would have been better

I actually liked both trades .. it HAD to be done as Tyler Johnson and Gourde are awful and we had zero chance in playoffs with them playing meaningful minutes.

The thing that pisses me off.. we overpaid because we wanted their cheap 2020 contracts because we gave Gourde and Johnson 60M dollars.. THAT is why JBB and Cooper should be fired if they dont win .. those 2 contracts dragging down whole organization.. and yes JT Miller is laughing.. how many points is he up to?

Thread: Cant wait to have Mac back

Agree Colburn is really struggling.. will be healthy scratch come playoff time .. I didn't think Bogosian was so bad last night .. better than Colburn and we will see on health of Rutta so bogosian could be 6thD .. but recall playoffs the benches skinny .. top 10 forwards and top 5 D will play 95% plus

Thread: How are you not hyped about this lineup

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BOLTLOVER1</b></div><div>Agree on the 12 up front as best "cup ready" top 12 Lightning has ever had .. REALLY needed size and grit and move TJ and Gourde to irrelevant as we had no Cup chance with them. The fact that this will accelerate their moves after season is great for 2020 cap. I would rather rotate sitting them and playing Verhegee but let it play out.

Still nervous on D .. Hedman goes down we are screwed just like last year. We have THREE Defenseman currently out and 2 haven't played in a. month or more .. Sergachev has improved greatly since December but hasnt done it in the playoffs.. etc. etc.. .. still lots of moving pieces on back end but yes I love the forward group and want to put a stake in the heart of shrimp approach once and for all.

Side note.. what an amazing last 10 days of NHL trades!!!!! .. ps San Jose 3rd is almost like a late 2nd .. the trade picks are probably less than 40 picks apart</div></div>

Thread: Playoffs

I like trade from Tampa side but not sure we have to send a #1 .. and dont see TJ in Ottawa .. see him in Calgary or other Western Team

Forum: Armchair-GMFeb 24 at 5:52

Thread: No more trades

Depending on health of D .. I could see a other move .. I still like the Calgary trade of TJ/Joseph for Harmonic/Janokowski .. Tampa really has to get cup this year but likely have to play Bruins in round 2 .. side note: it's a shame the top 2 teams in NHL play each other so early in playoffs.. organization has to be ready ..
