Thread: What I would do tomorrow
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Leafboy101</b></div><div>Not saying give liljegren top pairing minutes but playing with a guy like rielly is smart or maybe even muzzin but for sure play him 16-18 minutes to get him thrown right into the fire, he has improved a lot on the defensive side of the game this year which is nice and yeah it was just a thought for the forwards lines</div></div>
Muzzin would be a safe choice but him and Holl have been a solid shutdown pair for us recently. Rielly just too much of a risk taker to give him a rookie partner. Dermott seems like a nice mix of the other two lefties style so he’d be safest bet to play him with in my opinion. I’d say Marincin if i knew we’d be getting the AHL version of him but that guy doesn’t seem to be same one we get when he plays with the big club

Thread: What I would do tomorrow
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>newballcoach</b></div><div>If they are moving Kerfoot off of 3C I'd like to see him on Matthews left wing. They need some consistent performance in that spot and if Kerfoot can show well that might help jumpstart that line. Engvall can play centre as well if they need him to, but only lower down in the lineup.

Kap on the 4th line is a classic Babcock-level overreaction to one bad game. And I hope that Barrie-Reilly don't play together much, they are making me nervous.</div></div>
The third line looked so good against Edmonton I’d be hesitant to break them up right now. Could try Moore on the Matthews Nylander line if he’s ready to go, or maybe Spezza if he’s not or if they want to ease him back up to speed. It leaves Kappy on the 4th line by default which should help dominate the other teams 4th line. He just hasn’t looked good this year playing his off wing.

Thread: A little different of a seap
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ajp_18</b></div><div>We don’t want Ceci.... I’d we are going to tank you might as well let the you get players play. Plus we have 2 of our top 4 d out right now.

Columbus has no reason to want Ceci, we have plenty of d, heck we have 9 on the roster right now.... so adding Ceci does nothing for us or him. He likely wouldn’t any playing time.</div></div>
You see sometimes in trades, a rebuilding team will take on a bad but expiring contract to add assets from a cap strapped team. Again Toronto would have to add more to this trade idea. Probably a mid round pick and two prospects or a single upper tier prospect Columbus was high on perhaps. Ceci would just be a throw in. One that could be flipped again at the deadline since he’s the kind of RHD depth that teams always seem to want at the deadline. No one is saying Ceci would be the centrepiece of a trade between these two teams

Thread: Tristan Jarry - Value
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Pensfan89</b></div><div>It will all depend on what Murray does the rest of the season. Hopefully Jarry’s play motivates him to start playing better again. The pens have all the control on both players though. I think they offer Jarry a cheaper bridge deal tbh. Murray they can just QO. Especially if he doesn’t pick it up and tell him to prove that he’s worth it. If anyone offer sheets him, the compensation will be more than we’d get on him in a trade. If he doesn’t want to accept a QO then the pens could try to trade him. Or offer him a bridge deal worth around 4.5-5 million.</div></div>
I’m not really considering the idea a team would try to offer sheet either, as offer sheets are pretty rare. If Jarry continues with his play the rest of season, Pens are looking at a deal similar to what Binnington got, and say Murray signs QO. Now Pens have to think about, does desmith clear waivers again after the preseason roster cut down? Do we ride Jarry/Murray again all season and risk losing one for nothing to Seattle or trade other assets to Seattle so they don’t pick either. Personally I think Jarry was always the intended heir apparent to Fleury so in the offseason, Pens resign him and trade Murray’s rights to a team who’s looking for a starting goaltender and run a tandem of Jarry/Desmith. It’s why I’m saying a decision should be made in the offseason because their value will start to go down in trade when teams know they can’t afford to lose one to Seattle for nothing
