Thread: Why I disagree that Yzerman overspent on UFAs

Anyone who was concerned about these contracts is just looking at them in a vaccum and doesn't understand how roster management actually works. They have all of the same played out arguments whenever some non-superstar is signed to a contract a bit out of their respective price range.

As you said, these contracts will either fall off or be a non-issue when the time to contend arrives (if it ever arrives).

Stevie gets a B+/A- from me this offseason, and it's only July.

Thread: Why I disagree that Yzerman overspent on UFAs

Holl, Chiarot, Copp…a few guys are a bit overpaid, but the roster has little dead weight overall and not overextended on term. Their cap situation appears good to me.

Yes its much better thinking players off the bottom half of your roster bring in 1st line returns. At one point Jeremy Bracco was worth Bertuzzi or Larkin.

Salvage a disaster. The problem existed when you traded, got him, and didn't want to make him key component - you gave monies to Giroux and Stutzle. Shame on you. You want me to be happy because your division competitors dictate whether you can have Boston's 25 first round pick or Detroit's 2024 and your competitor who's trying for the same playoff spots get to decide.??? What a Joke.

You know what's fun?

Ottawa got DeBrincat from Chicago. For 7th overall pick + later picks.

Detroit got Kubalik from Chicago. For free.

Detroit got DeBrincat from Ottawa. For Kubalik, nobody prospect, and a potentially low conditional first.

Holy f*cking L for Dorion, all thing considered.

Good value. Kubalik should mesh well with the Sens’ core and DeBrincat should do well with Larkin.

Thread: Yzerplan upgrade

Detroit declines. Very short sighted look as Nylander is an upgrade, but the three pieces lost mean more.

Murray = worthless in Detroit
Lafferty = worthless in Detroit
Lily = fighting with ASP for 2RHD in the future. Fighting with Ghost for 2RHD this season.

Meanwhile, the loss of Nylander hurts, but Berggren replaces Robertson behind Knies as the most exciting young player.

Soderblom is a unicorn that most likely tops out as a secondary scoring 3W; but with his hands, being 6’8, scoring touch… outside of Minten he would be arguably your best prospect.

Walman, newly inked to a 3 year deal at a great price. Currently playing 1LHD and a great partner for Seider.

No matter how much makeup you put on it, this is not good for Detroit.

Thread: Cat to DET and sign Senko

I can’t wait for this Debrincat saga to be over so sens fans can stop coping about getting more then they originally paid when Dorian has no leverage and cornered himself repeatedly.

It doesn’t even have to be to us.

Dorian cannot
1) sign Cat to 1 year without moving significant money out on guys who actually want to be there
2) trade cat to basically anyone not on the list because then he’d get rental value
3) change the fact that Debrincat is coming off a down year and wants Meier money

You have a gm who put himself in cap trouble. The player regressed and wants the bag. And he only will sign at a few locations... that is not a formula for extracting more value

It’s honestly as tiring as the year of Larkin for nothing trades

Ever notice your comments don't get a much of likes?

Holl is easily a #4 dman and if he wasn't in Toronto under the microscope he wouldn't be thought of the way we knee jerk when he's mentioned.

Good signing by Stevie Y.

Arizona definitely declines the 2nd one.
Keller would probably be a 90-100 point scorer on almost any other team.

I can't imagine he pays severson, it's gonna be someone like Gustafson or Holl for 2 million dollars for 2 years. Ned is gonna get one more shot this season and if it goes bad he's done here for sure.

Hronek will be a good pairing mate for Hughes, but man it's so much value. Looking at it like pick 18 and pick 40 for a guy whos good but also 25 and hasn't shown that he's even close to elite
