The fact that we could have Mark as GM and Dale as coach is terrifying...where would the accountability lie if things go wrong? That just seems like more of the same old s*** that we've had for basically the entire Jarmo era: old-head coaches in an increasingly modern game that mire the team in mediocrity.</div></div>
Could not agree more, those are my sentiments exactly when it comes to GM.
How do you feel about HC? Stick with Pascal for another year or axe him and let the new GM pick his guy? I'm not totally opposed to a more experienced and proven coach, but I absolutely believe the FO needs a young mind with a fresh perspective and ideas.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hawksguy81</b></div><div>Thanks for the insights on Laine. Puts him in a somewhat different perspective. I know there were Jets fans and even Jackets fans on this site who commented on Laine's lack of effort at times and his seemingly bad relationship w/ the media. As for his fit on the Hawks, Kurashev has been a huge surprise as the RW w/ Bedard. Doubt he's moving off that line. And Hawks still have Taylor Hall, who only got 10 games on LW w/ Bedsy before he got shelved w/ knee surgery. Gotta believe the plan is to put Hall back on Bedard's LW. So that would likely leave Laine playing RW on the 2nd line w/ Reichel on LW and Dickinson at C. Not sure the Hawks want to spend $8.7m on their 2nd line RW. And honestly, I can't see the Hawks trading away two 2nd's unless it's to move up in the draft order or acquire another 1st round pick.</div></div>
Well, he's definitely not personable with the media due to his emotionless Finnish disposition. And yes, at times he can get caught floating and looking for goals, but that is part of his game that his really improved over the last couple years.
As far as lineup fit, Laine has always preferred to play the left side and IMO would be a better fit on the top line since he's younger and can still rip the puck with the best of them. Hall is nowhere near the player he was when he was MVP and as he continues to age, he only becomes more of a middle-six player.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hawksguy81</b></div><div>With his injury history and "somewhat suspect" attitude, I can't see the Hawks being interested in a Laine trade unless it's at a bargain basement price. Laine is still a talented offensive player when he's healthy, but lately that's not nearly often enough to justify that cap hit.</div></div>
Health has been the only issue, and his injuries have been fluky, nothing chronic. He's in the NHL PAP to focus on his mental health, which is very reasonable and admirable considering all the bad luck he's dealt with, and it's no sweat to take time away from a team at the bottom of the standings.
His attitude has been great, i.e. approaching coaches to volunteer to play/learn center to help the team when all centers were hurt, taking Fantilli into his home for his rookie summer, staying in Columbus to play in a 3-on-3 offseason league.
When healthy his point production has been better than it was in WPG and his defensive game has come a very long way. He was statistically the best defensive forward on the team in 2022-23. He's absolutely worth the mild risk of a couple 2nd rounders.
Also, CHI lacks dynamic forwards and need a top line guy like Laine who can play with Bedard. They also have a surplus of picks.

Cute. The idea that no one wants to play in Columbus is a total myth. Every player is unique and does their own math on where to play. It's pretty rare for a player with a NMC to tell a team that wants to move them to just GFT.
I also understand this is a low probabilty. The premise of most ACGMs generally isn't "this is the most realistic prediction of the future." Rather, it's generally more aligned with "this is a hypothetical that is fun to consider or I would love to see happen."

Ak Bars wants him, that doesn't mean he's blowing his shot in the NHL to go back there and make half the money he would - or less - in America.
They were predominantly behind the rumors in November too. I think Vronk has friends there and when he says he misses the motherland, they think there is an opening to try to get him back. However, there is really no substantial evidence that he wants to go back. He has stated he loves Columbus and his teammates and is getting more comfortable in America.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Turbo_Duncan</b></div><div>Being 23, anything longer than a 3-year bridge will be buying RFA years, so 5 vs 6 doesn’t really matter. Also, he broke the rookie goal scoring record as a 22 year old, which was previously held by two 18 year olds, PLD and Nash, so it’s not nearly as significant as you think.
This year he’s a .5 ppg player as a 23 year old. He’s good enough to deserve some term but he’s not a top line player on a good team so he’s not getting top dollar. The deal could fluctuate in both term and AAV, Id say closer to 5x5 or 6x6, but 5x6 is not far off at all from what he’s likely to get so just settle down there partner.</div></div>
He'll be 24 this summer so anything beyond 1 year would go into RFA. This is when it is wise to negotiate a longer term deal with 4-6 years of term.
Also, Marchenko is a year older than Chinakhov, who was nearly a .5 ppg last year and is .55 ppg this year. I'm for extending both long term, but if only one of them is getting a long-term extension, it should be China.

I should have said in the post, but in my mind I thought acquiring Knight would make it easier for CBJ to be willing to move on from Elvis in the offseason.
Finding a suitor for Elvis would be a tough trade to make, but without a reasonable alternative #1 on the roster (I don't consider Tarasov that), I don't think they're going to be trying at all to move him.

Seattle and SJ swap
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CaseyFlyman</b></div><div>Sharks fans are going to (arguably rightfully) say that's not enough for Ferraro. I don't think he's the guy that makes sense for Columbus, we just need a really solid veteran 3LD and let Mateychuk pair with Severson on the 2nd pair next year.
I also don't think it makes sense to swap KJ for Wright. We've got plenty of center depth, and we have a top-end center in Fantilli in all likelihood. One of Jenner, Sillinger, or Voronkov should step in to be a good 2C, one will be a devastatingly good 3C (Jenner the goal scorer, Sillinger the defensive shutdown guy, or Voronkov the overall beast), and all 3 of those would be wasted on the 4th line. I think Wright is more of what we have: top-6 potential C's that are likely to land in the middle-6.
Johnson, on the other hand, has a good shot at being THE winger, the guy with the skill and creativity to actually drive play and score a bunch of points. The guy Gaudreau should be. Every other winger we have isn't inspiring as a 1st-liner, Marchenko Chinakhov, Laine, and Gaudreau are all great 2nd-liners and are a luxury on the 3rd line. If one of those can break out (or bounce back) and Johnson can keep developing, we should be set in the system at wing too.
The Provorov deal I'm totally fine with, I just don't think Colorado is the team to pay that this season.</div></div>
I'm as hyped as anyone about Mateychuk's future, but I think expecting him to play 2nd pair next year is a mistake. He hasn't earned an NHL spot yet. I really see Provorov staying there at least until the 2025 deadline.

Davidsons Deadlne Deals
Jackets should hold on to Provorov. He still has another year and is a decent dman. No sense in trading him, making the defense worse and setting the rebuild back. Wait until next year when he is an expiring contract. If the Jackets are too far out of it they can trade him then with only 1 year of 50% for a higher return. I think he's much more likely to bring a 1st at next year's deadline.

My preferred approach
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CaseyFlyman</b></div><div>I feel like we've talked about this before, but I just don't see Peeke as an asset at all. He should be waived, sent to Cleveland, or claimed by someone looking to take a wild chance. Provorov just doesn't seem like a fit, he's a little overrated offensively yet underrated defensively, but is likely a TDL 2025 move where Mateychuck can replace him at 2LD.
I'd love a Toffoli signing for the 3RW, and I thinkn the top-6 forwards should be Johnny, KJ, Marchenko, and Chinakhov (plus Fantilli and either Sillinger or Voronkov) long-term. Giving Laine a fresh start somewhere else feels like a good offseason move.</div></div>
Yeah, Peeke is bad, we agree on that. The issue is he isn't going to be traded or signed off waivers with that contract, and our cheap ownership isn't going to pay him almost $3m to play in Cleveland. He's good at blocking shots, he's always healthy, he puts out a good effort every chance he gets, he's just mentally slow and shouldn't be getting a bunch of minutes or opportunities to flub the puck to the other team. If he was making 800k he'd be a great 7th dman. It's unfortunate that his salary is $2m more than what he's worth, but they have the cap to pay him now rather than buy him out and have 4 years of dead money on the payroll.
I like Provy's game. He does make too many mistakes, but he's still a pretty decent 3-4 dman. I think the right coach could make a difference for him and a lot of other guys too. For me it all depends on how the team is playing next year. If they're doing well, you hang on to him (if you can sign him to a reasonable deal), if the team is struggling, he is an obvious trade piece to sell at the deadline.

I'm not sure about Roslovic, if he wants to stay there at a lower cost he might be worth resigning but I haven't seen enough to say if he's worth keeping.
Whoever takes over needs to bring some vets in at forward, even just some good defensively bottom sixers would help, too much youth in the lineup at the same time.
And probably most importantly, send Vincent back to the AHL and hire a real NHL coach ffs!</div></div>
Really they just need to replace Laine with a veteran power forward. I'd love if they could trade him for a pick this summer and sign a guy like Toffoli to a 1-year deal to play the 3rd line. Boone should be on the wing as well, then this team is much heavier on the forecheck and has plenty of veteran leadership in Boone, JG, Werenski, Kuraly, Gudbranson, Provorov, Danforth, and even some of their young guys are getting old enough to start becoming leaders.
Definitely agree that the biggest thing is a legit NHL coach. Pascal is a good guy like Lars, but also like Lars, just doesn't have a personality to inspire. They need a coach with some fire and charisma that can coach the team's mentality more effectively, rather than just where they stand on the ice while being skated around.

They will be gone in time. At least one of them will get moved this summer, but I think with their money and term they aren't going anywhere at the deadline. Bean being an RFA gives teams flexibility to use him as a rental or re-sign him if he fits well.
