honest truth about fixing team
Not that the roster is bad - but the philosophy is a bit confusing to me. Malkin did prove that he is still a 2C. He's also proven that he's still an elite playmaker, but his goal scoring has dropped off a bit. And Yagers best aspect is arguably his shot. So it seems a bit backwards to ask them both to play to the opposite of their strengths as opposed to playing to them. 2C is also a lot of responsibility and a big role for a guy who might not even make the roster at this point.
"For a long time it's always been the "wingers" fault for no production on the 2nd line". We only have to look one season into the past for this not to be the case - the 2nd line produced well with Zuker and Rust/Rakell. And underperforming wingers did hurt the 2nd line this year - I hope you aren't trying to put the blame on Malkinas opposed to Smith and Rakell underperforming. And 2 seasons ago Malkin was playing with Heinen and Kapanen haha. Sometimes the blame is put correctly on the people that deserve it.
Overall I think it's a solid team though - I like the idea of going for depth. There's probably room to make it even better with that extra cap space. Maybe on a 2LD and bump Graves down? Or go after Stephenson/Monahan to strengthen the center group? Just spitballing

And Carolina will re-sign JG this coming summer. JG would be crazy to sign with the oldest team in the NHL. Who'll be heading for a major rebuild in the next 3-4 seasons.</div></div>
Pretty sure the report was $50mil total - 6x8.33. It also didn't mention any laughing. This ACGM is 6x10 - that's a significantly better offer.
You can't just say "CAR will re-sign Guentzel" as if it's a fact lol. There has been no report that he is even interested in signing there. And CAR has several guys that are due salary increases. I agree Jake back to the Pens isn't likely - but acting like it's impossible or he's definitely signing in CAR just isn't accurate

Have you talked to KD and he said he wouldn't offer him a contract in the offseason? Have you talked to Guentzel and he said he wouldn't return to the Pens?
Yes, it's unlikely, but just because a guy turns down a rumored $50mil doesn't mean he'll turn down $60mil

I'm good with the Stamkos/Monahan/Joshua signings.
Not the biggest fan of the goalie decisions though. And I think you desperately need to spend that extra cap on some kind of D upgrade.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Xqb15a</b></div><div>Oh I was talking about Georgiev not Jarry sorry for the confusion. And this is all applicable to Georgiev not Jarry, Breaking sticks, accidentally hitting teammates with his stick, literally letting in a the odd super soft goal. All that and he has been horrendous his last 5 outings, yeah the pk has been bad too, but he gave up 22 goals in his last 5 outings and just looked awful. He really hasn’t been good all year and the team did him no favors running Prosvetov as the back up for half the season over playing him particularly in November December and the first part of January playing him 30 times in that stretch. His QS% and GSAA stats I like to look at are career lows the GSAA is an atrocious -12.1. Good talk my friend!</div></div>
Oh haha - that would make more sense. I should've known when you were talking about seeing the games in person. That's my bad.
Wow, I didn't know that about Georgiev. I mean obviously I know he's struggled, but not al the details. I appreciate the info. That's definitely unfortunate to hear, but at least your team in front of him is amazing enough to carry him to the postseason. Good luck in the playoffs - and yeah good chat!

Offseason 1 2024
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Xqb15a</b></div><div>I mean honestly the answer is going to go one of three ways. 1) Georgiev rights the ship and takes them on a deep run then it’s all moot. All he really has to do is be .900 as COL is the highest scoring team and 5v5 team this year. 2) Georgiev stumbles, Annunen comes in does what he has done so far in the regular season and takes them on a deep run and the solution long term has been solved. 3) they both struggle and the Avs are out in the first or second round and they are looking for a new starter and then anybody including Jarry is an option. Honestly I’ve seen a fair share of games (perk of work the seats are exceptional) in person and he has just look beat after he gives up a goal, and his antics down the stretch are not well received by the team as a whole.</div></div>
I saw, specifically in March, some times where he looked defeated or frustrated after a goal if thats what you're referring to. But the Pens were basically the worst defensive team in the league that month - so personally I'll give him the pass on that. Also there was a stretch where a ton of the goals hit off their own players, or defenders were running into Jarry - I think part of it was just shock.
Not sure what you mean by his antics and not being well received though?
I'm not saying Jarry is some elite goalie by the way. I've always had him in that 10-12 range give or take. Whether he's worth the upgrade to a team based on cap hit and what assets you have to give up - that's the million dollar question. I totally understand if people say they'd rather just give a 2mil goalie a shot and see how it goes. Especially for a good team like COL

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Xqb15a</b></div><div>Honestly COL is on the verge of an existential crisis in goal. Georgiev has been horrendous, in his last 5 games he is 1-4 didn’t make it out of the first period in one game and gave up 22 goals. Yeah the d has struggled mightily but COL has to have at least a steady goaltender that is available and gives them .900 goal keeping. Honestly no answer is really off the table, but one thing that can’t happen is they take on a bigger cap hit than Georgiev. That’s my two cents at least.</div></div>
Yeah I gotcha - that's what we're here for haha - just throwing out our opinions. Love the conversations.
I mean Jarry would kind of fit that bill though no? If you give the guy average defense he'll drop like a .915. Sure he's not perfect, some injuries and consistency things - but that's what separates the elite from the good. His games started would say that overall he's still a relatively available goaltender as well - probably mid 50 starts a year.
I definitely understand the cap hit point though. Just because a guy is an upgrade doesn't mean he's worth it. That's why I said I'm not saying COL would accept the trade.

You would know that A LOT better than me haha - although looking at their numbers even their struggles are significantly better than the Pens. I'm just saying for the season overall - they've clearly been a lot better. Which would mean Jarry would probably fair a lot better behind COL D than PIT. Not saying that would make them accept the trade though.

I'm fine bringing in Tanev. I'll pass on Edmundson though - they can just throw POJ there or something. Combine Edmudson and Teuvo money and sign two forwards for like 10mil and I think we'd be in a much better spot.

I know the LD market is slim but I don't think I'm comfortable giving him that contract.
Not the biggest fan of the goaltending move either. Traded Jarry for a minimal return and then paid a lot for what is maybe a marginal upgrade, but also more expensive.

It's a tough call. I think you need some kind of 3rd line forward upgrade - but if Graves can't figure it out there's also a 2LD need.

I like the roster. The goaltending scares me a little bit - unless Blomqvist has some Matt Murray type start to his career. Which I guess could be possible.
I doubt Pickering will be ready, but that's kind of nitpicking. Can always through POJ there or something. Would be amazed if Stolarz gets that little money - but again I'm nitpicking haha
