Thread: Whats Ducharme talking about

Caufield can only play top 6, because of his physicality and size. He can’t play fourth line minutes, unless you want him to get a career ending injury. He’s like Kailer Yamamoto. He also can’t play bottom 6 because of his physically and size.

Thanks for the clarification! That sounds like a lot of boxes, and cards! How many cards is it per pack?

How many are in a pack? If it’s just one, that’s a lot. Also, I only collect Tim Hortons hockey cards, so I’m not familiar with some of the wording... what’s a Blaster, and Program of excellence? Does it just have a different look to the card?

Thread: How far do they go

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SevenLeg</b></div><div>I think it's just harder for him because of the amount of changes taking place on the Islanders roster, and the presence of Varlamov. Shesterkin gets to play on a more regular basis, so it's easier for him to find some consistency.</div></div>

Maybe you are right... Don’t get me wrong, he’s good, but I don’t think he’s having a solid consistent season. They do like to change their lines, and roster so that’s a possibility!

Just games he has been playing. He will be hot, then cold game after game. Also, after talking with a isles fan he agrees. He’s having a decent year, but I wouldn’t trust him as the starter. Not nearly as good as Shesterkin so far that’s for sure!

Thread: How far do they go

Defence could use some work. At least one top 4 defence man is needed. The goaltending is questionable, because Mrazek is okay, but Sorokin is off to a shaky year. That could hold them back big time. Defence wins championships, so without that one guy they need, I would say with that goaltending first round exits.

He probably wants to make it equal, instead of putting all of the best on one team. Like if they were separated Into two teams, and they had to play against each other.

Thread: Future

I would be shocked if Brandon Saad accepted 2M for 2 years. 42GP, 14G, 9A, 23P with Colorado. He was making 6M this year.

Forum: Armchair-GMThu at 1:42 pm

Thread: Would you consider this if you are Tampa

Tampa should do it for their futures! Also Seattle, or Detroit should take it as well. If you look at Tyler Johnson’s stats, he isn’t a bad player, just significantly overpaid!

Tyler Johnson;
3 years left at 5M M-NTC.

Last year compared to this year:
65GP, 14G, 17A, 31P. 49.01FO%.
41GP, 7G, 11A, 18P. 55.23FO%.

2 late picks, is definitely reasonable for a team with cap to take on Tyler Johnson. To me after looking at his stats, he looks like a good third liner, that shouldn’t get more than 2.5-3M. What you suggested is absolutely reasonable, and both sides should take a look at it!

Thread: I dont trust Holland

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CD282</b></div><div>Nurse was very good before Barrie, he'll be very good after Barrie.

Even just looking at 5v5 scoring, which is the only area of the game where Barrie would impact Nurse positively, and you'll see what I mean:

2017-18 to 2019-20 (3 seasons)
1. Carlson: 100
2. Josi: 99
3. Burns: 95
4. Karlsson: 83
5. Rielly: 83
<strong>6. Barrie: 78</strong>
7. Hedman: 77
<strong>8. Nurse: 77</strong>

This year, with Barrie alongside for most of the season:

1. Carlson: 22
2. Theodore: 20
3. Girard: 20
4. Chabot: 20
<strong>5. Nurse: 19</strong>
6. Chychrun: 19
<strong>7. Barrie: 18</strong></div></div>

I understand, but Barrie is a good partner for Nurse though. They work well together, and Nurse is playing like he never has before! I hope he can keep it up, because he’s looking very impressive.

Thread: If we drafted right

Okay, so take out every signing, and players you drafted after when you would’ve drafted those players. Who knows what your team would look like after that. To the best of my knowledge, you wouldn’t have Anthony Beauvillier, and Matthew Barzal as well, because we traded you the 1st, and 2nd which one turned into Barzal, and you traded the other one for a different pick, and got Beauvillier.

I don’t like this concept, because you can do this for every team.

WHAT DID YOU SAY ABOUT JESSE PULJUJARVI??!! Haha, I really like Puljujarvi, so that’s why I said that. He can shoot on net, and he’s getting there. Just have more patience, he’s working well with McDavid! 90 shots on net in 41 games, 9 goals... that’s pretty good for a guy that just came from Finland to play straight in the NHL.

Thread: I dont trust Holland

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PerpetuallySad</b></div><div>Barrie is a black hole defensively, and makes McDavid less effective. Why would you want to resign him? He’s played 79% of his TOI with mcdavid or drai and he literally makes them less effective, the power plays worse than last year. He’s kinda useless. Bear is our best two way defender on the team.. trading him at his age an cap hit would be a awful</div></div>

Because Barrie is good.... he is very good with Nurse. In my opinion, that’s a main reason why Nurse is doing this good! The PP is worse, because nobody’s PP is that good multiple years in a row, plus we are only playing Canadian teams, so we wouldn’t be playing a bunch of the bad american teams. Bear is not our best 2-way defence man. Nurse is by far.... he is definitely a 2-way defender! If Klefbom was back, he would be our best 2-way by far! When he’s healthy he’s very good.

For a top 10 center, that’s what I would want to start with. You are not even a real life GM, so I know for a fact that you don’t know what they think about value. So you can’t say they know it’s too much.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PerpetuallySad</b></div><div>I agree, I did like the Koekkoek & Kahun signings at the time, I pushed hard for both of them on here. I worry about his ability to judge a players value without 97/29, Kassian is a dud without them and Chaisson potting on the powerplay got him his PayDay. I don’t wanna resign Barrie when bouch has the oppurtunity to be a huge bargain with his ELC. But I’m freighted he will sign Barrie strictly because of points</div></div>

I agree with Kassian, and Chiasson. However, Kassian has the ability with the right players to play very good! I wouldn’t mind getting Barrie signed only if he doesn’t get extremely overpaid. With that being said, I don’t like Bear, and Jones so I wouldn’t be sad if they both got traded and we also resigned Larsson.
