Thread: Mo and Razor
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caboose119z</b></div><div>Kasper at LW2? There's nobody else to put there. I said we likely needed another top 6 forward but probably couldn't afford it in the description. Who would you put there?

Kane not with Cat? The Cat, Larkin, Raymond line was our best line all season. Kane doesn't need Cat, or did you not watch the games? Notice Cat woke up when they were put back together to end the season?

Veleno at 3C? 3rd and 4th lines are interchangeable.

Perron re-signed? 7th on the team in points and an incredible leader. Mentioned in the description i was hesitant regardless. I wouldn't go higher than $2x1.

Chiarot 1D? Walman 3rd pair? Seider performed better overall this season with Chiarot than he did Walman, or were you not watching? If Walman recovers from his injury and returns to form I agree, he goes back to first pair, but he was a bad defender this season for one reason or another.

Husso starting? Lyon should start, correct.

Berg nowhere to be found? Have you not been paying attention? He doesn't have a future with this team.

And Roy gets atleast $6M. If so target Chatfield or another RHD.</div></div>

Kane doesn't need Cat, but Cat needs Kane.

3rd and 4th lines are not interchangeable, at least not on good teams.

Perron is terrible, and will only be a year older.

What makes you think Berg doesn't have a future with the team? At the very least he will be traded, but not given up on for nothing.

Thread: If Mo and Ray take bridge deals
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JoeROFLCOPTER</b></div><div>I always interpreted bridge deals as a "prove-it" deal or a deal you make out of cap restrictions. Maybe the bridge deal is forced by the agent. More often than not, signing a bridge deal is not out of choice by the team.

The team is bottom 5 in almost every performance metric; they're overachieving significantly due to a high shooting percentage mixed with a lucky bout of goaltending. If Lyon was average during his stretch, this team would have been eliminated a few weeks ago. It is also quite clear this team depends on Larkin for more than just his skill -- he's a leader. When he went down, the team crumbled. Lalonde has no control of the locker room. He is no more than a bridge coach.</div></div>
