Thread: Next year if we get Nylander
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Lancebmx</b></div><div>Only bad one was Chiarot. Husso was great for us last year. Things fell off near the end and we were dressing almost half our AHL team. No goalie is surviving that. Holl played over 20 minutes a night in Toronto and we got him for not a high dollar amount and only 3 years. I think with the right partner he will be just fine. Giving up on Cossa after his first pro season? They played him in the be ECHL cause they had a good team and the Griffins were trash last year. He had a rough start but finished really strong and helped his team make the western finals. He likely backs up in Grand Rapids this year. I personally wasn't a fan of the Cossa trade at the time but he still has high potential, he is only 20.</div></div>

Goalies are hard to predict anyway. Everyone remembers Jim Carey, Vezina winner at 22, out of the league at 24.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Kyle_Okposo_Lover</b></div><div>Tbh probably better to spend money on a goalie imo. Sign Hellebucyk for like 4x8 which will work well with Augustine’s ELC. (Unless you still believe in cossa but at this point I’m a little bit higher on Trey)

Also kinda amazing how good this team would be if the Chiarot, Huuso and Holl deals didn’t exist lol


EDIT: could definitely see Huuso having a bounce back year but that deal was always bad no matter how you look at it</div></div>

Agreed! Definitely better to spend the money elsewhere. Preferably on a 2RD until Sandin Pelekka comes over.

Husso was good until he got overworked last year, and didn't get much help from the defense. Not the best deals on Husso, Holl and Chiarot, but they aren't that long term either. Should go fine with the prospect line and if the cap increases.
