Thread: totally unserious organization
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Stadel</b></div><div>Houser is/was an echl goalie so no. My point is most of the league that isnt under an internal cap, gives their AHL goalies 1 way deals. Its an illustration of their penny pinching. And if success in rochester matters, then UPL being there is a not a good reason for cheaping out on the extra few hundred K. Because UPL was not good in roch.</div></div>

Ok but who has come along where they have needed to spend since the date you cited as covid? Like would you rather them pay thompson 12 mil than 7? they are about to pay dahlin 10 plus, power 7-8. Just because they havent spent to the cap does not mean they arent willing to? I am just happy they arent doing stupid moves like the sens who expedite the rebuild only to have it blow up in their face a year later. Detroit went out and signed chiarot, husso, perron, they still finished behind the sabres. Like do go out and spend to the cap if you dont have too.

Thread: totally unserious organization
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Stadel</b></div><div>Yes, and theyve already spent near it. This is how it goes. They bring back everyone who is okay signing 1 year deals. Then sign some low level ufa's to pretend like they tried to do something. This team couldve made the playoffs last year if they did anything other than sign Comrie and ilya lybushkin. What is the point in having an analytics department if they arent going to try for meaningful moves?</div></div>

What meaningful moves are you referencing? trading 7th overall for debrincat only for him to demand out the next year? There is 14 mil in cap space now with it to jump like 9 million next year. the analytics staff has done incredible identifying prospects. reino for levi and kulich, jack for tuch krebs ostlund greenway, risto for rosen hagg and 38th overall this year. I like what they got in return for each of those. There is no point in them going out and spending to the cap and then having dahlin, power, mitts, quinn, peterkas contracts come up and not have space.

Thread: I could see Jarmo doing this lol
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Indy</b></div><div>This right here is what people don't understand and why these two trades were made. Not only injuries protection because these two Dmen are noted for their durability but their 3rd line had nobody that could drive out of the neutral zone. First line had JG, second line had Roslovic and KJ, 4th line had ERob. Who on the 3rd line can move through the neutral zone with Gudbranson on the ice? THAT'S WHY Sillinger had such a miserable year then badly tanked his confidence. With Texier there that should immediately help that situation at a minimum.

Right now that's the biggest true issue with CBJ and their centers. None of their centers outside Roslovic had a good neutral zone presence but he also is so inconsistent and makes terrible hockey IQ plays is why we had such an abysmal offense this year on top of the defense couldn't get the puck out of their zone. If we get a new center their biggest attribute will be their neutral zone driving.</div></div>

Hence why i thought jt miller would be realistic lol
