I immediately had to look to see if he was signed somewhere, because it seems like he could have been of use to a team. Kind of surprised he's not, wonder if that was his choice.

Thread: my lines jan 20 2021 vs Vancouver

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>habsfan01</b></div><div>YES PLEASE</div></div>

So this is my take on this. I love Armia, I really do, but Toffoli is a goal scorer that is not the best in the neutral zone. Armia does not have major speed, so that means not much speed on the wings for KK, which means he is doing most of the puck carrying, which is putting a lot of pressure on him. A little side bar, 22 years ago I had 4 good offensive players down the middle and I only needed 3. I took my best 3 and traded the 4th one. His parents were livid and called me all kinds of names. It is not the their son was not good, I simply had 3 better ones. All three had amazing offensive seasons and went to higher levels. Same with Armia, he is a good player but in the current line up, having him and Toffoli as KK's wingers is not helping.

So, I say trade Armia, you should get a decent return. Move Toffoli to RW, move Byron up to LW, thus you now have your speed and insert Perry or someone else on 4th line.

Dear Victor is going from scratched to first line? my eyes pooped out of my head. But I think you are trying to say is you want more speed on the wing for KK.

Do you know this team at all? Every single player outside of the true rookies has multiple playoff run experiences and even the rookies in Byram, Timmins Bowers were with the team in the bubble. Who exactly is lacking ‘experience’?

You’re not going to have many better options than Graves on a great deal. He’s definitely a better choice than Donskoi, you can find a better winger elsewhere.

I agree on Mrazek, no need. Might be a little high on Landy too. I think he's more in the $7 million range considering COVID. You also don't need to sign Perreault or Ryan as they'd have Bowers and Kaut to fill in. Newhook likely makes the team as well.</div></div>

Yeah I figured that they'd protect toews, my point was more so that they would take Graves over Donskoi anyday.

They don't need them though, all of their young guys have been in the league since they were 18. They've been there and done that. Sure, you can sign a 33-35 guy to play 4th line minutes, but he'd better be able to play quickly because that's their game. Bowers and Kaut are legit being groomed to be solid bottom-6 role players, and they'll be ready when the time comes.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>habsfan01</b></div><div>they lack verteran leaders tbh</div></div>

Let's look at your lineup and sub in Bowers and Kaut for Perrault and Ryan:

Landy (Playoffs last 4 years) - Mack(Playoffs last 4 years) - Rant (Playoffs last 4 years)
Bura (Stanley cup winner) - Naz (Playofss last 5 years) - Saad (2x Stanley cup winner)
Nich (Runner up for selke) - Jost (Playoffs last 4 years) - JT (Playoffs last 4 years)
Calvert (Playoffs last 4 years) - Bowers (Rookie) - Kaut (Rookie)

Toews (Playoffs last 3 years) - Makar (Playoffs last 3 years)
Girard (Playoffs last 4 years) - Timmins (Rookie-ish)
Graves (Playoffs last 2 years) - Byram (Rookie)

Grubauer (Stanley cup winner)
Francouz (Playoffs last 2 years)

Not sure if I'm missing something here, but that seems like a hell of a lot of veteran leadership

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheGHANDI90</b></div><div>Why wld CBJ do this, and not even recoup any draft picks?</div></div>

IMO it's too much of a lateral move for either side to consider. Dubois ceiling is 70ish points which he has as of yet to hit. KK's ceiling is 70ish points as well which again he is as of yet to hit. We do not need to move additional assets just to shave 1-2 years off our timeline.
