<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RedWing9119</b></div><div>This is exactly why Yzerman is the GM and we're not because he won't make dumb mistakes due to impatience. Thats exactly how Ottawa and New York are having the issues they have now. Yzermans reputation is that he's a hard negotiator and sticks to his price. If Ottawa wants more then screw em. We have <em>every</em> reason not to overpay while we're still in a rebuild and we still are. It's not Stevies problem that people like you are becoming impatient. His draft picks have played a total of like 200 games so far and almost all of that has been Seider and Raymond. Fans who are upset now had unrealistic expectations from the start.</div></div>

weird to come at me so hard but ok. im not impatient, im not sitting here saying they NEED to pick it up push deep in playoffs but its silly to be content constantly with mediocrity. Its also silly to have a mindset of not being able to question things Stevie does and doesnt do. I love him as much as the next and dont get mad at him, nor will I ever want him fired to anything. But surely we should be seeing a better product on ice right now. A lot of that comes with Debrincat and I really dont see the price i proposed or most others around as something we cant handle.

Yes alot of his specs havent played nhl time, and yes alot more will make it and whatnot. But none of them have 40 goal scorer written all over them, and while anything can happen, I dont foresee any of them getting to that. Cat has done that and hes 25. its a no brainer and yes, steve wont overpay either way

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>RedWing9119</b></div><div>That seems like a lot. If Fabbri stays healthy, he'll probably put up close to 50 points, same with Kubalik. So your giving up close to 100 points for a guy who didn't break 70 points. Then on top of that you are giving up a D prospect who was drafted in the 2nd round and has outplayed his draft position and a 1st that might be higher than the Islanders 1st. IMHO it's not worth it. Let the Islanders overpay for him and if he's dumb enough to extend on that collection of neverwas then we were better off anyway.</div></div>

Fabbri hasn't even ever gotten 40 points in his career in one year, Kubalik would hurt more, I like more. I like that you're trying to inflate out guys but we wouldn't be close to giving up nearly 100 points, especially with both players if on the team in lower roles, along with Fabbri always being hurt. combined last year they had less than Cat, and we both know Cat is capable of way more. For the let the Isles overpay, man im tired of mediocrity, we have no reason to not go and get a skilled forward like him, I dont want to move Johansson either, but we have a massive logjam at LHD as is, he might never see time. Make a deal like this, it would be worth it imho
