Thread: Cap space to actually make a move at TDL to address needs

Really like the idea of getting Roy (or Pesce, but he is likely too expensive and older). Don't Woll is ready to be the starter though... goaltending on this roster is really weak. I think I'd rather bring back Sammy tbh.

Agree with you. We would have to go shopping in UFA to keep improving the quality of our d-core in the summer.

Not sure Carolina's goaltending is what I would have picked to boast about.

Thread: deadline deal

I think if we aren't using our first, then CGY just asks for our 3rd this year and next, plus a prospect. Maybe Abruzzese gets it done, but I just think another team would be able to outbid us. I'd rather use the assts on Hanifin or another high impact guy with term.

Thread: Necas for Saros Discussion

CAR has to add. Nashville has all the leverage .They don't need to trade Saaros. Carolina's goaltending has been absolutely brutal all year. Don't think they want to go into the playoffs with Raanta/Kochetkov as their tandem. I think it has to be Necas plus a high pick or another quality prospect. Maybe there is an asset going back to Carolina in the deal, but it won't be as valuable.

Thread: No Deadline Deals just UFA

Don't disagree with you. This roster is really mean to stabilize the d-core, which is something (in my opinion) that we severely need. Unfortunately our UFA signings that were supposed to be the most impactful (i.e. Domi, Bertuzzi) just haven't worked out. I don't hate the idea of bringing Domi back, but don't see it working from a cap standpoint if we are going to upgrade the blueline. Basically this strategy focuses on significantly upgrading the D at the cost of adding secondary scoring. Even if we didn't spend as much on the blueline, there really aren't many top 6 forwards out there that would make sense for us to add (beyond a guy like Guentzel that we can't afford). This is just the reality of our cap situation and roster makeup. In a perfect world we upgrade the blue line AND add secondary scoring, but I just don't view that as realistic.

Thread: Parayko Deal at the Draft

Thoughts on Grzelcyk + Roy in UFA? Grzelcyk could slide in on 2nd pair with Liljegren. Matt Roy plays first pair RD with Rielly. 3rd pair is Benoit and McCabe. Not sure if we can afford both, but I think that would be a vastly improved D core.

Thread: Trading For Defencemen This Week

I'd say ignore Lyubushkin retained and just combine assets to get a more impact player. I like Borgen as well.

Thread: Lets sell

I would love to see them do this. We just don't have it this year.

Realistically I think they will stand pat at the deadline because Matthews is having such a good season. I just hope they don't spend all their assets on rentals at the deadline. If it is for an impact player with term/an extension in place, sure, but please no rentals.

No point doing this unless Walker comes with an extension. Even then I don't think it makes sense to trade Niemela.

Thread: Offseason Overhaul

Don't think Chychrun is a realistic target (wish he was), but he would be SUCH a good acquisition.

Forum: Armchair-GMFeb. 10 at 10:41 a.m.

Thread: Offseason Overhaul

I dunno I think Zadorov can handle a top 4 spot. Would you prefer Oleksiak over Zadorov if he was available via trade? I agree on Kampf that the Leafs won't have to pay a huge premium to offload his contract but I highly doubt they will want to retain anything. They're just too close to the cap to have any dead money on the books. Thoughts on Toffoli as a top 6 option?

Thread: Offseason Shakeup

Honestly Roy would be my top choice in UFA. I'm not sure he'd sign here, but I think he'd be a great fit. You think $5M AAV gets it done or is that too low? Anywhere from 4-6 years would be ideal.

Forum: Armchair-GMFeb. 9 at 9:27 a.m.

Thread: Offseason Shakeup

Yeah, seems like he has been a good fit in Seattle, but I think he'd be a great top 4 guy that brings stability and size+physicality. Still not much offence coming from that blueline though.

Don't know why people want to trade Lily. Just creates another hole on the blueline. We need quality right hand shots.

I'd do a first (2024) plus Niemela and Robertson for Laughton and Walker (extended).

Thread: Flyers do this

I like the trade but the price tag is too steep. I'd rather pay that (plus another asset) for Laughton and Walker. Or just target Matt Roy in LA and extend him.

Thread: Nylander Extension Update

I agree he isn't the best option, but trying to illustrate what a realistic D addition would look like. We will probably be priced out of the Hanifin/Pesce sweepstakes, so there aren't really too many options left over outside of Tanev and Zadorov. Both will likely get overpaid due to a lack of other quality d-men available. One other target I'd love to pursue is Grzelcyk, but I doubt he leaves Boston.
