Thread: wsh push
One thing that is ignored here is that where is WSH going?
With that core, they are not going to suck enough to rebuild.

If the priority is Ovie's goal record, he's not going to get it without a proper two-way center and a playmaker. The money and brand value will be insane if he gets the record - WSH is thinking that more than competing for the Lord Stanley.

Couture had a great season last year, this year if he is able to show that he still has it, he could be an asset. Great two-way play and ability to make his lineys better. The reality is that WSH has barely any assets to move. He has three more years left his deal after this - Ovi two, one extra perhaps to reach the record. When Ovi era ends, they can start rebuilding.

They have the cap space to do both of these deals and still sign a top 6 forward in the off season.

Huby would waive his NMC for an opportunity to play with Ovie.

It makes sense to try to build a proper team for 2-3 seasons and then suck, not stay mid the whole time.

Thread: replacing Johansen and fulfilling Girards absence
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Xqb15a</b></div><div>Girard is a top 4 guy he was playing the 3rd most minutes amongst dmen before entering the PAP. Jones in the top 4 would not be good, Malinski has been really solid but I wouldn’t be excited about that. Another D particularly a RD that kills penalties (who doesn’t want that though) as part of the 3rd pairings would be a nice luxury but is way down the totem pole of needs, which I would rank in order as being 2C that drives 5v5 play, 4C that is good on face offs and PK’s, a back up goalie, and a middle 6 winger with some scoring pop so LOC and Cogs can be the 4th line wingers primary pk guys.</div></div>

Anyone who you could see as a potential fit for the 2nd line C role? Lets put it this way, who would you love to see (besides Crosby :D ) and who would be a realistic option?
