Thread: trying to get Sid one last cup comment
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>5'1 Tatar isn't the answer, and Saad isn't signing a 3 year deal anywhere, nor do I want caught up in a long term deal on him.

If they move Zucker out they have to find a younger FA,

This team is looking at a rebuild next year. I know that' hard for a lot of people to swallow, but that looks like the long term plan.
I don't see them investing a long term contract into 30 year old Rust. Who frankly, might be on the trade block this year.
It would not surprise me at all if he was.
They will move Zucker out by next year as he will have 1 year left and it won't be a huge risk for whoever wants to try it.
Letang and Malkin are coming back at less money or both will be gone.

The question they are left with right now is this.
How do you totally rebuild a team without making it look like you are throwing in the towel.
Frankly, they appear to have given the chase up.
Not a single move in the Expansion or Draft. Neither of which is a good sign.
If there is a plan, it's for next year not this year.</div></div>

its a hextall offseason

Thread: Atkinristoellison
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Alfie11</b></div><div>Patrick, Myers, and pick 13 are 3 fairly high end young players out the door, plus two 2nds. York, Frost, and Foerster are good but there’s not an overwhelming amount of depth to the system after that. And Couturier, Hayes, Giroux, Atkinson, and JVR are all 28+ (last 3 are 32+) so they’re exiting/have exited their prime before their prospects can fully enter theirs. There’s maybe a 2 year overlap where the old guys are still good and the young guys are contributors before the old guys fall off and the young guys take over, but without a supporting cast.</div></div>

Patrick is damaged goods and might never find his niche, Myers was a product that was in the works, he will never have hit to be an ellis type player. The 13th pick is 3-4 years away from playing, we then trade 2nds where these players might never be what these final products are. We still have first round picks for the next 2 years + cap space
