Zotto is not a good replacement for Grossman. Need a guy with Decent size and mobility. The D is already too undersized with Timonen, Streit, and to some extent AMac

Yeah, I'm not sure what's going on here.

Regardless, we can't get either player right now because we can't assume that we'll definitely move the pieces needed.

Who's comparing ?.. and whom to whom ???

Holly molly, changing the D corp and replacing a ''type'' of dman for the same type player is completely separate things.

Speed and quick puck movement is Berube's system. You don't need to replace player X with player X. Upgrade and get the most effective player for the system as a whole.

wow lol

Ehrhoff is a good defenseman, at worst a very good second pair guy, who was bought out because Buffalo faced cap recapture penalties if he retired early following a trade.

Del Zotto was dumped because he's very poor in his own end.

If you could get Del Zotto for cheap, the upside is still intriguing.

Exactly. They need to sign a backup and 1-2 more bottom-6 players if they plan on waiving Rinaldo and Rosehill, which puts them at the limit. Which I'd prefer they not do for opening night.
- jmatchett383



That's true, but a team can always open up a slot. There's always one or two players that aren't top prospects that can be move for the old future considerations.

The HOF can't contain him. They'll have to have the ceremony on some majestic Norwegian mountain, one of the gas giants, or possible another plane of existence.

Berube's system is about a lot more then speed and quick movement. It's also about defending and puck pressure.

If Berube locked Gustafsson in the press box, he'd make Del Zotto buy a ticket and sit in 208

I was thinking of that place where Thor is from.

They could give him 10 Swedish virgins and the realm of his choice.
