I'd rather have Franson than Schenn to be honest. Both are slow as (frank), Franson is better offensively

I'd rather have Coliaccovo then either. He would cost 1/3 of what the others do.

Your comparisons are always top of line and a bit outlandish.

Pat Kane, Jamie Been etc etc. These players are few and far between.

- ImThatGuy


A comparisons is for the type of playing style they have it does not mean they become that person like really ? Do you think when they have a player comparison on the draft network it means he will be that person ? No


The only player I see being such a impact in the nhl is manner he is going to be lik pat Kane I don't see him winning cups lol but you can save this

It would be a mistake to pay Yandle as if he were a #2. He is a #3 on a good team. I wonder if we could overpay him on a short deal - maybe 2 / 16 mill.

The best, but maybe not the best fit for everyone.

Goligoski, and Hamhuis will get attention too.

I don't think Yandle gets the brinks truck backed up

- sbroads24

he is really slow and lost his edge


I would be fine with goligoski

he makes this team much better

you can question if he deserves top pair minutes or not

for sure he can anchor one of the pp's

probably one of the 3 fastest skating d men in the league right now


many times the rangers give him 25 minutes a night

I have no problem giving him 4 years at 6.5 per

Goligoski would be my target. Nothing flashy, don't have to lose the assets, I'd assume a reasonablish deal but a bit higher since it is Free Agency.

As long as there's no NTC or NMC then I can live with that deal.

I like that problem a lot more than the one where we had to juggle to reach the floor. It's also why I want to use the pick this year so that when we are paying these guys we have another top 10 talent ready to step in on an ELC.

Toronto will get him. I'm already prepared for it. I know what 89 says and I know about the idea that we have a chance but just to keep my sanity when it does happen I need to prepare myself for it now.

Murray hasn't given out a NMC yet I believe. Moulson has a limited NTC, Gionta's was from MTL, Legwand's from OTT, Bogo's from WPG. Gorges has a NTC, I believe from MTL as well.

I thought colo was just as bad if not worse. If you add 2 top 4 guys (stretch i know) you can slide mccabe down there or you could look for a bargain in FA or on the trade market. Honestly think Guhle could handle it too if he puts on some muscle.

This won't be true for Eichel by the time his deal is done though. Maybe even Reinhart too.
