He's only 27 will be 28 in January but I would think you could get 7 more years out of him.

Seth Jones cost a very good young Center....................

Because it's not the military...

huge difference between running a preseason boot camp which "Builds character" and running everyday operations like so.

I thought he was 29 that's my bad.

Still concerns me a bit though for his price tag he will get.

Would have to move a couple contracts to get Shattenkirk under the cap.

We could get Olli for free

shats 27 years old


JESUS CHRIST!!!!!

If you're going to sit and argue with someone who runs an ice rink about how running a rink like its the military isn't a bad idea you're more hopeless than I thought.

Your first life lesson of the day, never argue with someone who actually knows about the topic at hand, someone who does it for a living, it's like arguing with homie about fish. You're gonna have a bad time.

first of all this is making me laugh a little because I'm not even arguing at all I didn't even say anything about your work lol

Yeah his price tag (salary and what it would cost to trade for him) is going to be high that's for sure.

Fowler looks better and better

Counted 21 ufa/rfa's contracts need attention or not for next season on the team. Lots of work for GMTM.

One of Bogo, Moulson, Ennis would have to go

It's a win by subtraction

Even though Bogo didn't play bad his first game back but he is due for another injury any day now

locking up risto for 5.4 per allows you to pay a bit for more shat

(waits for next excuse why we don't need him)

I see 6 -8 contracts we could move, and the team would be just as good

He has been back for 1 game

I don't think that will ever happen...

Exactly!

I have nothing valuable to add.

You're moving someone out of the top 6 for someone else in the top 6.

Look I am not saying Duchene isn't better than Reinhart, I am saying it doesn't fill a hole in the roster.

Plus you have to think about the salary cap in the future. Sam isn't going to get an Eichel type pay raise so you would have him on a good contract as well.
- Stripes77

We should be looking to move sam for a player like duchene before his value is nothing

Listen I love Sam but he's not a very good player he's all right

oh my

He is on the pretty much the same pace point wise as last year.

We all wanted a better jump, he is still young

Here's what I can say. I don't know for sure, but I have to believe, that people who are employed in the front offices of NHL franchises watch way more hockey than we do, and have way greater "talent analysis" skills than we do.

So if a good deal of the monkey/blowhard/idiots who pretend to do other work for a living are sitting in this thread all day saying:

"SHHHHHH, don't tell anybody Reinhart is a bust so we can trade him for a high value player ... "

I just think that is a jedi mind trick that won't really work.

Bloggeth, neweth

Worth it!

And More!

You can add another 2nd in that if it helps

I won't speak for the rest of the idiots but this particular idiot doesnt see reinhart as a bust. He believes (as homie stated) that we should move reinhart for the right d-man because a) that position holds more value when building a cup contender b) replacing production on the wing through FA is far easier c) im confident that like 87/71 in pittsburgh, Eichel will generally make any winger look better so as long its someone with scoring prowess who isnt a complete sh!thead in his own end it should work out fine.
