perfect trading partner...should be able to get a pretty good return from a nyr organization isn't afraid to pay a high price for a rental

What do they possibly have to offer? They've been sending away picks and prospects forever, their barn looks empty except Andersson, and I'm sure he's untouchable.

2018 1st and Chytil might do it, maybe.

He had what 15 least year mostly on lines 3 & 4.

I still don’t understand what J Botts was thinking in that respect?

What did he think Griffith & the rest of these borderline NHLers brought to the table?
Gionta was actually pretty decent for us last year

botterill would grab that in a heartbeat if that was the offer...am thinking he and andersson are probably off limits with a first rounder...maybe botts can get one of those two straight up

Speaking of 4th liners...whats your take on Nolan? I know everybody hates him because he's not the second coming of Gretzky, but he is always working his ass off and it pays off for him a lot the time. No he doesn't always capitalize on those chances but its all we could ask for from a fringe 4th liner who everyone thought was here to fight.
- feetontheair22



Yes, I hate nolan because he doesnt score 200 points on the fourth line. Not because compared to league average 4th liners he's a possession blackhole and has brick hands.

- IonSabres


But then they didn’t give Jack the “C”

Hell, it didn’t have to be Gionta
Just sign a couple legit NHLers instead of Griffith, Criscuolo, etc
There’s had to be other guys available

He has 30 points in 23 games, he is actually on pace to have 82 points ( last year he had 86)..

In retrospect, it is clear his focus is on changing Rochester culture and performance 1st and foremost.
Sign a couple of guys to make it look good, stealthy tank.
Trade a couple guys who don’t fit into longer term vision, build through the draft.
It hurts for this season, next year will be a balancing period, clearing out dead weight and bloated contracts. Bring up a couple guys, slowly.
2019 is the breakout year, promote from within, a quite pieces and parts.

Tough couple years ahead
