Get one last good year out of Okposo and trade him to the desert to live out his retirement
Only $17/42 million in real money left on the deal after July 1, 2019
Unfortunately the deal runs til 2023 - jcragcrumple
If okposo plays well, wouldn't we want to keep him?
I get the high salary, but he's not that old
Needs 20 goals
And 40 assists

Nice
I’m kinda thinking this series of movies are gonna end up being quite good
I was surprised that i liked the Kong movie so much
They did a really nice job with it imo - jdfitz77

Not sure if Philadelphia is a lock
Should be a 4 way battle for 2 spots
Phili
Buffalo
NJ
Florida
Ottawa
Isles
Rangers
Habs
Detroit
Carolina
3 tiers.
100 and above
90-100
Under 90 - Boss34
I like your enthusiasm with us
I’m thinking we’d need just about everything to go right though
I don’t have a very high opinion on Berglund & Sobatka,
but i also haven’t seen them much last year
They might be decent players still
But they also don’t seem to fit into the team speed that Botts wants
Seems to me like we are still in a transition year, if that makes sense
I do like the direction we are headed though
Dahlin was huge for us
He really makes the defense look like it’s got potential to be great in a couple years |

So many of the decent players we have seem to not really fit the overall team speed concept
If RORs lack of speed was a reason to move him...
then a lot of these other guys who aren’t as good as him need to go too |

Over 30, 2 concussions in 12 months, one of which was serious. Declining speed, making $6m per. We only have 1 fast top-6 winger in Skinner. Okposo would be fine as a 3RW making $3.75, unfortunately that isn't the situation we're in.
I personally doubt he has a 60p season left in him. He's only scored 60p twice, and it was when he was closer to 25. If he does have another in him, I think it will be his last. |

Its genuinely nice to have a civil discussion with you.
And I agree that we need to have things go right.
I'm with homie, goaltending is the key.
That and a hot start to get some confidence going

I think he brings some veteran leadership.
Hes a good guy, tough and strong.
If he plays with eichel, 60 is achievable.
Sure he's slow, has concussion issues and makes too much
I'm optimistic |

I think he could have a good year too. Maybe 55-60 with Eichel. It's
2019-2020
2020-2021
2021-2022
2022-2023
That I'm concerned about. If they can move on next summer, they absolutely should |

Not that i can’t be a jackass,
I’m just not a guy that backs down when someone comes at me
I also don’t take the debates on here to heart either
We’re all obviously HUGE fans
So naturally we are gonna get a little heated when we disagree
Like I’ve said before though...
ANYONE is more than welcome to come down to the bar & I’ll buy them a shot
It’s all good dude
And as far as goaltending goes...
totally agree
Drives me crazy when ppl act like it doesn’t matter that much
Winnipeg Jets, the past 2 seasons
Last year:
-got great goaltending & were Cup Contenders
Previous year:
-same basic team missed the playoffs bc their goaltending was poor
*it really does make that much difference
Just as important as QB |

McCoy with rib cartilage damage, that'll take 8 weeks to heal right. I'm surprised Groy? whoever fell on him, didn't break his pelvis.
