As much as u rail against them,
our forward core would be a lot stronger with Kane & ROR

the black widow wanted no part of evander or ror

might already be our 3rd best passer up front
if you ignore the tage passes to himself - homiedclown
What if we don't ignore Tage's passes to himself?
Does that make Pomminville our best goaltender?

That wasn’t really my point though
We essentially got no production from what we acquired in those 2 deals
So even though we got Skinner, and added Mitts, Sheary & the StL guys...
all we did was replace their scoring that we lost
and not ADD to it like we needed to
Thus,
ANOTHER season where we lack the scoring necessary to be consistent winners
Hopefully this offseason we can keep Skinner,
and ADD TO HIM
That would be a step in the right direction,
instead of just treading water |

Add ROR and Kane and this team is still close to double digits away from playoffs.
This is why they moved on. They weren’t winning the cup and he wasn’t going to be paying Kane/ROR 15 mil combined into their 30’s.
Yes, short term they are missed in some areas.
Long term it’s the right move by a mile |

So what do we do this offseason?
Add someone like Hayes,
who is only a year younger than ROR
and will make 6mil per-
so we save 1.5mil for a worse player
All that Cap space we saved from them,
we now need to use to sign players like them
And again... it’s totally missing the point of what I’m trying to say...
We lost Kane & ROR
Ok, it is what it is
But all we did was REPLACE the scoring we lost from them
When what we needed to do was ADD to it
But we didn’t...
and the lack of secondary scoring has killed us this year
Also...
we are 100% a playoff team with two more 25-ish goal scorers |

Not with this goaltending and defense still. Not remotely.
They were literally here for 3 years and we never sniffed the playoffs.
With Eichel, with Reinhart.
Do you really think either would be as effective as they’ve been on actual good teams with talent around them?
Kane is 6th on his own team in scoring.
O’Reilly has gotten to play with Tarasenko and his offense has slowly declined over the course of the season. |

You are so blindly focused on Kane & ROR bc of your hate for them
This is the bottom line
We couldn’t score enough last year
We lost some of that scoring
All we did was replace what we lost
And that is why we are in this position AGAIN
Our secondary scoring is horrible
Now,
if we can add some 23yr old guys that can score... GREAT... makes sense
But that’s A LOT easier said than done
Even if those guys are available,
we don’t have many assets left to be able to acquire them
But, for example...
all we do is spend the Cap savings we got on trading ROR for Hayes,
then what was the actual point? |

- jdfitz77
trouba
hall
get skinner signed
get a fringe second line center
and a new coach
I am all for moving the second pick in the first round for a player that will help this fall |

Move Risto plus the 2020 1st for Hall or Trouba use the 2nd 2019 1st for the other.
Hayes might not be a bad option depending on cost (salary) but for nothing more than 3 yrs. He’s not the fleetest of foot and is going to be on the steady downward trend as he ages. |

Do we have the assets to acquire Hall AND Trouba?
Idk that we do
And as good as Hall is...
for we wanna be signing him to an 8 year contract when he’s 29?
I think we should probably look for someone younger
Also...
Hall might wanna hit UFA, and we’d be giving up A LOT to get him
Wouldn’t be like the Skinner trade
If we do want Hall...
I’d rather just wait till he’s a UFA and go after him then |

I think Hayes is gonna end up getting 6mil per
And probably 5years, maybe longer |
