I thought you said something about players who are GOOD
Not that are washed up & suck
Lucic had 6 goals last year
That’s as many as Larsson
Okposo had 14
Wow...
bring in a guy who is supposedly still physical but can’t skate or score
For 6mil per???
That’s a horrible idea
You can find your “grit” a hell of a lot cheaper than that - jdfitz77
Both are horrible. Both identical contracts remaining and same age. It’s what roles they would fill on team. Okposo is horrible on top two lines and can’t play a defensive role. Lucic isn’t bad defensively and adds the gritt we want it seems. Lucic on line 4 is better then okposo on line 4. I would do it.

why is everyone so GD obsessed with the Cap? Franking spend the Money on Talent. I'll bet anyone on here that if we spend to the cap and win the cup not one person would biotch...
Get talent when you can, if you can get PK, Duchene, Ehlers DO IT. who cares if we have to let a player or tow go, price you have to pay to be good. - hehateme

Correct but this team is far from winning a cup
Spending to the cap now and on players that are good but not great gets you into trouble
Then look at Tampa after next season
If they don't win the cup next year they're screwed. They're going to lose at least 2 really really good players

I've seen a lot of scenarios online of a RNH+ for PK Subban deal.
Honestly... that makes a TON of sense for both teams especially if they get Turris out the door. Saw one that had Turris to us for our 2020 2nd rounder. Not the worst in the world but I don't like Turris at all. The idea of a 2C for a 2020 2nd is nice though lol.
NSH fans are trading PK for not a ton online chats. prospects and swapping 1sts. A lot of the time it is to NJD because PK talked about the Devils in some interview on ESPN.
Was hoping it would be a camp dump. 4th or 5th round pick.
With Braun getting a 2nd and a 3rd maybe a 3rd.
Honestly. Just did some back reading would love dumping scandella and bogo, then acquiring PK.
Was doing cap friendly with those two trades and an EK65 signing.
Would he smart. Pk for 3 years would be great. - Mentalorgasm5
I don’t think so
Chances we will legitimately be Cup Contenders in that time is slim
So we’d be wasting his offense and have that 9mil Hit taking up space where we could have a younger player(s) that would be with us for years to come

As long as they are paying good players,
then sure
But u don’t wanna overpay, or bring in bad contracts
That’s not how u build a winning team

I think you’re confusing him with Lucic 3 years ago

How do you know that we would not be a contender. Did anyone think that the Blues would win as of January 1?
Get good players and PK is a great player. sure he is declining but he is still MILES above anything we have other then Dahlin....
