Are you the one that said it wasn't worth it to offer sheet Point? If so, he is right.
- Slump Buster

Yes. The salary it would take to win plus the four firsts from a bottom feeding team just doesn't seem worth it to me.

We're probably looking at stop gap at 2C for a few years before Mitts is ready.

Winnipeg? They have plenty of cap space and only have Buff and Pionk at RD.
- mhp

They have to sign Laine and Conner and Pionk. I assume that is about 20mil right there.

Unless you trade Risto for Laine. /Sarcasm

Isn’t the goal to make the playoffs I mean he’s a good center but he’s not one that’s going to push this team over the top
- gerbe75pts

If getting him as 2C doesn't do it, I'm sorry to say nothing will this year. I remain unconvinced that this team can't be solid if they can find a decent 2C to take the pressure of Mitts.

2nd line right winger
- Slapjackzack

Sure. But what team is that coming from?

I think we could trade for point with less than 4 firsts and 13M cap. Do I want him? Most definitely. In two years, the combined salaries of Jack, Point, Jeff, Kyle and Dahlin would be 47M. Less than half the cap. Excludes Reinhart Mittelstadt and all the rest of the defense and both goalies. Look at the poop Toronto has to deal with. Their defense got worse.

Going through Rosters I’m actually having a hard time finding a landing spot for Risto.

Only one I see is the jets ,LA,Detroit, Ducks, Hawks

We definitely need to solidify the middle 6. Even if it's a 2a/b situation toward the end of the year.

Seems like the viable options are trade, Dzingel or Johansson.

A year imo. He might even surprise people this year, depending how seriously he took his coonditioning. My guess is he and ERod go 2a/2b down the middle, with the Mittelstadt line taking a lot of o zone draws

I'm here. Trade for Point. Use two unprotected firsts.

I think they meant Risto could be a 2RW?

They can blow me, and then try to prove it's false.

That’s horrifying thinking about it

I am assuming I didn't miss anything yesterday
- homiedclown

Gerbe finally closed on the "smelly feet" set up and I have to give him straight A's. It was a very long term set up - three days or more - and he didn't rush the punch line.

A real gem.

Or throw Dahlin at 2C

If Erod is your 2nd line center going into this year. Botts deserves a swift kick in the face.

The only way that happens is if Okposo goes the other way. Otherwise, no freaking thanks.

So does Risto at 2C, but thats not saying much.
