I was talking to a guy yesterday who's saying we should keep Kovalchuk. And he khows we are years away before this team is a contender. - deadpoulet
yeah it would be silly to keep "Kovy", but a 33 year old Tatar might still be able to complement the team and help the younger guys when/if they pan out. It wouldn't be the end of the world if they kept him

I think it's a no brainer - obie
didn't I read here sometime ago that Tatar Danault Gallagher was one if the best line in the league at 5 on 5?
if so, you sign all 3 of them and give kids time to progress and eventually take spots on the top 6.
people complain their leaders (Price and Weber) are too old and the kids too young, that there's a gap between them mainly due to bad drafting. well, these 3 players are your link between old and young. have to keep them imo. in 3 years Tatar will be 32, far from finished.
I'd trade Price and Weber before Tatar Danault Gallagher.

If they can get another first round pick or a good prospect......

Can you though? Their contracts are a wee bit off putting.
