Well i disagree

I think they have some value.

OJ still has some value. Stetcher might have some value but not right now.

yup.

Stetcher is decent imo, but i want more for our top 4.
Edler-?Risto/Hamilton/Dumba?

As it sits right now, when healthy...
Tanev Hughes
Edler Myers
It's not horrible. Probably why some people think we can be a playoff sleeper.

Not horrible no.
I recall Myers more on the 3rd line and Edler playing with Stetcher on the 2nd.
Maybe the coaches were trying to spread the talent across 3 lines and shelter Stetcher more, who isn't strong enough to anchor a pairing himself?

If they can log big minutes playing at the top of their game sleeper I agree. Total team effort needed has to be bought into. That’s for any team making a run tbh. Marky keeps us in games is a given.

Risto is a big young stud, signed to a relatively reasonable contract.
Immediate upgrade to top 4 D.

JTM-EP40-TT
Pearson-Horvat-Virtanen/Leivo

Tanev-Hughes
Edler-Risto

I like that top 2 lines.

- dbot

Risto has regressed the last three years consistently and has bottomed out in terms of value. Pretty much equal to Myers, slightly more offensive upside which im not really convinced we need. Change of scenery might work well, but he’s very overpaid at this point.

Was -41 last year (on a poopy team)

His stats and eye test against top end talent is about on par with Hutton.

Statistically almost identical. He’s a defensive liability.

Quick google search.

341GP 15g 71a 86pts 125PIMS

493GP 42g 185a 227pts 255PIMS

If you think those stats are identical, i don't know what to tell ya.

Risto is younger, bigger, better than Hutton.
It's not even debatable.

I can think of worse.

Between Risto and Myers who would you rather have in a 7 game war?

Looks like a pretty long list of staff members to me.
Did not know, Will Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett are limited partners of the Devils.
