And congrats to the Bolts. They are pure fire. What a roster build.
Now...as I said in the dying comments of the last blog:
Let the Roster Games begin. |

No, he's just aware of how Rutherford operates.
However, after the Matheson trade the Pens will barely have enough money to fill out the forward group, so I wouldn't worry about another RD coming in.
Then again, if he finds a way to dump JJ from the books that changes everything. |

I see a lot of irony there but honest question: can Nielsen still be a decent 3rd line C? |

Nothing playing with McCann and Scevior to rejuvenate your career.

Yeah. He’s overpaid. He had a brutal year spending time with bums like Erne and Perlini. |

Yeah but he’s a veteran. I’m just trolling. Seems like something JR would do though lol. |

You keep putting Sceviour as our 3rd line RW haha really? He'll be in the 4th line at best IMO. |

I remember Nielsen in the island playing very well. His contract might suck but if you retained a bit of his salary I'd take him for Jacko and Murray. |

He’s also only a 125k hit if buried. I see him being a guy that’s waived 2 months into the season when they realize he sucks. |

I know you were, but yes, it is a very JR thing to do.
My hope is JR redeems himself somehow and find a way to attach JJ to the Murray deal.

I wouldn’t retain a penny if JJ is coming back. |

I do think something like the Nielsen thing is the only way that works. Otherwise a team is committing like $8m for JJ and Murray. That seems bad. |

Since we don't do buy outs, I think he might get exposed on waivers if we feel a younger guy is ready to jump to the main roster. Again: Lafferty > Sceviour. |

GMJR isn't the only game in town who makes bad deals, so I'm banking on that.
I could see him revisiting a deal with MIN to have Rask going back the other way. I don't want that, but I could see it. |

JJ and Murray package potential returns imo:
DET: Nielsen
OTT: Zaitsev
EDM: Neal
Otherwise you’re adding or retaining on JJ. |

It's like you expect all the worst deals possible haha JR doesn't help himself
Maybe we sign J.Fast or Ennis? I really see C.Tanev as a possibility. Never hated him but the $$$ and term on his deal would kill us. |
