You have to develop these type of players or you have to overpay.

Maybe Gadgovich can turn into this type of player a couple of years down the road with some improved skating.
- NightBeast

Yeah better to develop them but I am not sure Gadj is the guy. I think of Gadj Lind and Lockwood last year I like Lockwood the most and think he is the better player.

Simply what I would offer & then other details eg cap would be reworked.

Hopefully the feelings coach will hire a pampering assistant.

I think Gadj would be a better third wheel on a top 6 line with his size and grit if he ever makes the team.

He's 29 , crazy money , his style will be hard to play mid 30's

Next LE imo.

I imagine he is a decent player even away from the Leafs , but I haven't really given him a lot of thought. I guess if talks get serious then I would look deeper into it . I think he will get 5 x7 but I don't think it will be Canucks. I think they are just kicking tires.
- VANTEL

Kicking tires no doubt. I don’t see him signing here. If he walks it’ll be for more money/term.

Tons of hearsay floating out there but until they happen . It is fun to speculate.

3rd line if skating improves. Aidan McDonough has a power skating coach which bodes well for us.

Lockwood has a chance to make this team. JB needs to do roster juggling with buyouts etc.

Idk why he doesn’t take it then.

Ever see him run when healthy? Lol

I am hoping they go after Neal after he is bought out I think him as a fourth or third liner for 900 K would be a good deal.

- Nighthawk

From what I read, the agent knows other teams might match that or even beat it, so they want a bidding war

Could give you a cheap 10-15 goals

Most likely bottom 6 if he makes it, but hoping he could fill in as a Hyman role for the team one day as a ceiling.

And some toughness

- VANTEL

Yeah he has some bite to his game. But he’s slow so o think you’d need two faster guys with him to avoid having a slow line.

Same as Hyman would give us

Hyman if signed here would probably play the Burrows role for EP or Bo.

Benning said he’d ideally like to get a Russian player to help Pod with the transition here. Also said earlier this month that he wants size on the back end.

Nikita Zadorov?
