More or less bring back the same mediocre team. I don't think they re-sign Mayfield and Engvall (I hope they don't re-sign the latter).

They're going to have to clear more space if they want to try and sign someone like Tarasenko

Yeah not sure how I feel about just running it back again with pretty much same roster but not much else they can do I guess. I just hope they don’t overpay Mayfield or Engvall if they stay

Danny Nelson is a center but played one season as a defenseman in high school because that's what the team needed. Said it gave him a much better perspective on the overall game.

That was all probably music to Lou's ears.

Does it make any sense to let Mayfield go and play Bolduc next year and try to save as much Cap space for 2024?

Well, I guess this is a way to keep Bailey away from Bedard.

On a personal level, Josh should be thrilled if he doesn't have to move to Chicago

100%. I don’t dislike Engvall I just don’t understand Lameriello’s and some of the fanbases love affair with the guy. He’s another middle 6’er at best who more then likely is going to suck up more cap space then he’s worth.

I have a hard time seeing us sign all of Varly, Mayfield and Engvall. I think ine of, if not both, Mayfield and Engvall are goners.

For a million bucks to be 3rd line center he can find a spot. I’m just happy to be done with the Bailey project. It was possibly 5 years too long.

If running it back does not give us realistic chance at a Cup, why not try to save as much Cap space for 2024 at this point?

Hate giving up assets to dump a contract but happy to see him gone. Finally. Now let’s see what we do with the cap space that we just gave up a 2nd round pick for. Color me surprised if it’s actually something I agree with.

#Isles fourth-round pick LW Jesse Nurmi said he will play in Finland for the next two seasons. He expects to attend Isles development camp.

Obviously looks up to other Finnish NHLers. Mentioned 'Canes Sebastian Aho. I joked with him he sort of gets to play with a Sebastian Aho.

Don’t get your hopes up…..but another bad contract was moved off the books so that’s good. That 5 million should pour into the PP

My hopes are not up. Never were. I have zero expectations besides seeing the same team next year minus a player or two.

I’m hoping Barry gets all cerebral.
