He would not be servicable on the 4th line is what my point was.

You guys are complaining about Girgs and Poso yet they fill a role and do it well.

Who is better at their role that signed for 775k or more like was said?

- DirtyDan

I asked who is worse and signed for more.

I specified as 4th liners. Domi. He would stink.

"There are probably 25 guys as good or better than Girgensons, Jost, Okposo who signed for $775k"

I asked whom to the above. Still waiting.

- 9th worst GA
- 5th worst PK
- The GM admits the team is soft

They don't help the team defend, they suck on the PK and don't stick up for the youth...that justifies the raise and resigning.

Those are team stats.
.
Look at individual metrics like you guys do with every other player.

Bold is just false.

You replied with a guy who isn't a 4th liner. Alex ovechkin would be worse in your scenario too. It's a bullshít response.

The facts are the facts, their individual stats are from that season, playing defensive leadership roles.

I do t hate this scenario:

Over pay hellebuyck for a 1,2 year deal. We’d most likely lose UPL in waiver UNLESS we made other adjustments to avoid it, but what’s the plan for him anyway? Unless we can trade him. We’ve seen enough of a snapshot of him. Big, but prone to giving up untimely goals. We have an army of AHL goalies right now. If we lose him, it’s not the end of the world IMO.
Levi gets 30 games in and has a security blanket for this year, the playoffs, maybe next year too

- lulags


Why would you want to see levi only 60 times over the next 2 seasons?

That doesnt sound very sabrery and the $ involved....

I see no major upgrades to the bottom 6 with any of those players listed.

Both were on the same line, played PK.

So now it’s the coach?

I'd have liked to replace Zg with Acciari but other than that it's all the same.

Well except for boofstad

It’s Girgensons fault that Skinner, Thompson, Olofsson, and to an extent Cozens didn’t realize there were two half’s of the ice
