So weird seeing him so calm. I always figured he was just like Charlie Murphy described 24x7.

@vzmercogliano
That would be my best guess.


Do not love that 3rd line.

Thing is wheeler could play with McDavid and Draisitl and you wouldn’t like the line

"Do not love that 3rd line"

Wheeler wasn't really part of the equation there. However, that is still the correct assumption.

What if they went after Nylander? Laf, Lindgren and a couple of high picks. Needs to come with a Nylander extension tho

Trading Lindgren would be painful but I think he has to be in any trade for him, salary wise and Tronna needs a Lindgren so that would help get it done. I do think Nylander would fit very nicely

You're the one who brought it up today. Nobody was arguing about it. I wasn't spamming the issue.

I know I am in the minority here but I think they need to move on from Lindgren eventually regardless of salary implications etc. He will suffer the same decline in play that Girardi did.

I know. It’s a tough call. Losing him would hurt chemistry more than anything. He’s the ultimate glue guy

It sucks, I like Lindgren a lot. But I think they may even be preparing for that inevitability by playing Miller with Fox. That is the future top pairing.

Problem is we’d have to play Zac “Wet Noodle” Jones every game

Like current day Marc Eduoard Vlasic. Those type of d-man decline so rapidly.

Gustafsson is just older, slightly bigger Zac Jones. Gustafsson has been good.

Just picking one aspect to address...
Nylander is looking for >$10M for that extension. We would need to trade at least one more significant contract to make room.

Pretty much. His size really helps though.

So much value in that signing.

Well yea but next year the cap goes up they keep saying and Lindgren is due extension also. The only way it works is if Lindgren is in it. Lindgren is getting 5-6 mill isn’t he?

3 mil through the end of this season. I don't think he has an extension worked out? I would also say on no planet is Lindgren worth north of 4.5mil.

I hope Laf is not a bust, but there also seems to be a consensus from 31 other hockey GM's that Laf isn't worth a second round pick...as he was not offer sheeted.

He better learn then. Signing Lindgren long-term will be a mistake.
