Trade McCann. Sign Gagner. Poulin makes the team.

3rd line is

Poulin-Gagner-Horny

Otherwise known as the PPG Paint line.

Quick comment on the last posting. Even if Fleury gets bought out, he is not coming back. He wants to be a starter periord! He would not have that option here. I love Fleury, my fav tendy of all time, but he is not going to be back!

I think we definitely should acquire players based on how cool of a nickname we can give to the line.

Or we can just do what I do in NHL '20 and acquire all the fastest, cheap-ish players. Let's just get Grabner, Hagelin, and Cogliano to round out the bottom 6 and try to be the fastest team in history.

Would Tyler Bozak be an option?
After the Pens trade Murray, I am sure some salary retention agreement can happen with St Louis on Bozak. But would he be a fit?

Nope. You need to maximize revenues so it’s the PPG Paint line for the extra ad money.

How many teams could Fleury go to and be the starter? Jarry didn't even start in the playoffs here so he's hardly so entrenched that someone couldn't look at this job and see the chance to take over.

Crap. I stopped following after he went to the Mighty Ducks.

The Pettersson trade was one of GMJRs better moves.

Obviously Sprong sucks but such a shame that a young, cheap RH sniper/powerplay specialist and a fast skater didn't pan out. He could have majorly helped our post-Kessel PP & probably eliminated the Kapanen deal from happening.

Here's to hoping Legare can become that RH sniper in short order.

2 year, one way deal for a guy they never called up. (Not that they had him long before the shutdown). Wonder if they have plans for him or just wanted to make it easier to pass him through waivers.

Fair deal, but I still think they will look for a center based on this...

GMJR statement: “Jared is a good offensive player who can play center or wing. We saw improvement in his play this year and feel that there is more upside to his game.”

Pleasantly surprised. Rutherford's comments earlier made it seem like he didn't have plans for him.
