  1. Wish him well - if true ? Cause from the outside, it looks like a convenient injury to help with their cap. If they require more Allvin, has Ferland.
  2. If this is true, Matthews has no interest in winning a cup and I hope Dubas, will give him that contract - go Laffs (lol)....
  3. Good points. Yeah, I would prefer to leave this one, to Allvin to figure out cause re signing Bo, still leaves JBs' roster intact with its flaws and so far, outside of the Covid playoffs the current roster is very much, stuck in NHL purgatory. As for Colorado and the playoffs, it matters alot which teams are making the playoffs and more so, the match ups - imo. Anyways, with Colorado I had been watching Sakic, very closely and it has been very interesting, how creative he is with his roster vs what he had been watching with our beloved Canucks...
  4. With the Canucks, and with no injuries - Bo is a 3C or 2C (imo). Perhaps with another, team he can be more than a 2C and will get his asking price ?
  5. Well said, about Bo's potential contract and comparisons
  6. Probably best to employ, the same strategy they do with goalies in the draft: on different positions on the ice - with the emphasis on premium positions. Ofcourse, drafting is the easy part and we all had seen, the lack of player development from Abby/Utica. Hopefully, with the new FO and various departments the development part, will ALSO improve ?
  7. Well said, JB should had just traded all his pick (rounds 1 till 7th) cause player development seems to be an after taught, with the past regime (or Green), since they preferred the veteran plugs vs the developing the prospects to fill holes in the roster.
  8. Only asset, they have to trade will either come from the forward group and/or premium draft picks. Tradiing both asset types, further hurts the teams chances of making the playoffs cause the farm depth, of quality NHL ready prospect doesn't exist. So, I am not sure any trades can be made that will matter; and imo, the best option is to stand pat; roll the dice with the current roster; & if things go south - sell in the TDL and go for Bedard
  9. Injuries will derial the playoff dream and hopefully, they go all in on the Bedard lottery or they remain a solid contender to the Purgatory Cup...
  10. Pfft, who needs more overpaid Myers type defenceman. Kidding aside, perhaps a good system and a bunch of defencemen that has enough talent to make the system work - imo, might be a cap friendly solution ?
  11. Imo, the Bobrovski signing, is one of Tallons' worse signing as Panthers GM. Solid, signing and a contract similar to Demko
  12. Just looking at his stat: he has never had a 100 point season but the guy, is obviously the leader of that group. Guess, he got paid for the intangibles: making his teammates better, more so, than the points. Mackinnon vs McDavid
  13. Guess, I taught he was ready after all those years of (quality) developement under Cull & Johnston. Kidding aside, it seems he will be added to the LONG list of prospects, we had only read or heard about.
  14. Anyday, now Lou - cap hell to chase a playoff spot or NHL, is where all the is at.
  15. The new regime, really handles themselves well when, in front of the camera. They don't seem to say cooking cutter responses and instead does a better job of articulating when dealing with the media. Anyways, let's see how he does this season.
  16. Yeah a very plausible scenario, unless he duplicates his performance. Hoping, this situation will make Allvin a better GM.
