  1. Columbus too I reckon they're all willing to ante up to a degree, all three are prospect rich prospects who want to take steps forward, Ottawa and Columbus in particular need D upgrades whereas Buffalo has great pieces but looks to be wanting to add Buffalo and Ottawa are young rosters too, Chychrun'd age fits in well
  2. Pretty sure he's got a home there, he grew up a Pens fan too Good fit for his family which is important to consider him if moving him
  3. Ehhhh, maybe I still don't see them being able to compete with Buffalo's stable of picks, prospects, and young NHL'ers Same goes for Ottawa
  4. Zucker also has a partial NTC, teams with lots of cap space are more likely to be one of those 10 teams
  5. That's what I see happening Ottawa needs defense badly and they should be a team gradually rising, Buffalo's D is very young and Chychrun would set their D for years to come Pittsburgh doesn't have the pieces to beat either team if they really want him
  6. I hope they miss on Chychrun so they trade with us
  7. I put him between 10-11M but I could easily see it being closer to 11M
  8. They didn't have much of a choice unless they wanna set the rebuild back. Good for them though, home state guy wanted to stay with a rebuilding franchise.
  9. Not convinced of that tbh, even with retention I reckon we'll probably take cap back as opposed to freeing up a bunch. I don't expect to free up cap via Boeser. Too many cap strapped teams right now. It'd be easier during the offseason. But yeah, GM'S are weird. But there's something to be said for being able to pick your poison I suppose?
  10. Trading him for someone else's headache, if they're say.. a D, may make sense but we might just get another Myers If they don't want to retain significantly that's gonna be a tough deal to move unless he bounces back, even 5.65 doesn't really sound great for him
  11. Makes more sense to keep him and try to rehabilitate his value Circle round and see where teams are at in the offseason
  12. I mean, it's worth giving OEL next season under Tocchet to show how he does before committing to a headache of a buyout. His buyout will be more manageable later on anyway.
  13. Depends on what else they're willing to give up. Like I said, take Byfield and Clarke off the table and see what else they've got. We could be better off getting multiple pieces in return. I'd be open to something around Petersen, Durzi+ for example. If they think Clarke can make the jump next season maybe there's something there. Petersen would give us a stopgap, Durzi would give us a top 4D. Say we get a 2nd too, I'm just spitballing here. Losing Durzi would suck for them but it's gotta hurt somewhere. Clarke projects as their Doughty replacement, Byfield is likely their best chance at getting someone to eventually fill that Kopitar void. Would they give up a top 4D+ for a younger starting tender with term attached? Maybe. I'm not convinced we're looking to move Demko though so it's really neither here nor there.
  14. I'm not sure they needed Korpisalo though, I dunno. Seems like a lot to give up Quick given what he means to that franchise if there isn't a follow up of sorts. I guess we probably disagree on Demko's value then. I don't see him being worth an A+ prospect. You might get a lesser 1st round talent like Pickering from Pittsburgh but I don't value Demko at an A+ prospect level. They'd be more likely to give up another 1st over them imo. But yes, they'd need to pay us to take on Petersen. Even Buffalo's 1st is more likely to be middling, same goes for Pittsburgh. Although Buffalo does have plenty of prospects.
  15. He's a good RD prospect, one I could see them moving is all If you're thinking Demko to LA take Byfield and Clarke off the table and decide what appeals to you, if they weren't available for Cychrun it's doubtful they'd be available for Demko
  16. Depends on what you consider significant I suppose, goaltenders haven't historically brought in hauls and I'm not expecting that to change regarding Demko More like Peterson, Grans+
  17. Them starting him last night and their shipping out Quick make me wonder. I wasn't expecting Demko to be starting games so soon.
