  1. I did and counter with Hog/Pod being ahead of him for a top 6 spot to someone who said that and with us desperately needing real GRIT in our bottom 6 making the likelihood plummet even more for Madden here since he'd either need to be in the top 6 or nothing. Toppled with the fact that there's gonna be drafts and FAs in the next few years that can further push him down. At least I have said that. Idk who you've been talking to who hasn't said that but they should.
  2. I think Hughes will sign less than Petey personally because I think Petey is the better player. Look at how Mackinnon and Eichel progressed. They weren't PPG players for a few years then exploded into top players. Petey's already putting up a PPG now... He's not even filled his body out. Gotta be careful with that. He's gonna take that next step eventually and we don't want him coming off a contract when he does.
  3. I think Petey might sign long term out of his ELC. Could get him cheaper if he did it sooner than later. Defenseman never sign monster deals out of ELC unless you're Ottawa and he doesn't have rights anyway.
  4. I think the difference will show when Brock's back and we have a full lineup. Motte/Leivo will be back in that time too. People are gonna take it one way or another but I am gonna wait till then.
  5. Must of been their confidence at C already and the fact that Hog/Pod have him beat at wing in the top 6. Also has to pack on weight. He ain't no Petey. Vancouver would be hard for him to crack since he would have to be top 6 or nothing. Need grit in that bottom 6 no more buttery soft guys.
  6. We're kind of at the point if we're letting guys go while in a playoff spot then we're just plain dumb by wasting years. Core pieces are in and it's time to get them that playoff experience. Even our captain who's almost 25 has only had 6 games.
  7. I mean he was on the league 2nd worst team offensively despite leading his team in goals. I wouldn't hang my hat on it he's in a way better environment now and would of been producing a lot more had he started out with us.
  8. Madden wouldn't be on our team for 3+ years. No way he gets a top 6 spot till he ups his weight and Hog/Pod are ahead of him. He definitely isn't meant for a bottom 6 role, especially since we need tougher players there and Guad already has the confidence of the organization at 3rd C. He would have the toughest of times cracking our roster out arguable out of any forward.
  9. And waste away pro years of our core pieces? No sir. These kids need some playoff experience. Even our near 25 year old man captain has only tasted it.
  10. IDK with cap if they make the playoffs the picks going to NJD. We don't know what kind of team we're gonna have next FA and it's not that far away.
  11. Definitely needs some work though on the dot and in his own end. Those parts of his game has not nearly been as good as his offensive side.
  12. We gotta a lot of forward positions made up like our top 3 centres and guys like Hog and Pod's ahead of him for top 6 spots. He also has a huge disadvantage in his weight and we really need more grit in our bottom 6.
