I'd happily re-sign him for league min and have him as 8th D/in Utica. If he's the 8th defenseman, where does that leave Biega and Schenn?

aGENT Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Just now, PhillipBlunt said: If he's the 8th defenseman, where does that leave Biega and Schenn? Biega/Schenn are right D. Pouliot is left D. Biega/Schenn will be competing for one spot, the other in Utica. I'd be fine if Sautner/Pouliot were the guys competing for the spare left D spot and likewise the loser of that competition goes to Utica. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Where'd Luongo? Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 (edited) This has to be one of the worst rebuilds of all time. At least we have 4 good players... Edited May 8, 2019 by Where'd Luongo? 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is what you think, then you need to seriously pay more attention to how bad other teams have had it outside of Vancouver. lol I would actually consider it to be a decent rebuild by rebuild standards. There are literally perpetual rebuilds out there that have gone on for decades at this point, both past and present.

Plus, JB hasn't had the luxury of success in the draft lottery, so he's not ever picking top 4. JB is doing a great job getting us elite talent to build around. 1 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sedinery33 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 No fear guys, I have a proposal that will make your day better. We trade Goldy and Sutter to NJ Devils for Ryan Murphy and a 2nd. We have our new Pouliot. Fans rejoice HAHAHA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only point I see is you expect a miracle like Chicago or Pittsburgh to happen. The fact that we could probably count how many of those have happened in the past 10 or 20 years on our 2 hands shows how infrequent that is. Perhaps you want caviar and filet mignon with that whine since apparently your expectations are just too good for us normal folk who realise that building a team is actually hard and not like an EA game!

The fact that there is examples of much worse situations then ours, somehow proves your point entirely? I can not wrap my head around that logic. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boudrias Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 His play in the d-zone was pretty brutal at times. How many passes did he make to team mates when pressured to only have the passes in their skates. A tad more physical and little calmer in his d-zone and he might be able to stick in the NHL. That said the competition league wide is fierce. Green gave him a lot of TOI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we are changing the D, but are we getting better? Hughes is clearly an upgrade, but who replaces Edler and Tanev? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could also use a couple more this draft imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the strategy is to see what the market really is and use it as a bargaining chip. Not for Edler to sign elsewhere.
