If we are running the 4 forward 1 d setup, he's not getting PP time barring injuries. Speaking of PP, I really hope we fired our PP coach lol. they ran a 4f pp because they had no other options.........I'd bet they'd have Myers riding shotgun with QH on the pp. Hughes is a great set up guy and Myers has a great shot. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can take away some hard minutes from Tanev and hammer the puck from the point, then absolutely I want Tyler Myers. If he can't be solid on the PK, it's a hard pass for me. I'd agree with that 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will be a key player on the second unit. They don’t wanna give him too much too soon. Let him earn his way up to the 1st unit. They’ve also gotta be conscious of his first contract. Don’t wanna inflate those numbers too much. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, it says were going to be active besides landing Myers. Benning is gonna surprise us with something. How I would like it to play out is: Myers @ 6mill over 5 years Nyquist @ 5.5 mill over 3 years Chiarot @ 2 mill for 1 year Boeser resigned @ 6.75 mill over 6-7 McElhinney @ max ahl salary for a 2 way contract. Trade Sutter for 3rd or 4th round pick. Saves 4.38 cap hit. Try to package Eriksson (25% retention) with Sven to Ottawa for a late pick? Ottawa definitely needs to hit the cap floor. So this helps both. We eat Eat 1.5 mill cap hit on Loui and shed 7.87 in the process. Sign Leivo @ 2 mill per for 2 years. Miller - Pete - Boeser Pearson - Bo - Nyquist Virtanen - Gauds - Leivo Motte - Beagle - MacEwen Ex. Schaller (ir) Roussel, until christmas. Edler - Myers Hughes - Tanev Chiarot - Stecher Ex. Biega, Sautner/Brisebois Marky Demko If were out of it come TDL Trade Tanev and sign Tryamkin to come over. Shop chiarot, replace with Brisebois.

Couldn't disagree more with the bolded. Do you really think management and the coach would deliberately try and restrict the points a player gets to save a few dollars later on his contract. By that logic, we shouldn't have had Petey on the PP last year because it's going to cost us later !! Their BIGGEST goal is to make the playoffs and start this ball rolling. They want Hughes to be a huge success that drives offense. 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re assuming that Hughes is going to take power play time from 10 year vets, which is a bit of a stretch. If he earns that time great. You can’t hand it to him though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biega, Sautner/Brisebois Marky Demko Like all those moves but I think those salaries might be a bit optimistic. Myers is likely over 6 mil as is Nyquist who just put up 60 points. Boeser on a 6 or 7 year contract is probably gonna cost 7.5 mil. Maybe on a shorter bridge deal we get him cheaper. Regardless I hope Benning can do something along these lines. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VIC_CITY Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 1 hour ago, DeNiro said: He scored 36 points two seasons ago. i don’t think 4 points is insurmountable with first unit power play time. He scored 0 goals and 7 assists on the PP last year. I know he played behind some guys but that's not a guy you want anywhere near your 1st PP unit.

Seven assists is pretty good playing on the second unit. I’m sure he could put up quite a bit more playing with Pettersson and Boeser. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is going to be some deals this summer, people are more cap conscious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferland hopefully would rub off on Virtanen playing bigger. The only thing that worries me about Ferland is injury history. He actually is pretty skilled, for a guy who is such a pain in the ass. Ferland at 4 million over 3, would have the potential to be a decent contract. Edited June 30, 2019 by KKnight 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
