If we miss the playoffs this year it's because we have guys like Beagle, Baertschi, and Eriksson bringing nothing to the table and eating up salary. With his play of late, you can add Roussel to this list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True enough, but I believe this dude to probably be top-5 in the nhl speedwise... the only player I’d say that I’ve seen play live with similar speed is McDavid.

Beagle and AR actually forecheck and finish a body checks sutter is the waste of salary turd in the bottom six.easily softest player on the team turns of every check. Cap hit next year 4+ mill for a non physical fragile 4th liner. No thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RakuRaku Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Are the Ducks really gonna play Backes?? If not..... send him over! We can use his toughness and leadership... but they gotta retain 80% of the salary! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the problem with Sutter is... he just can't frigging gain weight and build muscles to fill the frame.... hence the reluctance to throw NHL level big hits.... coz the force will get absorbed by the receiving player, bounce right off and then get him injured... like AGAIN!!! *sigh* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's the "trendy" thing to do, but I can't think of a more ridiculous thing for JB to do. Ride it out and keep.the pick(s) and prospect. Yup. After we have to payout his bonus, why bother moving him? I would move him to avoid the payout but afterwards, there's not much benefit. Might as well just ride him out. He's still a serviceable player - just one with a bloated contract for what he contributes. Plus he still has a MNTC for next season and will have to submit a 15 team no trade list which is half the league he can veto a trade to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’ll at least remove the temptation for Green to pick LE in the top six. Maybe LE will retire after getting the bonus than ride the greyhounds in the AHL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that’s why JB shouldn’t be allowed to sign any more UFAs. His signings have come back to stick it to us, cap wise. Seriously, we are having trouble signing Marky and Tanev! That should never have happened. And wouldn’t it be nice to resign Tofu? We could have Marky, Tanev, and Tofu or we can have Loui, Sutter, and Baer. Oh boy! Nicely done JB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the bitching I did about Benning FA signings and time and time again the rebuttal was 'We got plenty of cap, blah blah blah.' Needless to say it pissed me off lol.

I'll video it and post it online Annnnddddd go Green plays LE over the other scratches. So he's in the lineup according to the coach. Psst...make sure you get a close up in the video. Lol.

Cassidy unlike Green doesn't hesitate to throw youth over the boards, giving them solid minutes. Edited February 22, 2020 by 6string Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noble 6 Posted February 22, 2020 Share Posted February 22, 2020 I'm surprised that the Bruins didn't have to add more to the deal to get it done. Kase is a pretty good young player who is on a cheap contract and cost controlled. Add in the fact that they are throwing in Backes' contract and I thought the price would have been significantly higher. This is encouraging for dealing with Eriksson though. We don't even need to land a young player like Kase back, if we just return a 7th but dump Eriksson's contract it would be a huge win. This is where I would have loved to have used Madden as a piece.
