N4ZZY Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 13 hours ago, HKSR said: Hasn't scored more than 15 goals in a season for his entire career with the Preds while playing consistent top 6 offensive minutes. No goals and 4 assists this season so far. Also carries an $8m cap hit for 4 more seasons. He's bordering on an anchor contract right now. Why would we take him? don't we have cap issues ourselves? Not like the Preds would take Ericksson... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loui's is down to a 6 these days seeing as most is paid out and it's almost done. So Benning not the only GM who makes mistakes. Good to know. With that being said, his time is still up as GM of this franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gollumpus Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Well, I'm thinking this topic (along with the Virtanen and Bennett threads) should be moved to the "Proposals and Armchair GM'ing" section for lack of relevance beyond the "rumour" aspect of this Discussion section. regards, G. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like having 2 rookies on the 3rd line with no true centre's to play there, excellent checking line too! Nils and Podkolzin are the 2 toughest. Most feared canucks checkers and PKers, tied for #1 in FO% too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J-P Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Just want to point out that Jarnkrok is a swede and in swedish "jarn" (järn) = iron and "krok" = hook so that's like the coolest name ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rekker Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 I don't get why we would trade Gaudette. He has upside and can maybe play center yet. Keep him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think he is a cap dump... but he doesn’t seem to be a great fit with the makeup of the team as it stands. He has really been sheltered, playing 4th line minutes... and still getting exposed defensively a lot. The more he gets sheltered, the more Horvat has to take up the slack. Ot doesn’t hurt to keep him as a 13th forward for the time being, but not a big enough loss to worry about if we can use him as a sweetener to dump some cap or get a more useful asset back.

Having 2 young guys on the same line isn’t ideal but I don’t think it deserves this reaction because of how good both these guys are on their 200 foot game.

After Jake/Gaudette I think if we are to have 2 youngsters on the same line they have to have a center that’s good with them. Someone that would be an upgrade on Sutter. If we clear cap maybe an Adam Lowry or maybe a trade for a Chris Tierney-type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
