JeremyCuddles Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Keep Schmidt, let Edler walk. Let Schmidt play on his natural side. He was used on the right side and I don't think it worked for him. Not with the way this team plays defense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only problem is, if we do that, we have exactly one RHD in the organization capable of playing as a regular in the NHL, and that's Myers. Hamonic could be added to that list too, but that's only if we have the cap space to resign him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This team doesn't need $8.25M on the books for the next six seasons, when they're looking at a new core needing support players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comeback_Kings Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 How about Oleksiak as a UFA signing? An Oleksiak Schmidt pairing seems like it would be a good tough to play against pairing. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Oleksiak Schmidt pairing seems like it would be a good tough to play against pairing. Oleksiak is probably on Benning's radar, for the same reason Myers was a couple of seasons ago. Always good to have some massive size on the team, and Oleksiak is a larger overall player than Myers with Jamie coming in around 255 lbs to Myers 229 lbs. Oleksiak shouldn't cost $6M and would definitely help take on major minutes, if the team decides to move on from Edler. Oleksiak is 28 years old, so he fits nicely into the roster that way as well. An Oleksiak Myers pairing would be pretty hard to get around with all that wingspan. I'm all for it. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamonic could be added to that list too, but that's only if we have the cap space to resign him. If we let Edler walk we should still have the cap to retain Hamonic, assuming his ask isn't high. But yes, we do fall short on right side D. But Schmidt is not a right side D anyway and his struggles this season should kind of shown that. People are ragging on Schmidt but never mention he's a left handed player playing RD. Something that even Vegas didn't like, which is why they moved Schmidt to begin with to bring in a RD in Pietrangelo. It's obvious our defense struggled and I think a good part of it was Schmidt and Edler not vibing together, Schmidt not vibing with the right side either.

Jetliner Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 Lol to all the Schmidt lovers. He plays average defense and doesn't produce elite numbers. He's not worth 6 mil Schmidt virtanen 1st for Jones Resign hamonic Sign a reliable dman for 1or 2 mil 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RakuRaku Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 I don't mind it if it means JB can use the cap space to pick up 2 good FA's!! He didn't show what he was really capable of in Vegas but I know not entirely his fault!! Bottom line is, if you're making $6M+ you better show up and produce big numbers!
