SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 Can’t complain about signing a UFA like Cole to the same AAV as his last deal, despite him moving to a much high tax city. Cole is also coming off his career best season in GAR (8.2) and EVD (even strength defensive) GAR (8.9). For what it’s worth, that kind of GAR impact is valued at $8.8M (per Evolving Hockey). 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoosh Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 I’m not expecting any more big deals from us now. Not that these were big in any way but it feels like we have adressed what was needed and 3C will come later here via trade. Blueger was depth in my books, not permanent for the 3rd line.

TheCammer Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 (edited) Underwhelming. So that is status quo with my opinion on Rutherford and Allvin. I'm editing because overall I think yesterdays additions were solid and the one-year with Cole and Blueger are show me contracts and at the very least another year of development for some of our young D.

Still haven’t addressed a partner for Hughes. I hope they’re looking at that first. Something involving Garland for Tanev would be a good short term solution. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashian Kassian Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 I like this add, veteran guy on a 1 year deal. Played pretty good for TB last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DownUndaCanuck Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 Cole can play on the right, he's going to surely go in with Hughes, a rich man's Schenn. I think we're just going to get a lot of stop gaps until Willander and our new future kids come through. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we somehow pull of a Pesce deal, we're a contender. Big call but I think it's true. Boeser + Hoglander + Rathbone for Pesce Hughes - Pesce Soucy - Hronek Cole - Myers Hirose Top-5 D in the league. 4 solid tiered centers. Top 5 goalie. Contender. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to get him and would gladly move either type of package, one like you proposed or even one with Lekkerimaki and a 1st plus a winger. RHD like Pecse are seldom available and if he is it's such an obvious fit here that all options should be explored. The only young winger off limits for me 26 and under, is Podkolzin. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RolexSub Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 For that kind of money and his age, I would have rather signed Luke Schenn back and saved some $$$ at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharpshooter Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 Like this signing. He isn’t the Cole of old, but he’s still a pretty good add to the blueline. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As good as Schenn is, he's getting older and slower (as is Cole too), and I think Cole just has a tiny bit of an edge on Schenn. I don't see Schenn playing 20 minutes a night next year, he's more of an 18 minute guy who mainly plays shutdown minutes and the PK, whereas Cole might have one final year of 20+ minutes left in him. Plus he skates a tiny bit better. They're pretty similar players but I'd give the edge to Cole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegasCanuck Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 As expected, there's a lot of short term deals as players bank on big cap increases next summer and beyond. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
