not to change the subject, but what are your thoughts on waiving benning and sending him down?

He seems god awful and not an nhler. I wonder if Thompson would be better? And when mukh is healthy, he might be too?

I doubt Benning gets waived? It’ll likely be Thrun/Benning being cycled in.

Walman and Ceci have looked good, Walman particularly, having Muhk in the top 4 would be hugely helpful.

If Ekblad is willing to sign here you give him whatever contract he wants. Can't see Florida letting him go while they're trying to win another Cup.
Yeah, I think Ekblad is a pretty unrealistic target anyway, Florida can't afford to lost him after losing Montour and OEL last summer

They're going to give him a big contract but it will be less than everybody thinks so he can stay with the team that picked him #1, that he won a cup with and where he pays no state income tax, it'll be ugly in the back half but that's tomorrow's problem

Agreed on walman and Ceci. Agreed in walman particularly too….

Goes to show that getting good D really matters. It’s kinda why I’d like to see Thompson get a real look. We need some young D to step up. Thrun does not appear to be part of the long term future to me. He’s not terrible but I don’t think he’s good enough to pencil in nightly and benning is terrible.

Obviously would like to see what we got in mukh, but for now, I’d like to see Thompson get a shot. We need to find young D that can play top 4 going forward.

We have the goalie of the future. We have the forwards of the future. We need to find the D of the future sooner than 3 years from now when dick might be ready. I’d love to see Thompson penciled in and banning in the rafters.
