I’m not a baseball fan, so I really don’t care, but those baseball players make ridiculous amount of money

I was going to start it last game, but to be honest I was less motivated than Mikko was.
He played center for Finland at the Word Juniors I think if I remember correctly. He was the Captain too.

I made a joke about moving Rantanen the other day, but realistically it would be very difficult to find a good trade partner for him where we address holes on our roster.

Lindholm looks so disinterested on the ice for the flames today . Wonder if he is checked out of Calgary ?

He’s already checking out houses in Denver
Interesting times for multiple teams.
Penguins, Flames etc. Some good players potentially available.

Don’t expect anything from Pittsburgh it seems they will just keep all their guys regardless. But Jake Guentzel would be nice

Lost 5 of the last 6 games.
Only win was that scary 3-2 game against the Ducks.

Also let's not forget that before that losing streak the ONLY reason we were winning was because Makar was carrying the team with 2PPG pace.
The team has been bad all year. The good record is/was a smokescreen.

Yup… carried by the top guys. Once they stumble this team just can’t consistently win.

Last year we were missing a 2C. This year it feels like we are missing the entire second line.

Yep . This can’t go on much longer . Top guys will burn out again and won’t make it past round 1
A big reason the second line seemed fineish was Rants was playing well away from MacK. Right now that isn’t happening, so it seems worse. That’ll reverse some, but the 2nd line is a major issue. There is not way to distribute minutes well and everyone other than the 2nd line is laying too much.

Yeah, and it feels like the lack of a second line now has players like Colton and Wood and a few others are gripping the sticks a little tight. I think everyone realizes they're in a bad way and are trying but... man a few wins would probably make them all feel a lot better heading into the holidays.
I feel for guys like Colton, Wood and LOC. they don’t have the natural talent to be those difference makers, but being asked to do so. Not really a fair ask of them.

I assume that Tatar can be waived/traded fairly easily. It needs to happen tomorrow.
RyJo I don't know how they can replace him in season...unless they find a Kuznetsov retained sort of swap where another team NEEDS to get rid of another bad contract ASAP and that player is also a center.

Need a 2C. Simple as that.
No idea who's actually available outside of Lindholm... But whoever is on the market they need to get. No more half-assed attempts to fix it. Pay the price and give this core an actual opportunity to go win again.
Personally I would literally pay whatever it costs to get JEE. Byram + Ritchie + 1st + if that is what it takes.

Only way they're getting rid of RyJo is packaging him with a high pick or top prospect, agreeing to retian 50% of his cap hit, and getting next to nothing in return. No one wants him.

Which isn't realistic in a world where we need all out cap space + our good assets to find a replacement at 2C. We don't have the luxury to retain and/or pay to dump him.

I think you just pay whatever it takes to get Lindholm
