2024/2025 Around the League

[The Abusement Park]

The team could do with another forward for sure, at least until Lehkonen is back. And long term a 4c is also a need.

C is 100% a need. And even a winger that would add some goal scoring ability. But another winger that isn't good enough for the top 6 and won't add anything to the bottom 6 isn't really needed.

Goncalves is definitely an interesting name in that group. Scores like crazy in the AHL, but hasn't gotten a real chance in the big show yet. And he's from the Tampa system, if their scouts liked him that's a point in his favor. Ylonen is another name that jumped out, although that may just be leftover from his draft year when I really liked him.

Basically anything to inject a little more skill into the forward group, the 4th line does not whelm me at all.

That's his name? Does he, like, have no flesh below his knees or something?

I thought Ylönen was decent two way player with some skill.

Depending on where Milton goes, that game in Raleigh might also be in jeopardy. It could also go south far enough to impact the Panthers.

In my opinion, he's at the very least a much better call-up option than Foudy or Olausson.

Avs should put in a claim for Ylonen and if they get him, send Ritchie back to the OHL. It's basically a free 2-3 week trial until we get some guys back and at that point, if he's doing well you can also send back Ivan Ivan who probably wouldn't need waivers anyhow.

It took me way too long to figure that out. VAN is so much better

If it directly hits Tampa as is expected right now, it probably won't have large impacts on the other games.... but if Milton keeps going as is modeled right now, Tampa could get hit with the biggest hurricane there since 1921.

You mean BETA is better.

Crossing our fingers here in SW Florida that some of that wind shear coming from the East weakens the storm a bit. Nevertheless, it looks like we're in for another doozy. I'm like 1.5-2.0 hours south of Tampa.

Stay safe! I'm currently trying to encourage some family and friends in St Pete/Tampa to get out. Of course there are always a few 'it is never that bad' types.

He’d be another ~Andrighetto type imo. I think he can be a useful somewhere, but not on a team that has contention goals.
