SMDH. I've offered up several solutions. Usually, I am wrong. I am one of the "we have the look and feel of the Penguins after lots of success and cups" folks. If you want to call it bitching ? Great. Then everyone is entitled to their opinion. It's a free country. Even when we were scoring a bunch...the team didn't look for built for the playoffs. DO you disagree with any of my post...if so...tell me why? or are you bitching just to bitch(does this really get us anywhere)?

Why was it hard to answer my question? Because I literally asked what you wanted. But you skirt the question because god forbid I don't remember every single person's solution? You might want to come down off your high horse with us peasants and actually explain what you want. Because I asked a simple question, wtf do you want?

I bitch, but at least I'll tell people what I'm bitching about. I don't expect anyone to remember what I am talking about, because I'm not important or arrogant enough to assume people keep track of my babblings.

So let me say this, you asked do I disagree with you? I have no idea what in the flying f*** your idea, plan, suggestion, or motivation is aside from constantly crying about how bad we are. So I can't agree or disagree with you.

Please, how about come to the window from your castle, and explain to us why our lord here is correct and we stupid villagers are wrong.

Also, hilarious you say as an American "It's a free country". As an outsider looking in on the States, nothing about it screams "Free Country" to me.

A lot of talk about Vancouver as a partner but I haven’t seen any discussion on Conor Garland. I’d much prefer him over Boeser.

I’m may be alone in this but I have Ike slotted as our 2RW when he’s full on in his role. So, to me, I would like to see a move that perhaps nabs a RW on a 1-2 year deal after this season as placeholder for Howard.

I would love to see, or at least believe, that Howard can slot right in after he’s done at MSU. I think what he’s going to be to told is he’ll spend time in Syracuse but be on the shortlist for call ups here.

And I’m not coming off of my stance on snagging Bjugstad as our 3C. Be it trade (with the intent to sign extension) or this summer as a UFA

A third line that has BDN on LW - Another Nick at Center - and Geekie on the RW wouldn’t trouble me. Just my thoughts.

Garland is a better Chaffee. No reason to give up more assets for him unless Chaffee moves in the trade. Garland produces best with a good playmaker. He's not going to get that one second or third line. But a line with Hagel, Cirelli, and Garland would seriously grind down lines.

Boeser is very overrated. Bjorkstrand would be cheaper and a much better fit. Go for him.

Tuch also but I doubt Buffalo sells one of the very few players that has heart on the team

Sum up: I'm in the 'get Bjorkstand' club. Always snipes against us.
The main positive with Howard, too, is that he finishes. Even if his two-way game up here is minor-league level, the fact that he can put the penny in the pot should earn him at least a late-season big squad look.
