Rumor: 2024-2025 Trade Rumors and Free Agency Talk | The Slow Crawl to the Season

Yamamoto has made good plays. That does not mean he is a good player.

I'd pass. We've already got too much of the same.

4 wins against crap teams and now our entire bottom 6 is better than Yamamoto?

Keep in mind that if Colton is missing games one extra AHLer is getting in.

Small skater who isn't speedy and has shown throughout his short career the only time he could produce was when stapled to Leon Draisaitl and Ryan-Nugent Hopkins' line for like 3 months.

Not a two way forward, not a penalty killer, not a shot blocker, not an energy guy.

Easy pass.

I'd put him in Colton's spot on the first line and keep everyone else on their current lines.

I’d pass.

Lehkonen and Drouin back over the next week, Nichushkin back in just over 2 weeks.

We’re getting healthy/clean, don’t need these scrubs.

Do we know for sure Colton is out?

Bednar hasn’t talked to the trainers yet.

Yamamoto stinks

Yeah wtf. Yamadingus f***ing sucks. We don't need that.

If we weren't a penny-pinching franchise, if Colton was out for even one game, I'd say why the f*** not. Grab him for a game or two. Then waive him. Use him like a cheap you know what.

Knowing our org, it would take two weeks to get his paperwork in order after the claim anyways.

I just thought Colton is gone for a while because I read claim Yamamoto to replace Ross and stuff

 

[Tommy Shelby]

I'd rather have Tufte over Yam and Tufte is trash

Doesn't claiming and playing a waived player actually save money for the org?

Capwise? No idea, not even talking about that. But we are talking about the team that has held on to Nikita Zadorov's old pants to this day. All the troubles with the lack of a proper practice facility and fights with the local cable provider and what else...

 

[henchman21]

It costs money to make a waiver claim along with the actual salary.

Not necessarily
